WATCH: Now that's a national anthem! Red Bull F1 car revs 'Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika'

This weekend's Red Bull Cape Town circuit event saw former racing driver David Coulthard behind the wheel of the 2011 championship-winning RB7. 

The Scottish driver, who has 13 wins in the top tier of motorsport, performed in front of a packed crowd in Darling street, Cape Town. 

Before Coulthard started his runs though, the Red Bull mechanics had a little trick up their sleeve as they wheeled the 640kg car out in front of city hall. 

What they did next will blow your mind as the 2.4-litre V8 engine revved the tune of South Africa's national anthem Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika.
