Last weekend was Formula 1 weekend in Dublin, and Certina Watches marked the occasion by bringing a life sized F1 simulator to the menswear section. Here’s the video.

If you managed to make your way into town last weekend you may have noticed that some of the city’s streets were a little congested… with Bavaria City Racing bringing 950hp F1 cars and the like.

Spectators could catch a glimpse of the F1 cars on the street, but anyone who made their way to the menswear section of Arnotts got up close and personal with a life sized F1 simulator, thanks to Certina Watches.

The simulator gave punters the chance to drive around the National Circuit at Silverstone over in the UK and there were some serious times clocked over the weekend – none better than overall winner James Newe.

If you made it down to the event make sure to check out the video above, as you might see your beautiful self.
