Race car drivers spend most of the season in a jet lagged fog. Each week they're traveling from country to country, and are occasionally on different sides of the world within days. It's tiring, particularly when you drive in the World Endurance Championship.

Not only are you constantly traveling, but you're also running races that can be 24 hours long. It's a lot for the body to take. Too much for Sebastien Buemi, apparently.

The FIA just posted this video of Buemi taking a little snooze in the cozy cockpit of the Toyota TS050 at Fuji Speedway in Japan. He's truly out, actually snoring, only woken up when Anthony Davidson bangs on the side of the cockpit.

Much like Kirk Van Houten, Buemi probably woke up to say "I sleep in a racing car, do you?" Except it isn't a kid's bed, it's a real racing car. Toyota, if you need us to take a nap in the TS050, just let us know where to go.
