Per drives Formula 1 racing car in Germany
Per's dream came true last week when he was allowed to drive a McLaren Formula 1 racing car in Hockenheim, Germany. The car wasn't their official race vehicle, but a 2-seated version (on the left in picture) for promotional use.
Per is known for being a Formula 1 enthusiast. He had to pay 200,000 SEK (almost 20,000 USD) to get this chance. However, not everyone even if they have the money is permitted to drive the car. McLaren only lets people with promotional value to test their Formula 1 car.
Per was in the car only as a passenger. The person who drove was McLaren's test driver Darren Turner.
