SEB'S GOING TO NEW YORK

After the Canadian Grand Prix the majority of the F1 circus will be catching their planes on Sunday night to head back home to Europe. Sebastian Vettel won't be joining them...

The double world champion will, instead, be taking a slight detour and visiting the Big Apple instead. A man after my own heart... He will be visiting to undertake his role as Infiniti Global Ambassador and spend time promoting the brand. He will also be promoting next year's Grand Prix of America which will be held in New Jersey with the New York City skyline as it's backdrop. He will drive the planned circuit in an Infiniti IPL G Coupe road car; part of Infiniti's performance car division. There is no doubt that this race is highly anticipated and will be the jewel in F1's crown next year. Sebastian Vettel's visit will be a great PR stunt for the circuit planners and help them attract attention to the race and increase the buzz around it; as if they need to! I'm already excited beyond words and it's over a year away!

The German will also make an appearance on a popular American chat show; The Late Show with David Letterman. Following Vettel's infamous Top Gear performance his profile amongst British fans was significantly raised. I'm sure this appearance will be great not only for Seb and Red Bull but for the sport's profile in the USA aswell. Allowing a wide audience to get to know one of the sport's biggest personalities will, without doubt, increase at least a few people's appetite for F1. I think Sebastian is great with the media and fans so I'm definitely looking forward to watching the interview. I'll post the video on here if I can find it...

P.S. If there are any American fans reading this, will you be watching Vettel's appearance? And are you looking forward to the New Jersey race?

P.P.S. If anyone wants to buy me tickets for the aforementioned New Jersey race, I'll be more than happy for you to do so.
