Nick Saban completes 'hot lap' on Austin's Formula 1 course
Nick Saban is having some fun in Austin, Texas, ahead of College GameDay on Saturday morning.
Georgia’s top-5 clash with the Longhorns isn’t the only thing going on in Austin this weekend. The city is also hosting a Formula 1 race on Sunday.
Saban spent some time at the track on Friday afternoon. He even took part in a hot lap — in the passenger seat, of course. Here’s some video from Saban’s time on the track:

“That was fun,” Saban said as he exited the vehicle.
This isn’t the first time Saban and the College GameDay crew have enjoyed different parts of the community while on location this season. Back in September, for example, Saban and McAfee took some batting practice at Oklahoma’s new softball field.
Texas is a 5-point favorite over Georgia on Saturday, per the latest lines from bet365. The Longhorns enter Week 8 as the lone remaining undefeated team in the SEC. Two other teams — LSU and Texas A&M — are also undefeated in league play, but not overall.
Kickoff from Austin is set for 7:30 p.m. ET on Saturday night.
