Current Formula 1 champ Sebastian Vettel joined Michael Schumacher, Sébastien Loeb and other top drivers in taking a few laps of the Race of Champions in a Tesla Roadster.
The battery-electric sports cars made a series of demonstration runs during for last weekend's races, which pit the best drivers against each other in identical cars. The Roadsters were prepped with roll cages, carbon racing seats with safety harnesses and big honkin' kill switches just in case.
The laps weren't blisteringly quick, but it's cool to see these guys having some EV fun. Videos below.
