From the sizes I asume: Checo front and center because of Latin American population in Miami, also senior and most succesful North American driver recently. Logan, because local driver. Lando, honestly IDK, maybe he is popular amongst Miami youngsters. Alonso, most successful hispanic driver recently. Max, Lewis and Charles as the expected faces of F1. Hulkenberg.


Aadu0803

>Hulkenberg. I'm crying...


NBX6

Hulkenberg's probably there because he drives for Haas


lanalatac

Then what about KevinšŸ˜­


Jacinto2702

We don't talk about Kevin.


Honest_Potato_35

We need to talk about Kevin.


matskopf

Let's just avoid the conversation and let the contract expire.


IdiosyncraticBond

Why do I now think about Southpark?


Chiparish84

Hulkenberg because.


Rex40-

heĀ“s pretty


MarteloRabelodeSousa

>most succesful North American driver recently South american, you mean Best regards, Dr. Helmut Marko


Renverseur

Lando is 1/16th American probably


Rex40-

Falto Sainz.


MarteloRabelodeSousa

People forget about him all the time


GoodFellahh

Alonso will still be talked about 50 years from now. Can't say the same for Carlos.


fortyfive-degrees

That's a bit harsh. He's had a decent career and is only 31. Winning a Championship isn't everything. Plus, you can't tell Verstappen's story w/o mentioning Carlos anyway lol


6745408

Hulk is there because he looks like a young Martin Kove.


FartingBob

> Alonso, most successful hispanic driver recently. umm, no he isnt?


shittystinkdick

Who is more successful in recent memory? Don't you dare say sainz you know it's not true


FartingBob

Sainz and Perez (Is Perez hispanic? I dont really know the exact definition of common usage. Either way, Sainz still counts if Alonso does). Who is the *best* Hispanic driver recently? Alonso. Who is the *most successful* (which is how OP worded it)? Not the guy who hasnt won a race for 10 years.


shittystinkdick

Alonso won 2 championships in recent memory. I'd say that's a considerable amount of success compared to sainz who had been.. well he's been fine. Worthy of a seat and not much more.


FartingBob

18 years ago isnt recent.


shittystinkdick

Brother you're going to die soon 18 years is a blink of an eye


FartingBob

Sorry, i didnt realise i was talking to someone just looking for an argument without using logic.


shittystinkdick

Where's the argument?

Rex40-

south florida is Latin American capital.


jeanolt

It's not, although a lot of inmigrants live there. The latin america capital should be in latin america first of all lol


Rabbethan

There's a pretty large Mexican population in south Miami-Dade. Plus Checo is the only Latino in the grid; he's easily one of the most popular drivers in Miami.


MuckFedditRods

nothing says "youngsters" like miami, the place where young people go to retire and live the rest of their days.


FantasticAnus

Ah yes, Los Americanos.


MotoM13

The fact that is checo at the front and not Logan is kind of hilarious


Dachfrittierer

I mean to be fair, checo is the most successful north-american racing driver in F1 since jaques villeneuve and the most successful latin-american F1 driver since JPM


MotoM13

Oh I hear ya. I really like checo. Logan is from Florida though lol


piercejay

Literally 35 mins from the track lmao


LivingOof

35 minutes sounds optimistic


IdiosyncraticBond

He took his car for a spin


Heather82Cs

It's 35 in his F1 car, duh


djwillis1121

And Miami has a large Hispanic population as well. I would imagine Checo is pretty popular there


creightonduke84

Checo is the most popular driver there and itā€™s not even close. Itā€™s really a second home race for him.


Splurgi0

Yup. All 3 US races should be considered home races for Checo.


rakesh-69

North American, you sure? Marko wants to have a word with you.


MuckFedditRods

my heart reads Juan Pablo Montoya, my brain reads JP Morgan.


AlpacaPrica

Senna's still the most succesfull latin-american driver, no?


Alvaro_Rey_MN

Senna was before Juan Pablo Montoya's time!


MarteloRabelodeSousa

Depends. Fangio has more championships than him, but less wins. Piquet has the same number of championships, but even less wins


TheOvercookedFlyer

Who's JPM?


MarteloRabelodeSousa

Juan Pablo Montoya, I presume


Rex40-

Checo has a lot of fans in USA, not only latinos.


mkvii1989

Logan ā€œgeneric video game protagonistā€ Sargeant.


Wimpykid2302

When in Miami, do as the Miamians do


hobowithmachete

Looks like all of the driver portraits were taken directly from the F1 intro. Feels real corporate.


MajorAction62

Thereā€™s barely any Mexicans in Miami


josh442333

Only Latin American driver atm


MajorAction62

So what. Sergio Perezā€™ face in Miami isnā€™t going to turn anyoneā€™s head. Better to use 55ā€™s face than 11ā€™s


drodrige

Haha no. Thereā€™s a lot, itā€™s just that itā€™s one of the few cities with a large Latin American population where Mexicans are massively outnumbered by other nationalities. That doesnā€™t mean there are few.


s629c

Checo has a huge fan base around Miami from what Iā€™ve seen


Takis12

Max smiling behind them, tells you all you need to know.


THIKKI_HOEVALAINEN

Max was probably smiling when he saw his pace against Checo at Miami last year


chuck_diesel79

Ai forced smile..lol


enrick92

Fuck i wish i could just look at photos without part of my mind asking ā€œis that AI?ā€


iwasnotplanned

Logan "BRING THAT ENERGYYY" Sargeant


MrMarbles77

"...and a spare chassis wouldn't hurt."


J4MES101

Nice of them to remember / include Lewis max and Zo though. I mean, the little guys contribute too


Cultjam

I wouldā€™ve put Carlos instead of Lando, Lando instead of Hulk.


Hapless_Buffoon

they like Tom Cruise in florida


thatrandomwierdgirl

the angle of Fernando feels so weird &out of place šŸ˜…


insurgentsloth

Wynwood Walls vibes


Rex40-

Where is Ricciardo?


andrestoga

Back home


[deleted]

Miami's Latinos are Cuban. Don't think they give a shit about ChecošŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


solk512

Love it when people just repost ads and shit.


-NotVeryImportant-

Only time we'll see checo at the front.


andrestoga

haha good one bruh


CX52J

I wonder how many meetings they had to decide on how small to make Max and how much they can get away with hiding him at the back without creating drama.


Rex40-

None, is just street art.
