Celeste Barber was enjoying a day at the Formula 1 in Melbourne on Saturday. 

The comedian was on hand to present Max Verstappen the Pirelli Pole Position Award, the pair beaming as she handed over the trophy. 

The champion driver from the Netherlands was decked out in racing gear, while Celeste kept things chic but casual. 

She paired a black blouse with a leather skirt and wore her brunettes locks pulled off her face.  

It comes after the actress revealed that she did her own stunts in her new Netflix comedy Wellmania. 

Appearing on The Project, the Australian funnywoman said she was left bruised after learning aerial silks. 

'The most full-on one I had to do was silks in a gym scene, you know those amazing acrobatic silks where you twirl up,' she told hosts Waleed Aly and Sarah Harris.

'I had to go into stunt rehearsals for three days,' the 40-year-old added. 

A type of acrobatic performance, those doing aerial silks must perform tricks in the air while clinging from one or two pieces of fabric hung from a ceiling.

Notoriously strenuous, gymgoers often take up silks to improve their strength and flexibility.

Despite their difficulty, Barber revealed her husband Api Robin had a less than impressed response to her new skill.

'I watched it with my husband and I was like, "I did all my own stunts,"  and he was like, "when did that stuff happen?"'

'I was like "that part where I fell over, three days of rehearsal to do it". I got all bruised and everything!'
