Seven Star Spin

To celebrate winning the Formula One Drivers' and Constructors' Championships for the fourth consecutive year, we ran one of our Formula One cars at one of the most recognised locations on earth.

Perched 210 metres above the sea, on a helipad 24 metres wide, our 750bhp Formula One car became the first to run on the Burj Al Arab helipad in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Usually reserved for on-track use, the car was involved in a spectacular show of burning rubber and tyre smoke, against a stunning backdrop of the Arabian Gulf, overlooking scenic views of Dubai's impressive skyline.

"Don't try this at home!"

I swear to God if I had an F1 car and a big building...

Demo Tapes Vol.2: Middle East. The Seven Star Spin on the Burj Al Arab helipad in Dubai 2013. 

Undoubtedly one of the most iconic and daring locations to do a donut! #10SeasonsRacing

Of course they did, that's why it's DC in the car and not Vettel

[sanitallica]

Where is the video for how they lifted the car up there?

[Flogged_e]

Red bull cars haven’t been that high since mark webber in Valencia

[AndrewMalkin]

This building is already an icon all over the world. It is likely that the PR is equally good for both parties involved.

Sensational. Would love to try that in our cars.

[FranseFrikandel]

1:05 So funny to see them rushing in so fast to cool the car. I guess that also means they couldn't possibly spin for any longer as they'd destroy the engine.

Awesome stunt ~! Nearly every F1 race is a 90 min Red Bull commercial and they are the marketing masters of staged sporting media events and video short production for social sharing. ( I'm not bitching, I'm praising their genius ) congrats to RB on their 4th in a row !

Incrível, Coulthard foi muito corajoso.

[MusicalAndTall]

Bring it home boys. Finished the season off with all 1, 2.

[Martijn]

how did they get it up there>?< xD

[NormisF]

Really nice if you have money you can do anything what you want.

[Phieap]

Spining in circle at the top of the world.

[MLH]

That is a very intelligent comment. Also very original. Go Spin some tires.

[tcengineering]

Go do some more hoonigan/scumbagging with your awesome F1! Red Bull!!

[F-Man]

Give us a "making of" video!

[MohamedMnasria]

1. It's not drifting he's doing donuts
2. Stop hating

[timashelford]

Was it though? F1s have large control over the brakes and the spins didn't look dissimilar to Vettel's at the end of the India race.
