Have you ever wanted to bite into a chocolate bar<\/a> in the shape of a Formula 1 car? Well, vroom vroom, b*tch. Kit Kat<\/a> is about to make your dreams come true.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Why is this happening?\u00a0<\/p>\n

Did you know that Kit Kat became the \u201cOfficial Chocolate Bar of Formula 1\u201d in early 2025, which is a real thing that that probably threw millions of dollars at to make happen? Naturally, with a title like that, they had to follow up on their investment with something. And\u2026 voila. A chocolate racecar. Groundbreaking stuff here, guys.\u00a0<\/p>\n

You sound disparaging of this news, Ariana.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nah. That\u2019s just the way I talk. I think I\u2019m the only person at Sporked who even cares about F1 and was actually geeking out about this. But I will say, finding out this new Kit Kat isn\u2019t available in the U.S. yet did put a damper on my mood. Looks like these are rolling out to stores in the U.K., Ireland, and Australia in single and multi-packs for the time being. (According to @mouthattack<\/a> on IG, \u201cadditional markets are expected to follow,\u201d though. So that\u2019s good news.) C\u2019mon, Kit Kat. Send me a racecar chocolate bar, please?\u00a0<\/p>\n

Which Formula 1 car is it modeled after?\u00a0<\/p>\n

What an incredible question you\u2019ve just asked, reader. It really shows that you actually care about Formula 1 and haven\u2019t simply watched every season of Drive to Survive on Netflix because there\u2019s something innately fascinating about hot European men zooming around a racetrack while their (occasionally equally hot) team executives behave like literal box-office supervillains come to life. Oh, the drama. Oh, the riches. Oh, the accents.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But to answer your question: It\u2019s just a generic modern F1 racecar. They didn\u2019t get into the finer details or pick a team to model it after. Actually, now that I\u2019m saying it, I think that was kind of a stupid question.\u00a0Oh well. <\/p>\n

Anyways, can I let my freak flag fly for a second? Everyone scroll up and get a good look at that chocolate bar. Take in the sleek lines and detailed molding. Imagine how satisfying it would be to actually bite into that. I\u2019m not even blowing smoke up Kit Kat\u2019s ass engine here. I genuinely think this would be fun to eat. (Though if you charge me over $5 for it, I\u2019m gonna fly over to the Kit Kat HQ and slap their brand partnerships manager upside the head. Nestle and F1 make too much damn money for that kind of nonsense.)\u00a0<\/p>\n

So, it\u2019s just a normal Kit Kat shaped like an F1 car, right?\u00a0<\/p>\n

The official description is that it contains milk chocolate<\/a>, a Kit Kat wafer, and \u201ccrispy cereal<\/a> elements.\u201d Make of that info what you will, because it\u2019s all I got.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Wait, so who\u2019s your F1 team, Ariana?\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ha. No chance, bud. I\u2019m not asking for a fight. But I will say: Estie-bestie\u2026 call me. Please. I\u2019d risk it all.<\/p>\n
