New F1 Fanatic T-shirts and mugs available
F1 Fanatic updates
F1 Fanatic T-shirts and mugs are now available in three different styles starting at just £8 (plus delivery costs).
Since launching the original F1 Fanatic T-shirt in July I’ve been looking for ideas for different designs to offer.
These two new slogans were picked a couple of weeks ago and have been transformed into simple and stylish T-shirts by motorsport apparel specialists Unlap.
And for the first time you can also get all three designs printed on mugs as well.
All three mugs are priced at £8 each. The two new T-shirts with front printing only sell for £14 and the original T-shirt with printing on the front and back is £15.
All the T-shirt is made using 100% cotton with styling features including ribbed neck knitted with Lycra, hemmed sleeve and bottom, taped neck from shoulder to shoulder and twin needle stitching for extra comfort and durability.
“Second place is the first loser”

It’s been said time and again in motor racing that the only place that matters is first place.
“Second place is the first loser” sums it up quite neatly.

“Real racers don’t need team orders”

Enjoy your coffee with a teaspoonful of controversy?
This design was inspired by the vocal response on the site to the most controversial moment of 2010.
It’s expected to be liked and loathed in equal measure!

Brilliant stuff, but I think I might go for the plain F1 Fanatic mug and T-shirt. :P

How about ‘Only Mugs use team orders!’
Michael said on 22nd November 2010, 23:34
Awesome! Love this team orders one :)

Me too.I am getting it for the son whose best friend is a Ferrari fan!! LOL!

Perfect.

Genius… great stuff…

Oh wow i’m definitely buying a mug. Great stuff.

Those new mugs kind of look like an Alonso slugfest..
team orders would of been fine if Webber was in second place at Abu Dhabi…

No surprises there.

Like I said, some will like it, some won’t.
damonsmedley (@damonsmedley) said on 23rd November 2010, 0:08
Well it isn’t really an ‘Alonso slugfest’ because we know very well that Alonso can win without team-orders. It was the team’s decision and a poor one at that – so if anything it is a light hearted joke about Ferrari.

A great follow up mug design would be ‘save some fuel’
Brian Baum said on 23rd November 2010, 16:00
Perhaps you should send one to David Coulthard… I’m sure he would love to remember all the times McLaren had him switch places with Mika.

It’s nothing to do with Webber or Alonso. It’s a slogan on a mug.
Cool new designs Keith :)

alonso is probably the best driver in f1 at the moment. he doesn’t actually need team orders.
BasCB said on 23rd November 2010, 8:04
And he showed it this year. If he had had a less ragged first half of the year, he might have won the season without any need for teamorders.
Great idea for a mug.
Tiomkin said on 23rd November 2010, 21:53
The Best driver is the current world champion, NOT Alonso.
Louis said on 23rd November 2010, 14:55
Presuming you mean if Web was 2nd and Alonso was 3rd?
Yes it would have been fine, because at that point Vettel can’t win the WDC anymore (mathematical impossibility), so Vettel must think about what the best result for the team — in this case having one of their drivers be WDC — a goal which he can accomplish by letting Mark through.

Nice but it’d have a lot more controversial to do have a mug with “Fernando is faster than you, sorry.” Although it probably wouldn’t sell very well. :)

Oops meant – Nice but it’d have been a lot more controversial to have a mug with “Fernando is faster than you, sorry.” Although it probably wouldn’t sell very well.
Jarred Walmsley said on 23rd November 2010, 1:25
I’d buy one of those, also Keith an idea for a future T-Shirt could be
“Stay cool Felipe baby stay cool”
I’d certainly buy one of those, don’t know about anyone else though
Fixy (@fixy) said on 23rd November 2010, 14:32
I’d buy that too.
Toby Bushby said on 23rd November 2010, 1:20
Love the mugs, Keith. You could run with famous slogans/quotes from each season as time progresses eg. last years mug could have said “Felipe baby, stay cool”.
I particularly love the team orders mug, but am slightly disappointed I can’t buy one that says “not bad for a no.2 driver” on it. :D
Jarred Walmsley said on 23rd November 2010, 1:28
damn, you just bet me to it.
K said on 23rd November 2010, 1:22
Are you serious? Is it April 1st already?
How’s about “Real Racers Don’t Need Their Team-mate’s Front Wing”?
I’d consider buying F1 Fanatic merchandise if there were some interesting and original designs. I suggest having some kind of a competition to see if any readers can come up with something better,here’s one to kick it off:

Actually I think that would look better as a hoody!

Awesome love the designs prints.Now when & where are they given away for free??
Adam Tate said on 23rd November 2010, 2:02
Love the team orders one Keith!!!
sato113 (@sato113) said on 23rd November 2010, 2:15
how about ‘to finish first, first you must finish.’ if that were on a mug i’d definately buy one! might still get the ‘second place is the first…’ mug tho.
Regis said on 23rd November 2010, 2:36
Real Racers don’t need team orders…
That means there are no real racers in F1
SparkyJ23 (@sparkyj23) said on 23rd November 2010, 10:18
Why do think we the guys who HAVE to overtake at ANY cost are so rare in F1 (Kamui Kobayashi & Lewis Hamilton being the standouts) most of these guys drive like they stole it for Q3 then sit happily waiting for the guy ahead to fall off the road.
Funny how overtaking increases when someone pops up to actually try it
Max Feedrate said on 23rd November 2010, 3:23
Eight quid!? Isn’t that something like $13 U.S.? Christ, I thought the prices were bad here. Maybe if you tossed in shipping but, then, you’d have to come up with something not blatantly obvious but really creative like “RACECAR spelled backwards is RACECAR”. I know it’s in between seasons but, give me a break….
Toby Bushby said on 23rd November 2010, 3:44
I don’t know if it’s the same in the UK as here in Australia, but here, if you’re not a multi-squillionaire corporation, merchandise costs alot to get made. ;) I’m guessing that’s the reason the prices are what they are. The less you get made, the higher cost per item to get it made.
Probably best to think a bit before complaining, especially when there’s plenty of free stuff available from Keith – like only the whole flippin’ website. :P
Dane said on 23rd November 2010, 4:02
Max, its not compulsary to buy one

just ordered a mug.
US_Peter (@us_peter) said on 23rd November 2010, 4:16
Great designs Keith. I particularly like the team orders one.
Jameson said on 23rd November 2010, 5:19
I love the mugs! Can I have a pair shipped directly to Ferrari with attention to Alonso?
