A fellow F1 fan and Twitter followed sent me a message and asked if I knew of any local groups that got together to either watch or talk about the sport. He lives in the Detroit area and I said I would look around.
I know there are most likely other F1 websites, Facebook groups or other places where people have listed their group but while I was looking in to it, I did a Google Keyword Search by region. I found the results interesting.
Perhaps Florida makes sense with all the recent talk about a potential race there and lots of motorsport fans living in the state but a few others caught me off guard. The report is for the last year and I thought perhaps New York would be higher than Nevada but then again, perhaps a race in Las Vegas makes sense.
This list isn’t indicative of the total interest or number of fans, just a Keyword Search showing the regional results for Formula 1.
With that said, I thought this might also be a place to list your groups activities in each state and city. There are other F1 fans out there and they’d like to hang out with other F1 fans but as we all watch in the early mornings, it is often times hard to meet other F1 fans.
Let us know if you have a group that gets together and where.

Where my Birmingham, AL folks at?
Good question. I know there is a terrific group in San Fran and LA.
Sorry, I don’t know where one is in Austin. Even then, I’m usually following a stream.
I believe that Circuit of the Americas has watching parties for F1 races. They have in years past.
We have a group that has been meeting for 4 years here in Berkeley California. Find us on Facebook at East Bay Formula One Group and sign up.
Join us in the Philadelphia area. SFCPHILLY.com
Although I have yet to attend, here in Toronto, people meet at Betty’s Bar and Grill on King Street. I really ought to go check that out, one of these days!
