More About Us

We’re Erin and Inna, two former coworkers turned close friends, who bonded over our shared excitement for Formula 1 and our desire to create a welcoming space for newer fans. Whether you’ve been hooked since Netflix’s Drive to Survive or recently stumbled into the adrenaline-fueled world of F1, we’re here to make your fandom journey fun, inclusive, and empowering.

Reading the Grid was born out of a simple idea: to celebrate the joy of discovering Formula 1. We embrace a fresh, approachable vibe. Our goal is to break down the sport’s complexities in an entertaining way and highlight its cultural and historical significance.

Our Story

Every week, we dive into the stories, pop culture, fashion, and exclusive moments that define F1. From the drama of the paddock to deep dives into F1-inspired books, movies, and shows, we uncover the layers that make Formula 1 more than just a sport.
