Formula 1 fans will have the chance to be driven around a grand prix circuit by race drivers during an F1 weekend as part of a new initiative.

After the public response where Lewis Hamilton took Usain Bolt for hot laps of Austin's Circuit of The Americas in a Mercedes-Benz AMG GT R on the Sunday morning before the United States Grand Prix, Liberty have decided to initiate their "Hot Wheels" program.

This is a nice touch.

I'd love to see a "double Minardi" type of ride as well

It's nice they say they're using competitions etc as a way of doing this, not just whoever has the deepest pockets, which is how f1 normally operates.
