F1 Roadshow Hits Yokohama Streets

A Red Bull race car hit the streets of Yokohama Sunday, the first time a F1 machine was allowed to run off the grid in Japan.

The Infiniti-sponsored car and driver Sebastian Buemi drew thousands of fans in a charity event to raise support for Japan earthquake relief.

Buemi said F1 drivers have tried to rev up assistance for Japan's recovery ahead of a Suzuka race in October.

For many without exposure to F1 cars or its leading drivers, the Yokohama pit stop raised awareness of the sport for a good cause.

The next return to Japan for the Infiniti-sponsored Red Bull team will be the October Grand Prix, when the team may be close to clinching constructors' and driver's championships.
