Formula 1’s great American plan seems to be working wonders right now. The sport’s popularity has never been higher in the States and the fan base is only growing. That being said, F1 is still essentially a European product being marketed to the USA. Naturally, a few things must be changed and a few alliances made to strengthen F1’s stronghold over the American market. And with Lewis Hamilton on their side, this shouldn’t be an issue exactly.

That being said, fans on Twitter have been cracking their heads over what F1 can do to make their sport more tuned to the audiences across the pond. Even though F1 boasts of a mega three US Grands Prix this year, fans still want to see more all-American collaborations in the future. This was sparked by a genius Tweet by Business Insider’s Editor, Alanis King.

She went on to write, “F1 will never be truly Americanized until I see Lewis Hamilton in a Buc-ee’s.” Her suggestion, rather demand, to pair the 7x champion with the American country store giants, one of America’s most iconic establishments, prompted fans to react and share demands of their own!
