The car is the ultimate, and offers you the chance to drive at the limits of what the human body can handle. This vehicle is the ultimate prize, and can only be yours once you have mastered all the challenges set out for you. However, there is a way to fast track the prize, but only if (when) Sebastian Vettel wins the 2011 F1 Drivers Championship.

Polyphony Digital said that they would do this for free in honor of the young German winning the title twice in succession. There are just five races left, and all Vettel needs is just one point to make it impossible for any other driver to win the title this year. His closest rival is McLaren’s Jenson Button; but he trails by 124 points. So you see what we mean by when Vettel takes the title.

However, we have seen in the past that anything can happen in F1, all it takes is for him to outbreak himself or fall victim to an accident that could leave him out for the rest of the season. We would not wish that on anyone, as the accident that Massa had left him off for some time. Also we have to remember the fact that Jenson will have to win every other race in order to take the title – something that will not happen.

By this Sunday Vettal should win his second title, so then you will have to visit gran-turismo.com, where they should then offer information about how to get this free upgrade. We know that you will never experience speeds of this on a racetrack, but it will still be a huge task to handle the Red Bull X2010, as it will reach speeds of just under 280mph and will be pulling 8.75Gs in the corners.

However, this time we have learned that there could be an Infiniti Sebastian Vettel RBR Edition. Red Bull Racing has a close relationship with the luxury Nissan brand, and the Japanese carmaker wants to have a much closer relationship.

This has got us thinking, as both RBR and Infiniti will be looking at this very carefully, as choosing the right model will be key to how popular the special edition version will be. Currently nothing is known about the deal, apart from the fact the 2010 F1 Champions will supply technical support. This will be a lot like the partnership that other F1 teams have had with carmakers in the past, such as Jordan with Mugen Honda and McLaren with Mercedes.

According to WorldCarFans the Vettel version is just a special edition version, and that there will be a completely new model. Going back a few years we would have laughed at this notion, but the energy drinks company who purchased the Jaguar Racing team has proven that you do not need to have a racing pedigree to make it in the sport.

Having said that, they do have some remarkable talent, and they will be using the likes of Adrian Newey to come up with some amazing design features to make this new model a success. Both companies will now be sitting down and deciding which is the best plan of action; do they go for a hatchback or saloon design.

The smart money would be on a hot-hatch with a few Red Bull logos here and there, as we all know how poplar the company is as a brand. I for one cannot wait until more news filters through, so watch this space.
