The safety car is an AMG if I recall correctly, and Lewis is always complaining they should go faster, so yes, I'm sure any road car is a dog to him. Last year, when Martin Brundle took Danniel Ricciardo for a rip in a new Aston Martin, he set the brakes on fire, so he's still got it, too.

Yes, it was pretty funny. I haven't had a luck finding it on YouTube, but I'll see if I can come across it sometime or somewhere. It was around the end of last season and they were doing it as sort of a going away deal for Ricciardo, with Aston Martin's tie in with Red Bull. It was brand new, and Martin Brundle really pushed it. When they were coming to a stop, Brundle mentioned something about the brakes being on fire and sure enough the guys came running with fire extinguishers. Maybe it was all for the best since he's doing some driving for Aston Martin this year in some endurance races.

I guess the Rich Energy Drink thing went south again. The CEO got turfed and the name of the company is supposed to be changed.
