The preparations for the 2024 Formula 1 season are well underway with just under a month remaining for the season’s first race. However, amidst the usual preparations for the season, a Formula 1 style of horse racing surfaced online. Hence, fans also share their opinion about this peculiar style of racing.
Major international brands own the teams in ‘The Series’, which features a mixed style of racing, akin to Formula 1. Additionally, the sport will contain an astonishing total of 48 races across the eight meetings. The prize pot for the winning team would be around at least $138k which would subsequently be divided amongst the entire crew handling the horses and players. Horses and the riders are dressed in F1-style overalls be it Ferrari, Red Bull, and even Mercedes.
Apart from this, the sport aims to attract more casual viewers to Horse-styled racing and decrease the amount of gambling in the category. Additionally, racing, especially horse racing is of great essence in the European region and hence this sport would provide a great option to merge fans from both worlds of Formula 1 and horse racing.

Fans showcase their opinions over the new form of racing
In a recent tweet on X, multiple fans shared their opinion about the entire new style of racing. The majority of the fans weren’t wholly against the idea of F1-styled horse racing. One fan hilariously bet that “the Red Bull horse is 2 secs faster than the rest” indicating Max Verstappen and Red Bull’s dominant pace in Formula 1. Additionally, another fan mentioned that the entire sport looked like fun for the fans and drivers.
Another fan asked whether the Ferrari horse combusts spontaneously, relating to a few mishaps for the Italian constructor in F1. Additionally, one fan pointed towards Ferarri’s logo and mentioned that the Ferrari horse was “one real Ferrari.” One fan highlighted that they were extremely shocked by the entirely new form of sports.

Hence, fans excitedly cheer over ‘The Series’ as Formula 1 prepares for the 2024 season. Following the 2024 season, multiple drivers’ contracts would end on the grid and hence the following season would be highly exciting with multiple changes to drivers’ status.
