Watch Our Card VideoIt's a card with a race car or a driver on it! Some show the car, some show the driver, and some show the whole team.
On the back there are usually facts and stats — how fast the car goes, how many races the driver has won, stuff like that.
🤯 People have collected them for a really long time. Some kids' grandparents have racing cards from when they were kids!
🃏 Collect 'em all!
We just got some Formula 1 cards and here's what we learned:
Formula 1 cars are the fastest race cars in the world. They can go over 200 mph!
Every driver races for a team, and the teams build their own cars.
They race all over the world — a different country almost every race weekend!
Cards get bent and scratched really easily. Here's how to keep yours nice:
Fingers on the picture leave marks you can't get off.
A plastic sleeve keeps out dust and fingerprints.
Stacked cards get bent corners. A box or binder is better.
Sunlight fades the colors.
One spill and it's over.
You don't need expensive cards to have a great collection. Here are fun ways to start:
Collect every card of the driver you like best.
Collect the whole team — cars, drivers, everything.
Some kids collect cards just because they look cool. That's a totally good reason!
Trade with your friends. Show your collection to your family. It's your collection — do it however you want.
