Mark Webber’s Parliament Square F1 Pit Stop
So there I was minding my own outside the British seat of power, when I heard the distant but unmistakable roar of a Formula One motor. No? It can’t be! Holy crap I thought, and turned on my camera and there it was coming to a pit stop right on Parliament Square – The Red Bull F1 car driven by Mark Webber. WTF!? Since when have the streets of London been a race track? This isn’t Monaco. And then like that it was gone.

They did similar in New York I think it was 2 years ago. They had Brian Vickers’ car in Times Square, he came barreling down the ave and they did a full 4 tire race scenario pit stop right there. It was the last year NASCAR held their banquet there.

I like how you missed the entire effin’ pit crew standing right across the street from you.

Yep, he should have gone to SpecSavers!

so you just happened to hear the engine, you didn’t notice the pit crew all set when you where right there.
