Red Bull and the [Formula One team](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sponsorship-with-formula-1) have been know for bringing their [F1](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/red-bull-racing-rbs01) cars off of the race tracks and out onto the city streets, and the [Red Bull Racing's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rbs01-escooter) American Vacation video takes us to the busy streets of New York.

The Red Bull team took to the closed course streets of New York's busiest roads, and put the F1 racer to the test. The video opens with scenic shots and arial views of the iconic city with a roaring engine revving in the background. Next we are taken to suburban side streets and underground tunnels as the car races past at speeds of 190 mph.

Professional driver David Coulthard was behind the wheel for this video.
