Driving a Formula One on eye-level camera view

Lucas di Grassi is a Brazilian Formula One driver who drove for Virgin racing last year and this year he is the official test driver for F1 tyre supplier Pirelli. Many Formula One fans does wonder how does it feels to drive a F1 car from the first person view and di Grassi did so by becoming the first time ever eye-level camera real driver point of view, driving one installation lap in Barcelona, Spain.

Quote from di Grassi “I had to drive with only one eye open as the camera was blocking my other eye, quite tricky”. Regardless, splendid effort for bringing the closest ever experience of a F1 car to viewers! Here a video for your enjoyment.
