The race track is full of obstacles such as mud, footprints, dirt, garbage and leaves. The two drivers have to clean the ground while driving the “chariot”. In the first part of the simulated short-distance race, Westabourne was the first to start the engine and take the lead. Unexpectedly, Perez took a U-turn and took a shortcut to get ahead. However, because this was against the rules of the race, Westabourne took the pole position for the race.
In the subsequent main race (Clean Challenge), Westabourne maintained its lead until the late stages of the race, when there were many horse head clanging scenes. Westaben was able to maintain the lead despite Perez’s attempts to overtake him. After entering the pits, it was obvious that Westaben’s scrubber truck had cleaned up more debris and garbage. In the end, he sprinted with a big lead, drove the scrubber slowly across the finish line, won this unique world cleaning competition, and received the broken trophy from Oracle Red Bull Racing Ambassador Josh Denzel. Let him no longer have to work hard to break this record.
Perez said: “This event is really great. When I saw the ‘Chariot’ for the first time, I was really surprised.” Regarding the uniqueness of this event, Westaben said with a smile: “With the team, During our time together, I have already become accustomed to the fact that they often have many different clever ideas, and this is just one of them.”
Regarding the weekend’s F1 race, Westaben said: “The circuit of the Singapore race is very challenging, and it is a night race which makes it even more special. In addition, the weather is very warm, which also increases the difficulty of the race. So, this is definitely one of the most difficult races among all the races.”
