Red Bull steals the show in America with a demonstration in Houston
Red Bull Racing made another show in Houston as they entered the city with a demo car driven by David Coulthard and Arvid Lindblad.
Throughout the year, Red Bull Racing does several demonstrations around the world. This time, the team took to the streets of Houston. There, two cars were deployed and driven by David Coulthard and Arvid Lindblad.
As an F1 Grand Prix winner, Coulthard is of course a familiar name, his colleague on the day perhaps a little less so. Arvid Lindblad was called "Red Bull's greatest talent" by Helmut Marko. A mark that the Briton may live up to in Formula 2 in 2025, where he succeeds Isack Hadjar as Campos driver.
The demonstration in Houston was one of his first chances in a Formula 1 car for Lindblad. It is unlikely to be his last appearance in an F1 car, given Marko has a plan with Lindblad. Namely, Lindblad needs to get points for his licence in Oceania to be allowed to be in action during the first free practice sessions for Red Bull this season. If those points are there, nothing will stand in the way of an official debut in F1.
