Russian PM Putin takes an F1 car for a spin
Living dangerously for UK politicians tends to mean fiddling with their expenses or their secretaries. They certainly lag behind the likes of Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin who took a Renault Formula One car out for a spin this weekend.
The Russian politician agreed a deal with F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone to bring the multi-million pound sport to Russia from 2014, presumably finishing the negotiations with a cheeky request for a drive in one of the cars.
