VIDEO: Unknown Drivers Spotted Driving Formula Race Cars on Prague Highway

Police in Prague are searching for two drivers of Formula 3000 and Formula GP2 racing cars who were seen driving on a county highway during the night of Sunday, September 3.

Each of these racing cars weighs approximately 700 kilograms and boasts over 600 horsepower.

A video of this illegal race has surfaced on social networks.

“In connection with this incident, we urge witnesses who were traveling on the Prague ring road toward highway D5 around 00:30 on Sunday night to contact us at 158,” appealed Violeta SiÅ™iÅ¡Å¥ová, the Metropolitan Police spokesperson.

It’s worth noting that in both 2019 and 2022, the same car was observed by eyewitnesses on the D4 highway between Dobříš and Příbram.

On those occasions, with the assistance of the public, the police managed to identify the owner of the racing car, a 45-year-old Czech citizen.

The man faced a fine ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 CZK and a potential suspension of his driving license for a period of 6 to 12 months.

However, the owner, through his lawyers, claimed that he personally was not driving on the highway and did not know who was behind the wheel at that time. As the driver was wearing a racing helmet, the police were unable to identify him, leading to the closure of the case.
