Today (March 22), Sebastien Buemi, test and reserve driver for Red Bull Racing F1 Team was at the Infiniti Centre at Chulan today for an exclusive meet with Infiniti Guests. Sebastien, a Swiss joined Red Bull Racing in 2008 and was driving for Scuderia Toro Rosso in 2009.
Surrounding the venue are the latest of the Infiniti model line-up including a delicious G37 sports luxury coupe in white, the FX37 crossover and M37 executive.
But what lays there, prominently placed on a raised platform is Red Bull Racing's RB8 Formula One car in full detail including a Vettel dummy in a helmet and race suit on.
Sebastien Buemi is no stranger to the sport, having participated in 55 GPs and now worth 29 World Championship Points.
This exclusive appearance also enabled invited guests a rare opportunity to give Sebastien a run for his money in a F1 Qualifying Race or Time Attack Challenge (in our language) on a Playstation Simulator appropriately set for Sepang Circuit.
Guests were also able to get close and personal with the F1 star in an auto/photography session.

Vettel stands still as today is pretty much all about Buemi.
Blowing the mind of car guys, and my ears this weekend!
Formula One is so fast moving, it's easy to forget that it's only been a year since the partnership between Infiniti and Redbull Racing. Entering 2012, the 2nd year of their thriving partnership between the two organisations, they are exploring further in technical collaboration and prominent Infiniti brand presence that racing in F1 provides. Perfectly relating Infiniti's vision of the Inspired Performance ethos.
As for Infiniti Cars in Malaysia for 2012, they will further expand the current range with new variants specifically targeted at our luxury car industry. There's will be a new M, the M35H, a hybrid but of course, and a world's first at that. There will also be a more funds efficient M25 powered by a 2.5Litre V6.
