A sturdy italic slab serif with unbracketed, squared-off serifs and a consistent, low-contrast stroke weight. The letterforms lean forward with a tight, energetic rhythm, combining broad curves with flattened, angular terminals and softly rounded corners. Counters are relatively compact, while capitals show a slightly condensed, engineered silhouette. Numerals and punctuation follow the same blunt, squared finishing, giving the design a cohesive, assertive texture in text.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and branding where an energetic, engineered voice is needed. It can work effectively on packaging and sports- or motorsport-adjacent graphics, and it holds up in short-to-medium text settings when a dense, assertive texture is desired.
The overall tone is bold and kinetic, reading as athletic and industrial with a hint of vintage signage. Its forward slant and blocky serifs convey momentum and confidence, making it feel purposeful rather than decorative.
The design appears intended to merge slab-serif solidity with italic motion, creating a tough, forward-driving voice for display-oriented typography. It prioritizes impact, crisp construction, and a consistent, industrial rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
The italics are clearly structural rather than calligraphic: stems and serifs keep crisp, squared joins while curves stay smooth and controlled. Uppercase forms present a strong headline presence, and the lowercase maintains a firm, compact texture that stays steady across longer lines.
