The clip circulates online as a short Mbappe meme centred on his line about not being faster than the cars, a joke that works because speed is central to his reputation on the pitch. Football fans and editors have reused it in short-form videos, reaction posts and comparison edits, where the modest admission undercuts the usual highlight-reel hype. Its appeal has lasted because the format is flexible: it fits racing games, real matches, gym clips and everyday boasts about being fast. The humour stays clear even without context, which helps it keep spreading across football communities.
