MiniDrivers is a web series created in 2008 by Spanish animator and nurse Antonio "Adaco" Cañas to review, initially, Formula One races. He has expanded the series to include Moto GP (Mini Bikers) in 2010 and Formula E (Min-E Drivers) in the latter's inaugural season (2014-15). | |

Only Six Faces | |
| MiniDrivers (Web Video) / int_18a84025 | comment |
Only Six Faces: You'd have to rely on helmet art to know which character is which, but sometimes features like facial hair, distinct noses and/or facial features, or even crow's feet (for drivers 35 and older) make a Mini easy to identify. | |

Wheel of Decisions | |
| MiniDrivers (Web Video) / int_20a4bd8a | comment |
Wheel of Decisions: Dark Mini spins a wheel of misfortune—sometimes targeting who gets it, sometimes targeting how (e.g. penalties or car troubles). | |

| MiniDrivers (Web Video) / int_2ef005ab | comment |
Vocal Evolution: Started with raspy squeaks, and Adaco just using his own falsetto in the first season, to the series' signature pitch-adjusted Helium Speech not long after. In 2016-2017, Adaco was experimenting with pitch and through votes from his fans on Twitter, has made voices for certain characters like Dark Mini and Kimi Räikkönen more distinct. | |

The Smurfette Principle | |
| MiniDrivers (Web Video) / int_5d753b19 | comment |
The Smurfette Principle: Minigirl. Played straighter in Formula E's first few races, with Katherine Legge and Michela Cerruti making brief appearances in the series' first few chapters. And then there's Simona de Silvestro, who became the first woman to compete an entire season (and earn points) in Formula E. | |

Trophies for Michael Schumacher and Valentino Rossi. More often, Rossi uses injections and chickens against his rivals. note The former due to his nickname "The Doctor", the latter from his 9th title win when he and his crew wore shirts saying gallina vecchia fa buon brodo ("an old hen makes good soup"). | |

National Stereotypes | |
| MiniDrivers (Web Video) / int_8f7f2c6a | comment |
National Stereotypes: Played with. Aussies like Mark Webber, Jack Miller, and Daniel Ricciardo often throw boomerangs or ride kangaroos to advance. Baguettes sometimes appear as weapons for French drivers or when the race is in France. Mexican drivers like Sergio Pérez holler "Andale!" a few times per season. Not to mention they love to spice things up. Races at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX invoke cowboy tropes every now and then. The tradition of having Tsurime Eyes in racers that came from Asia. | |

Scissors (and big ones to boot!) used to be Marco Simoncelli's worst fear but in his last season it became his weapon of choice. AK-47 and grenades for Nicky Hayden. Shotgun for Jenson Button. For Dani Pedrosa, Katanas Are Just Better. Formula E's Fan Boost is shown as different weapons but has become a bit of this to Sébastien Buemi, who uses a Fan Boom bazooka most often. | |
