Mark Webber Raced Charles Pic in Renault Twizys

Mark Webber may be leaving F1 for Le Mans next year, but it seems that the driver is also looking into other motorsport forms. For example, Webber drag raced Charles Pic ahead of the past weekend’s Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Reb Bull twitted the two adjacent images, showing the drivers going head to head in the Renault EVs. Webber drove the blue Twizzy, while Pic got behind the wheel of the red one.

Normally, we’d say that this is all just an image stunt, but there’s one thing that keeps us from doing that - the Renault Twizy. Sure, it may be a joke compared to the Porsche LMP1 racer Weber will be driving in 2014, but it’s a lot of fun.

During our Renault Twizy test drive, the thing, which is sometimes labeled as a heavy quadricycle, introduced us to a good time. Sharp, predictable handling, open air sensations and even powersliding in the wet. We're really catching Webber and Pic’s... drift.
