me and my gf were in grief after we lost forever a "ruler of everything" video with cute/funny frogs all along the clip as it was deleted from whatever platform it was uploaded in, so I decided to recreate one, and now we found a new reason to go forward in life

WHAT A BADASS STORY Y'ALL
Poles, podiums, and the best of the rest.
Who are all these handsome young men in colorful jumpsuits that seem to have taken over your dashboard this year? And where exactly are they going in those really fast cars?????
Over the past few years, Formula 1 has spread into all corners of culture, and Tumblr is no exception. People around the world have learned about F1’s 70 years of history, its international circuits in cities like Monaco and Abu Dhabi, and its Grand Prix schedule of Free Practice, Qualifying, and the races themselves. Tumblr being Tumblr, though, it’s really all about the drivers: 20 of them per year, two for each of the ten official teams. Add in all the other assorted characters that orbit around the current grid, and you have quite the lineup to follow each weekend.
F1 and its fast boys have been appearing in our Week in Review lists as far back as 2020, and on last year’s Year In Review Athletes list, drivers took up a healthy 6 out of the top 10 spots. This year, the sport’s domination of the dashboard kicked it up a notch: There was an 18% increase in engagement with the Formula 1 tag in 2022 compared with last year, and Lestappen (aka Max Verstappen/Charles Leclerc) became the very first F1 ship to hit a Week In Review ships list on July 10, 2022.
A lot of this might have something to do with the growing popularity of Netflix’s Drive to Survive docuseries, which follows the twists and turns of each F1 season, shining a light on the personal lives of the drivers and their team members. Tumblr’s interest in the sport just feels natural: with all of its drama, excitement, and contained, charismatic, and frequently controversial ensemble cast, it seems tailor-made for Tumblr users who enjoy sports anime and adventure dramas.
So, what’s the pitch for F1? Whether you root for the underdog or support the champion, there’s a storyline for you. The interweaving backstories of the drivers, many of whom have grown up driving together since they were kids, are like catnip to Tumblr’s love for characters with history. And, of course, there are the races themselves—high-tech cars going hundreds of miles per hour. What’s not to love?
Or, as @gaslightgirlsummer puts it: these men are all millionaire tax evaders trying to kill each other and/or themselves in the fastest cars on the planet (that are worth more money than most people will ever have in their lifetimes) on a weekly basis.
Whether a longtime fan or newly interested, you’ve probably seen F1 around Tumblr this year, featuring in fan art, GIFsets, and a plentiful amount of very silly memes. But, in case you’ve ever been curious about who Tumblr loves the most, here are the top 35 Formula 1 tags in 2022, featuring not just current drivers but retired drivers, reserve drivers, upcoming drivers, race engineers, and team principals, too.

And, because it wouldn’t be Formula 1 without a Constructor’s Championship, here’s the ranking of teams on Tumblr:
at the end of the episode 2 of the masterpiece of japanese animation "Eizouken ni wa Te wo Dasu na!", you can see an endcard made by Kenichi Yoshida. And I was suuuper excited to saw this one (it quickly became a wallpaper for my phone lol).
This UFO-looking car is none other that a Peugeot 905 Evo2 (affectionately nicknamed "Supercopter"), an upgrade of the 2-times "24h du Mans" winning car from the french manufacturer, ran by a 3.5L V10-engine later used in Formula 1 and upgraded, when Peugeot teamed up with McLaren, Jordan and the unluckiest F1 team in history : Prost Grand Prix. It had their high and lows, but sadly the latest evolution of this engine broke a embarrassing record : 53 engine failures in a year!
The Evo2 never competed in any race in the end, but was used for some demonstrations and F1 development. Nowadays one of them sleeps in a secret Peugeot warehouse, and another one was sold at auction in 2011.
Only car nerds knows about the Evo2. It means that Kenichi is one of us :')
