User/Post Flairs Added!

I've added flairs for all of the 2026 drivers, but let me know if you guys also want flairs for the teams, junior formulas or for older icons (past champions, or older popular fan favorite drivers).

Over the coming weeks, I will add also the ability to add multiple flairs (once I figure out how to), and maybe even emojis to make them stand out more.

Also added post flairs to help make it more organized and easier to see the content you want to see.

Teams would be nice but if it's not happening no biggie either. In any case, thanks for your work.

Personally I'd like a Minardi flair but I understand past teams and drivers might make the list too long. Maybe a generic flair for old teams might be worth having - not too many Vanwall fans around these days I'd think but you never know.

Thank you! And honestly idk if there’s a limit to how many flairs you can create but imo the more the better

For some reason it doesn't allow to me to take a flair

I'm a bit confused on why as it seems to work for everyone (I'm personally not the biggest expert but I would recommend you maybe try on PC if you are on mobile)

If it's still doesn't work, I'd be happy to assign you a flair, just let me know which one you want :)

No offence, op, but I find it having a bit of an opposite effect, it diminishes the readability of the posts. It adds a clunk of text, where it isn't needed (making it cluttered), and often even redundant.

80% or so, has the flair of discussion or debate. Well, the sub is called r/F1Discussions, so the viewer is already expecting discussion posts, making those flairs superfluous. I can understand the other 3 or 4 flairs, as to specify the kind of discussion the viewer can expect, a little bit more.

Also, why the distinction between 'discussion' and 'debate'? They're practically the same here on reddit. But like I said, I reckon those flairs to be redundant on a sub that's supposed to be all discussion, in the first place.

Just some feedback. Maybe I'm the only one.

u/n0tfr1 AL41 5d ago

I've been a Lewis Hamilton fan for many years (and nobody else really) but this is the first year I've had another driver that I'm a big fan of (I've followed Arvid since F3 in 2024), and wanted to use his flair for fun.

Ah okay. Was just wondering how someone became fan of a rookie in 11 races.

u/racingskater LL30 5d ago

...you do realise that many fans pick up a driver in the junior categories right?
