A heavy, oblique sans with extended proportions and a rounded-rectangle construction that keeps counters and outer curves smooth and squared-off at the same time. Strokes are thick and consistent, with corners broadly rounded and terminals tending toward flat, cut ends that emphasize forward motion. The x-height is large and the lowercase is compact in its vertical detailing, while counters stay tight and rectangular, producing a dense, high-impact texture. The overall rhythm is wide and stable, with slightly individualized widths across letters and numerals that helps avoid a monotonous, purely mechanical spacing.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and short display settings where a fast, performance-driven voice is desired—sports identities, motorsport or racing-themed graphics, esports, product marks, and bold promotional posters. It can also work for UI title bars or feature callouts when ample size and spacing are available.
The tone is fast, assertive, and contemporary, with a distinctly sporty, techno feel. Its bold slant and blocky rounding suggest speed, power, and engineered precision—more “performance branding” than neutral text work.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch with a forward-leaning, speed-coded silhouette while keeping forms clean and modern through rounded-rectangular geometry. It prioritizes recognizability and branding presence over quiet, long-form readability.
Numerals and caps share the same rounded-box geometry, giving headings a consistent, unified silhouette. The design favors strong silhouettes and tight internal spaces, which boosts impact at large sizes but can make small-size reading feel dense if set tightly.
