    Red Bull F1 Showcar in Cape Town
    About this Video
    It's a hard life for a Formula One driver: you travel the world visiting exotic locations like Monaco, Melbourne and Valencia but you never get the chance to go to the beach. So Scuderia Toro Rosso driver Jaime Alguersuari jumped at the chance to test drive the Red Bull Racing show car on the beach at Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. This was another first for the team as no one had ever tried to drive an F1 car on a beach before. But breaking new ground is all in a day's work for the Faenza-based team: earlier this year Sébastien Buemi became the first man to drive a Formula One car on ice and now it's Jaime's turn. Now find out how they did it.
