Star Wars creator George Lucas was Red Bull Racing's guest of honour in the Monaco paddock on Friday.
The movie mogul brought with him some of the more fanous characters from his new film 'Revenge of the Sith' which opened in cinemas across the UK on Friday.
The Red Bull team, which has a fast growing reputation for fighting above its weight both on the track and in the PR stunt department, is running its cars in Star Wars livery this weekend.
Iconic figures Chewbacca, Darth Vader, C3PO and R2-D2 were all on hand, while a squad of stormtroopers will guard the team's floating Energy Station hospitality unit throughout the weekend.
Not to be out-done the team's leading driver David Coulthard has promised the most daring stunt of all.
The Scot has vowed, that should he finish on the podium this weekend, he will pull a moonie!
"Much as I would not like to see DC's arse, a podium, if he has threatened to do that, would be the best place to see it," said team principal Christain Horner.
"As long as it has Red Bull tattooed on his buttocks.
"The weekend has gone well so far and this is a place that can throw up the odd anomaly. We don't have high expectations but we think we can take an opportunity if one presents itself."
