How Cartoons came back into F1 fashion.

It's been several years since I read the Beano or the Dandy for that matter.

But recently Formula One has become famous for it's cartoons and animations.

Who knew that cartoons and Formula One would work so well together. 

The first use of cartoons that I saw was @F1Cartoonz

Word spread from twitter followers about these cartoons and recently F1Cartoonz collaborated with Marussia Virgin for promotion of the British GP Marussia Virgin weekend.

All this in less then 6 months of self promotion. 

Not bad at all.

The next lot of cartoons comes from @cirebox and is being promoted on the Lotus Renault facebook page.

They range from general F1 comedy
(I do love the use of Michael Schumacher's walking stick in this picture)

To Lotus Renault race results.


Even Toro Rosso release cartoon strips has press statements after every race.
Genius.




These are the good/funny cartoons.
Nice to see in the serious F1 world.

Unlike this.
Which, is HRT's attempt at animation.
Now I know that HRT barely have a budget for a car but they should of saved the £5 spent on this to put towards getting some better car stickers.
But bless them for trying.


I would like to show you my attempt at a F1 Cartoon.
But sadly HRT actually did better...Which is very bad times for my F1 artistry career.
Oh well back to the day job.
