Mark Webber to thrill fans at Docklands this weekend in the 'Red Bull Run'!

Australian Formula One champion Mark Webber is set to thrill Australian fans with a taste of his high-octane expertise by crossing Melbourne’s iconic Bolte Bridge in a Red Bull Racing F1 car.

The spectacular ‘Red Bull Run’ will take place at 9.45am on Saturday 19 March as a prelude to the 2011 Formula 1™ Qantas Australian Grand Prix and opening round of the 2011 FIA Formula One World Championship season.

Thousands of spectators are expected to gather at Docklands’ Waterfront City to view the live action via super-screen and hear the roar of the Red Bull F1 car overhead. Following his bridge cross, Mark will drive the car down to the Waterfront City Piazza to greet lucky fans and Australian F1 commentator Greg Rust.

Fans are encouraged to arrive at Waterfront City Piazza from 9am to secure a vantage point. Festivities will kick off at 9.30am.

After the festivities, explore the great food and restaurants around the Docklands, perhaps sit down to some great Aussie beef at Steakhouse or dine on some fresh seafood at nearby Livebait.
