* HarsherInHindsight: In episode 1 of ''Zero'' (the episode was released in April 1994), Hayato and Randoll nearly got killed when Hayato first discovered the Zero Zone, their cars collided and Hayato's car went off the track banking in the 5th race in England. A month later, the San Marino Grand Prix happened. It got the point where even ''the staff'' have heavy feelings for the scenes.

* AluminumChristmasTrees: As much as they make the cars look futuristic, there have been six-wheeled F1 racers before: Tyrrell had experimented with such a model in the mid-[[TheSeventies 70s]], but it didn't catch on.
** Asuarda's effect fans gives the car more downforce for better cornering, which doubles as cooling fans for the engines. Does [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brabham_BT46 this]] remind you of anything?

* TheProblemWithLicensedGames[=/=]SugarWiki/NoProblemWithLicensedGames: There are several official games released for the Game Boy, SNES, [=PS1=], Gamecube, [=PS2=] and [=PSP=] and doujin PC releases as well, with the games raging from great (at best) to mediocre (at worst). Almost all of them [[NoExportForYou never made it to the overseas]] although the SNES version was released under a different title called ''Cyber Spin''. The latest doujin game, ''SIN Vier'', has even received the approval of Sunrise themselves and got an official release outside of Japan thanks to Steam.
* SpiritualAdaptation: The show could pass off as a modern-day adaptation of ''Anime/SpeedRacer'' with a Formula One motif slapped on it. More obvious when the staff originally wanted to make this in the style of the former.

** As much as the cars' outlandish looks feel unrealistic and only driven by RuleOfCool, when an actual F1 team was asked to design a "ruleless" car many years later (the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Bull_X2010 Red Bull X series]] cars featured in the [[Videogame/GranTurismo Gran Turismo]] series) the result ended up looking like straight out of the OVA. Bonus points for Red Bull designing said cars between 2010 and 2014 - close to the timeframe of the series' TwentyMinutesInTheFuture setting.

** In ''SIN'', Kaga retires moments after the final race of the season after claiming the drivers' title. In 2016, Nico Rosberg did the exact same thing, announcing his retirement after claiming the World Drivers' Championship in the Abu Dhabi GP.

** Hayato comes dangerously close to being this in ''SIN'', especially when he obtains the v-Asurada AKF-0G. The only things that prevented him from being this are a few engine troubles and some badly adjusted machines. The PlayStation game takes it further, [[spoiler:Only to be defeated by Shiba at the last second of the final race]].
** Kaga also skirts the line in ''SIN'', as he tries to control Ogre, [[spoiler:which leads into beating Hayato in the final race]].
