Hannes Arch, David Coulthard and Brian Vickers talk about motorsport ahead of the Red Bull Air Race in New York on June 19/20. The Red Bull Air Race pilot, the former Formula One driver and the NASCAR driver spent about an hour in Arch's hangar at the Linden Airport in New Jersey comparing notes on the differences and similarities of their respective motor sports. Coulthard paid tribute to Arch's courage -- 'He's got balls of carbon fiber'. Vickers said he was impressed with the skill of the pilots in dealing with the 'three dimensional aspect' of the motorsport.

About: The Red Bull Air Race World Championship features the world's best pilots in a motorsports competition based on speed, precision and skill. Using the fastest, most agile and lightweight racing planes, Red Bull Air Race pilots navigate a low-level aerial race track made up of air filled pylons, flying at speeds reaching 230mph while withstanding forces of up to 10g. The objective is to complete the course, navigating the 65 feet high specially designed inflatable pylons known as Air Gates in the fastest possible time. Red Bull Air Race pilots must pass between the Air Gates in the correct position taking care not to touch them with their wings. The pilots compete for points at each Red Bull Air Race and the one who accumulates the most at the end of the season is crowned Red Bull Air Race World Champion.
