Gear for the backpacking Formula 1 fan

We love racing in all its forms, but no series captures our imagination quite like Formula 1.

Pirelli

It’s the pinnacle of racing, where money is no object and the technology is ground-breaking. And with exotic locales like Monaco, Silverstone and the Yas Marina circuit, the entire series is one brash, beautiful spectacle.

One day we’ll get to join the F1 circus, and we’ll be paid to sip champagne alongside supermodels in locations found only in James Bond movies. But until that day comes, we’ll be joining the thousands of fans in the stands on race day.

And for those of us who have to travel to get to an F1 event, we’ll be showing our team spirit by hauling one of these kick-ass F1 team bags.

Scuderia Ferrari Ferrari 2016 Replica Backpack

It’s called “Ferrari Red” for a reason, so when you’re looking to support Scuderia Ferrari while on the go, show off a bit with this Scuderia Ferrari 2016 replica backpack.

With a Ferrari logo up top, a Puma logo on the bottom, and the Italian colors in between, this backpack is oozing with style. Yeah, it comes with the things you expect from a backpack, like lots of pockets and adjustable, padded straps.

It’s also got a shockproof laptop compartment, so you can take your work on the road without having to settle for one of those clunky shoulder bags you see on the shoulders of every business traveller.

And at $99.95, this is probably more affordable than one of those laptop-only bags, too (SEE HERE).

Sometimes simple is best. The Mercedes AMG Petronas 2016 backpack eschews a screaming-loud color scheme, instead opting for a simple and clean black colorway. Outside of the Silver Star up top, plus the AMG Petronas F1 team logo, nothing about this backpack screams “racecar.”

It’s got the things you expect out of a backpack, like side mesh pockets, padded straps, a breathable padded back, and durable zippers. It’s the perfect size for carrying around your 1:43 scale W106 racecars, so you can whip ‘em out and make “vroom vroom” noises while on the go. Or just carry normal things, like your camera, phone charger, and maybe your collection of Lewis Hamilton tees.

At just $65, this Mercedes AMG Petronas 2016 backpack is cheap enough for you to buy two. That way you have a bag for both your Hamilton and Rosberg scale racecars (SEE HERE).

Red Bull Racing 2016 Replica Backpack

In between the flashy red of the Ferrari backpack, and the understated black of the Mercedes bag, this Red Bull Racing 2016 Replica Backpack sits nicely in the middle – grabbing just the right amount of attention (SEE HERE).

Business travelers will admire this bag’s durable polyester construction. Bros down with the Global Rally Cross series will be stoked on the contrasting red and yellow zipper – not to mention the tasteful Red Bull camo accent.

Side mesh pockets let you carry a couple of Red Bull tall boys, so you can get your wings on the go without can sweat making your bag all moldy.

It’s also got a big-ol’ padded pocket to protect your laptop. Use the main pocket to carry power cords, phone chargers and an extra four-pack of Red Bull Orange Edition.

For those of us who work in content creation, we dream about making something as epic as Hackett London’s “Coolest Pitstop Ever” video. If you haven’t seen it yet, open up a new browser window and check it out right now. We’ll wait. In it, the storied English menswear brand highlights their unique partnership with Williams Martini Racing. It’s a visually arresting video, so again, if you haven’t seen it, watch it now (SEE HERE).

Hackett London is the official menswear supplier for the team, helping ensure that this historic racing brand remains as stylish as ever. While the Hackett suits worn by the team cost a pretty penny, the Williams Martini Racing 2016 duffle bag is a lot easier on the wallet.

At $165.95, this bag offers a clean, preppy style. Lots of storage compartments make it easy for you to carry and organize your gear. The navy and white color scheme is stylish without resorting to the “look at me!” patterns seen on most gym bags today.

Best of all, it’s got the iconic Williams Martini Racing stripes integrated in a subtle, yet eye-catching way. Top it all off with the Martini logo on the end cap and you’ve got a bag that works everywhere from the airplane to the polo field. Suit, pit crew helmet and goggles not included.
