Johnnie Walker "Don't Drink and Drive": Jenson Button and Mika Hakkinen Drifting

Over the years, there has been an incredibly high number of attempts to convince people to stop combining drinking and driving and here we are, giving you a new attempt of this kind.

This time, the initiative comes from Scotch Whisky brand Johnnie Walker, which, willing to make sure that it reaches its goal, has brought Formula 1 drivers Jenson Button and Mika Hakkinen together for this effort.

The adjacent clip shows the two F1 drivers playing with a Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG sedan’s 457 hp to leave their signatures on the tarmac. The two perform a multitude of controlled slides in order to do so, with the result showing at the end of the clip.

There’s also a website where you can join the pact to not drink and drive - you can find it here.
