This isn't your mom's sedan, huddling down the freeway.

A Formula 1 car around Austin here is some of the best experiences, I think. 53 time laps.

Three laps is a lifetime, that's what they say.

When you say that, I just hear, do your best.

I think the thing you'll get used to the most is just the power.

You've got to be happy to be a bit scared.

I have full confidence that he can go out and drive, but it depends how quickly he wants to push it.

For some reason, Zach Brown and everyone at McLaren has decided to let me get in the 23.

The Apex car is a F2 stretched, and we were carrying 100 kilograms of camera weight.

So it's going to be an adventure, yes, certainly.

The F2 cars are still very quick race cars, but compared to that, this is just going to be a step up pretty much everywhere.

More power, more downforce, better brakes, higher cornering speeds, higher end of straight speeds, more physical forces through his body.

So through the high speed, his neck will probably start to feel a little bit more.

So it's also pretty warm and hot out here, so it's going to be physically pretty tough.

I don't think we've had a driver in the car who's not been a professional race car driver.

We get a lot of amazing perks in this job of mine, but this would be number one.

He's done the F2 car, he's done some simulator work with us, so he's had some good prep.

So now it's time to see if he can step up.

Off my head giddy, a little bit intimidated, trying to put that in its proper place.

And I just need to get in and get going, I think.

You've got to be happy to be a bit scared and then see how it goes.

But you know, there's nothing wrong if someone spins or has a little pirouette, that happens.

I think the thing he'll get used to the most is just the power.

It's the most comforting one, it's just fed to the floor and go for it.

But a Formula 1 car around here, sector one, the high speed corners, it's double as quick.

It feels even more than that when you're in the helmet on, you're low to the ground.

So getting used to the high speed corners for him is going to be the biggest challenge and the one I'm most excited to see.

You don't want to hit that big orange bit.

Downshifting here, but this is fast, fast.

One gear down, hard on the throttle, back to the right.

Sacrifice the first one to get a good exit here.

No, you want to hit 170, but you hit almost 200 here. 200 meter board.

And then you almost want to be on throttle as you hit the apex.

Depending on how committed you are, this will be flat.
