BLOCK VS HAMILTON
I
N LATE MAY THE opening
stage of the 2014 Red Bull
Global Rallycross series went
down in the tropical island of
Barbados. The race would feature
the likes of Ken Block, Scott
Speed, Tanner Foust and Nelson
Piquet Jr burning some serious
rubber and flying through the
air around the newly renovated
Bushy Park Circuit.
£ It’s On!!!
This however would not be the
only petrol fuelled excitement to
happen on the Caribbean island
that weekend. In what would
turn out to be the most raved
about and hyped part of the
entire weekend, the Top Gear
Live crew had managed to set
up one of the craziest car racing
exhibitions ever seen. The world
famous BBC TV show managed
to pull some real strings in order
to present ecstatic petrol heads
with Rallycross / Gymkhana
phenomenon Ken Block racing
one-on-one in his Hoonigan
Racing Division Ford Fiesta
Rallycross car against British
F1 championship hopeful Lewis
Hamilton in his full 2013 F1 spec
V8 Mercedes. u
