    So I was this beast for a weekend stroll when I stumbled upon the Shanghai F1 Grand Prix and I noticed it seemed quite happy in this setting.

    Some TCR International Series and Porsche Carrears drove by:

    When the F1s appeared it became very excited and wanted to take all these selfies with Soft Tire (yellow rimmed) compounds, a most strange behavior. I was dragged into some of these pictures...

    And here's one during the race!

    Too bad it wasn't noticed by anyone on the Mercedes AMG Petronas team (or any IWC reps) there - the owner would have loved to get some backstage/pit lane access courtesy of this beast while taking it out for a weekend stroll!

    Congrats to Mercedes for the one two win!

    So, what do you guys think? Does it seem quite well suited to this type of environment?

    Grands Prix always provide a great day out. Fortunately, there wasn't too much splintered carbon fibre on the track after the race. Just a few toys thrown out of the pram by one of the Mercedes drivers.
