In preparation for next year's United States Grand Prix, Red Bull Racing sent a show car over to Austin, Texas to take part in a series of events to promote the race.

The car, driven by ex-driver turned commentator David Coulthard, performed a number of runs across a Texan wild game ranch, where it was hounded by cowboys on horseback.

The trip wasn't without its problems - a planned public demonstration had to be scaled back, after required paperwork failed to materialise. The team did eventually manage to film the car running on the streets, albeit with a closed set. Red Bull were said to be looking to film in unusual locations on this trip, a spokesman for the team told local reporters, "We want to get a race car and put it in atypical locations. It's always fun to get it off the racetrack".

A demonstration run on the new, and as yet unfinished Circuit Of The Americas track, sealed off a busy weekend's promotional schedule.
