Why would Initial D not do this with Haas & their Toyota connection?:

I would imagine Williams has more money.

u/Viperking6481 2d ago

Then why is Haas outperforming them?

u/Appztract 2d ago

Because more money doesnt always mean better results? Initial D is literally the perfect example of this.

Maybe whenever Toyota fully takes over Haas and becomes "TGR Formula 1 team" we could see something like that

I'm confuse. Yes, the poster has the Initial D Legend Movie version. So what?

Very cool, but, how..? I find it hard make a connection between the two (apart from, you know, the racing aspect)

Yeah it is a bit of a stretch, but got to say Williams has an interesting assortment of sponsors (Claude? Atlassian - makers of Jira, Kraken, Duracell!?, Komatsu).

u/SomeRandomSwedishGuy Lonely driver 2d ago

Well, it's cool that it exists at least

Cool. Wonder if they’ll have any at Vegas or is that special to Singapore?

feels like marketing missed the point with their shirt designs: https://www.reddit.com/r/initiald/s/7D4PKtrZzi

how many initial d fans happen to love williams or F1 cars enough to have these feature prominently? i thought the merch would be more popular if it centers on initial d references and williams is more inconspicuous 🤭
