Trivia / Mystery Science Theater F1

• Acting for Two: In Austria 1985 Matt plays himself and a pastiche of a game-show announcer named Jim for the MSTF1 Gymnastics segment. Matt considered it a horrible idea afterwards, and dropped the segment from future episodes.
• Banned Episode: The 2015 Indy 500 episode is considered this due to having offended IndyCar fans with jokes in poor taste.
• Creator Killer: A couple of bad runs in 2015 nearly made Matt stop making the show.
• Creator's Favorite Episode: Australia 1991
• Genre Popularizer: MSTF1 and CookP1's Season Reviews are said to be the pioneers of the "alt-F1 community" of race reviewers.
• Orphaned Reference: In Australia 2015 Matt mentions a "Felipe Blue" in reference to Felipe Nasr. As explained in the episode itself, it comes from a line that was cut from the episode in which Matt references Felipe Massa as "Felipe Baby" and Nasr as the aforementioned name.
  • He later made fun of it in the episode's remake.
• Out of Order: The episodes were uploaded out of order (up until a certain point) on the YouTube channel due to FOM's copyright claims, but there are playlists that put them in the correct release order.
• Screwed by the Lawyers: Because of Formula One Management's tight policy on its copyright and YouTube's automated Content ID system, the series couldn't be posted there, although he's since been able to fix that.
  Matt: By the way, could you take back that copyright strike? Thank you.
