Formula 1 racing as of today is the biggest motorsport series in the world with viewership, but in America it is overlooked tremendously. People in America should start paying more attention to this motorsport as it is becoming very popular and could soon be reaching overseas to America.

Formula 1 is kind of like NASCAR but takes it too a whole other level with how these drivers race in the sport.

Formula 1 cars are more smaller than an average NASCAR vehicle but can reach up to a total of 223 miles an hour.

The tracks that they drive in have sharp turns and long roads, and sometimes they are not even tracks; formula 1 races can be raced on city streets for instance like the city in Monaco.

The sound of f1 cars are like howling wolves and feels satisfyingly to hear when they go 200 mph echoing throughout the cities they race in.

The drivers that get into these powerful machines are the best drivers in the world, and have the ability to making a sharp turn at 200 mph. They get into these cars without any fear and are willing to push the car to the limits every race.

If you happen to see them on tv or in person it just mind-boggling how a driver can drive at a high speed for two hours making sharp turns while other drivers are doing the same speed trying to get ahead of them.

Not only is the racing fun to watch but the story lines these drivers make up for the sport with there rival teammates.

In every team they have two drivers, but even though they are teammates they are not helping each other as they are racing for themselves for points and in the end hope to win the championship title.

If anyone is interested there is a Formula 1 series on Netflix that has been airing since 2018 and has a third season where it takes you behind the scenes of the drivers, manager and team owner in the motorsport series.

The 2021 series is coming up and if I were you I would catch the first race as it is going to be the most anticipated race with new drivers and faster cars.
