Christian Horner lifts lid on 'serious talks' with Lewis Hamilton about joining Red Bull<\/h3>\n

Gordon Ramsay\u00a0jokingly accused Toto Wolff of trying to “kill” him when the Mercedes team principal gave the television star a spin around the Formula One circuit in Las Vegas. Celebrity chef Ramsay is used to working in high-pressure environments but he got a taste of his own medicine after he accepted an offer from the Mercedes chief to be driven at high speed around the Las Vegas F1 circuit, ahead of last month’s landmark race in the gambling capital of America.<\/p>\n

The 57-year-old was practically having kittens when Wolff raced the pair through the streets of Las Vegas in a bright green AMG.<\/p>\n

Footage of the lap has been shared on social media by Mercedes with British A-lister Ramsay looking increasingly white as he is thrown around the car at high speeds.<\/p>\n

As the pair start to move off, the video on X shows Wolff asking Ramsay: “What’s the fastest you’ve ever driven on the strip?”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Before the worried chef can respond, Wolff smacks his foot down on the accelerator and hurtles the vehicle straight down a straight. Ramsay responds: \u201c****! Yeah not this. Oh my god!\u201d<\/p>\n

Ramsay’s racing nightmares went up a notch when Wolff tried to make out that he didn’t know the circuit, by saying: \u201cThe problem is I have just started driving here. So I don\u2019t know where the corners are.”<\/p>\n

With the lap completed and the car brought to a standstill, a rattled Ramsay crawls out of the car and composes himself on his hands and knees on the tarmac. Before shouting: \u201c******* hell. Seriously? Is he trying to ******* kill us! Oh my god.\u201d<\/p>\n
