The Formula 1 theme was composed by Brian Tyler and introduced in 2018, when Formula One Management refreshed the sport's presentation after Liberty Media's takeover. It quickly became part of TV intros, podium-related edits and race weekend content across social platforms. The short sting is especially popular because it signals top-tier motorsport in seconds, even outside actual F1 footage. Online, it often appears in parody intros, highlight edits and clips that need the same kind of dramatic build as crowd cheering at a major sporting event.
