Okay two questions, is there a big overlap between Gundam fans and F1 fans?

And does this mean that Alpha Tauri is planning on blowing up the other teams?

Well I'd imagine a lot of F1 fans in their early 30s grew up watching Gundam Wing and Seed, so this might be big nostalgia bait. And they're definitely trying to grow Gundam's popularity in the US, what with the latest series being free on YouTube and all.

And if Yuki is Amuro in this crossover, his car is gonna get incredibly damaged this race because of some reckless driving, but he'll still somehow end up finishing in the points (I'd say a win, but let's be a tad realistic here).

I'd actually fucking dance if Yuki gets a win. I think that'd be great for F1, to be honest.

That seems pretty reasonable on both points πŸ˜‚πŸ€£
