Cant see what all the fuss is about really
He used to do this kind of stuff all the time with Ferrari, and that was just as difficult to watch!
It will pull thousands into the ring for that event, and thats good PR and marketing,
And it is not that often anyone drives a full spec F1 car around the Ring, so it would certainly be an event to be at, and Mercedes will no doubt pull out the stops and have other stuff on aswell
The Germans are good at this type of thing, they have Supertourer days and all sorts there, and can you remember any time anyone in the UK did anything like this?
A legend driving round a proper old track in modern F1 car? Bit like Button blatting round Cadwell! IMagine how many would turn up to watch?
Sadly the MSA and UK people haven't got a clue about promotion, hence this kind of thing never happens. Your overpriced F1 fix is Silverstone and maybe the odd team event day where you can see a 3 year old car doing donuts and revving its tits off.
I know what I would rather watch
