“The introduction of the Vantage S as the Official FIA Safety Car of Formula 1® represents yet another clear step forward in the Vantage’s performance capability, exhibiting capabilities that further allow me to effectively respond quickly and safely when we receive the call for on-track deployment. I’m delighted to be one of the very first to drive the Vantage S and look forward to experiencing the world’s greatest circuits in the most performance focused Vantage to date,” said Bernd Mayländer, FIA Safety Car Driver.
