A new social media has arrived – though if we’re being honest, it looks pretty familiar.

Meta made waves on Wednesday evening with the launch of Threads, a Twitter competitor that integrates with Instagram and has future ambitions of operating in the Fediverse, an open-source collection of various social media servers that talk to each other seamlessly, including recent services with niche popularity like Mastodon.

The platform hasn’t fully rolled out yet. It still has some hurdles to work through in the European Union and a web interface isn’t available at the time of writing. But with more than 20 million signups in the first 12 hours, Threads has already begun to see major names flock over from Twitter, Instagram and elsewhere.

That includes many key figures from the motorsports industry. If you want to find your favorite driver, track or figure, here’s a quick guide to finding them all.

Feel free to toss me a follow while you’re at it. I’m @AaronBearden93. 

Last updated: 7-7-23 at 2:30 p.m. ET. Will be updated with additional racing series as times allows.
