Why does Formula 1 have this name?

It was from 1950, when the International Automobile Federation (FIA) created the World Drivers' Championship, that the name Formula 1 became the official name. Before that, hundreds of Grand Prix races were played, but there was no formal tournament and champion. The definition of “formula” car, however, was born along with car competitions. After the first tests with existing cars, still in the last century, it was thought to lighten the weight to gain speed. The “superfluous” items, such as fenders and stirrups, were then removed. The second step was to eliminate the mechanic from the car, who participated in the race sitting beside the driver. Single-seaters, or formulas, emerged: tube-shaped cars with exposed wheels, affectionately named “cigarettes” in Brazil.
