The F1 Meme Iceberg Explained

[@RicksF1Addiction]

This vid took longer than expected, hope it was worth the wait I know I missed some out there but dawg. Im not making this video 10 hours long, that's saved for my "Logan Sargeant is the GOAT" rant

Btw, the Fernando is a rookie meme comes from when he rejoined the grid in 2021 after leaving for one year.

[@traiton6653]

There’s also a new meme that’s brewing. It’s about how beating Max in a race requires a blood sacrifice. See Carlos’ win after his appendectomy, and Lando’s first win after hurting his nose.

Btw, the Fernando is a rookie meme comes from when he rejoined the grid in 2021 after leaving for one year. Edit: He left for 2 years and he took part in a couple rookie tests in both F1 and Indycar

[@emmagerrianne]

didn't that meme originally came from that time renault wanted to put nando in a rookie test, while he was literally around 40 years old and a two-time f1 champ?

Btw, the Fernando is a rookie meme comes from when he rejoined the grid in 2021 after leaving for 2 years actually.

[@FattyLumpOfPoo]

​@@Cardioid2035 well it was actually 2 years

[@Chunkieta]

He left for 2 years. It was 1) the young drivers test in 2020 plus when he came back he was still good (unlike some other returners), also maybe 2) because in his first Indy 500 he had to go through all the qualification hoops for the rookies plus he went to win that award

the real reason behind the fernando rookie thing is because in Vettel's retirement video, he said he wanted to make room for new talented rookies to enter the sport, only for Fernando to take it instead

[@goldemyt7396]

The FIA seems like a meme, but it is reality☠

[@augustofranklim5409]

4:57 Fun Fact! Although it sounds sad in the video, Felipe Massa later said that he was thinking about quitting F1 then but noticed how much his efforts meant to his family, wife and fans (podium on Brazilian GP, the stands were chanting his name). He was overcome with joy, and cried as he stepped on the podium

[@s.tunafish]

Loved the video man, and I was actually really surprised how many I know even though I started watching F1 just recently.

[@katafazekas3349]

Wait... I thought the rookie Alonso meme came from 2020 when Fernando took part in the 'young driver test' with Renault before coming back to F1. He was 38 years old at the time and a 2 times F1 world champion...

In Poland we have some F1 memes too, mainly about Robert Kubica: driving by using one hand (after crash in Ronde di Andora, which is not even in Andorra), coming back to Formula 1 and beating George Russel in Williams in worse car (one point in German GP), unfinished business in Ferrari, EEEEEEE meme. Most of them are written with spelling errors (powrut instead of powrót (comeback), renka instead of ręka (arm), and nieruwne instead of nierówne (unequal)). Other popular meme is calling Formula 1 races as Formula First Rallies (Rajdy Formuły Pierwszej), because some people don't see any difference between rally and race. And we have one other nickname for Alonso: gray man from Oviedo.

8:45- very important note- fernando is being called a rookie after he took part in young driver's test at the end of 2020 season.

[@martinbojados8911]

Fernando being "El padre" comes from the spanis expression of "fathering", that is like making fun of someone or doing something in a way that creates admiration to you, like Fernando did in Japan by not saying directly to the spanish media that he was willingly giving drs to Piastri to defend from Russell, as he had just got a 20 second time penalty in Australia by defending in a non-conventional way and making a joke that if he admitted that he may be banned for the rest of the year

[@shubhanshuprakash7812]

Oscar one is also gold. In his rookie season last year (forgot which race), some jetpack guy fell on the circuit and Oscar Piastri made a face, an expression which became a meme! Missed Leclerc's "I'm stupid" big time!
