Formula 1 is considered the top form of motorsports thanks to its cutting-edge technology and worldwide appeal. Well, almost worldwide: despite Bernie Ecclestone’s efforts, F1 hasn’t really caught up in the U.S.
NASCAR, on the other hand, despite being much more low-tech, is the series to watch in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Michelle Obama booing Brave. But it remains solely an American thing.
Drivers from different forms of racing swapping seats is not an unusual sight, but it’s not very common, either. In this video, Tony Stewart climbed in Lewis Hamilton’s McLaren-Mercedes and the 2008 Formula 1 World Champion strapped himself in NASCAR’s newly crowned champion Chevrolet Impala.
Check out the video that shows the two champions drive each other’s ride at the Watkins Glen track.
