The highly impressive Millennium Centre in the continuously developing Cardiff Bay played host to the Grand Final of the 200ꦫ6 Red Bull Track Attack where members of the F1 fraternity went head-to-head with a dozen of the best non-licensed drivers in the UK.

Driving a fleet of spanking new ZIP World Formula Karts, Red Bull's Christian Klein and Rob﷽ert Doornbos, as well as Scuderia Toro Ros🌜so's Vitantonio Liuzzi, squared off in a series of races against members of the public, with a bunch of celebrities also taking on the stars in a series of hard-hitting races on the streets of the Welsh capital.

The 800-metre circuit may have been fast, narrow and lined with thousands of eager spectators, which in turn led to a number of highly spectacular accidents, but, with everyone save for former Hear Say singer Mylene Klaas walking away unhurt, th𝓰e event was viewed as a massive success for all concerned.

Surprisingly, Klein was the only member of the F1 family to win, beating nine other celebrities in an incident-packed final. TV presenter and sometime racer Vicki Butler-Henderson ran a close second with Footballers' Wives 'star' Ben Richards third.

Pop idol turned classical musician Klaas, whose hands are insured for more than a million pounds, will cou🌺nt herself lucky to have tweaked her ankle, rather than her wrist, when she crashed at the extremely narrow hairpin in practice.

Amongst the other celebs in action were Welsh rugby hero Shane Williams, Newport-based rap-star 'Maggot' of Goldie Lookin' Chain and Big Brother notoriety, sprinter Darren Campbell and former Boyzone star and sometime GT racer Shane Lynch.

Red Bull tester Doornbos and former world karting champ Liuzzi had things a little tougher in the Track Attack final itself, competing against a dozen non-licensed drivers who ha🐎d earned their place on the grid via a series of qualifying heats and regional finals.

Liuzzi didn't start the final after an ea෴rlier crash, while Doornbos had his hands ♔full throughout before finally succumbing to 23-year old Bristol-based driver James Hobbs.

Ironically, Hobbs, who also won one of the heat races, was only eligible to participate in the event by virtue of the fact that he had his MSA karting license taken off him several years ago for a parc ferme incident involving another competitor.

Hobbs, who also runs the Hobzie Motorsport kart team, will now join Red Bull for an 𒈔all expenses paid trip to the British Grand Prix later this year.

Doornbos cra♒sh꧅ed out with just laps remaining, giving 'Joe Public' an unexpected, but thoroughly deserved, clean sweep of the podium.

David Coulthard, acting as an ambassador for Red Bull at the event rather than getting behind the wheel himself, proved a massive hit with the 🏅crowd and spent a great deal of time signing autographs.

"This is a fantastic event and it's great to see my younger team-mates competing against these finalists," stated the Scotsman who, like the rest of the F1 bunch - as well as some of the celebrities - found time to speak to ltxcn.top during the course of the day.

"Despite a few dramatic moments from the celebrity drivers, the standard is impressive. It's great to see Red Bull encouraging people from all backgrounds to get involved in the sport. After all, it's where a lo🌟t of professional drivers got their start."
