Queerness has always had a strange relationship to Formula 1, with homophobia still being a big issue in the sport and just a handful of drivers past and present openly identifying as LGBTQ+ throughout its 76-year history. Despite the lack of formal representation, queer fans have long been among F1's most fervent evangelists, but their presence leads to important questions. What does it means to be an LGBTQ+ fan of Formula 1 in 2026? How do those fans feel during race weekends? And which drivers do queer supporters tend to gravitate towards and why?
In this episode, Lily sits down with Tasia Johnson, an F1 content creator who's also openly queer, to talk about her experiences going to races and working with brands, as well as which drivers she and her circle of fellow queer F1 fans have put their weight behind.
