UK-based Formula 1 racing team Infiniti Red Bull Racing will showcase its RB7 Formula 1 car at the Top Gear Festival, in Durban, next month.

The RB7 raced in 2011, helping the team to defend its 2010 World Championship titles and win the 2011 Drivers and Constructors World Championships.

The car took pole position for 18 of the season’s 19 races – a new record in Formula 1 – and went on to win 12 races, achieving three one-two finishes in that year.

It also set ten fastest laps over the season; the most the team had ever achieved in one year.

Red Bull junior team member António Félix da Costa would be behind the wheel of the RB7 on the street circuit, while Top Gear resident driver The Stig would be the driver on specially laid tarmac inside the Moses Mabhida stadium.

Top Gear trio Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May would host the June 15 and 16 festival.
