🇯🇵 A tradition that now belongs to the FranClub

Since last week, we’ve seen how the FranClub has been moving, fully connected to the Japanese Grand Prix.

It all started with the thousand cranes for Franco, inspired by the Japanese tradition of Senbazuru.

The idea is simple: make paper cranes (origami) with a wish in mind. According to tradition, whoever gathers 1000 cranes can make a special wish. A FranClub fan, Limapintada on X, kicked things off by sharing their crane and encouraging everyone to join using the hashtags #milgrullasporfranco and #MilGrullasParaFranco:

And the response came quickly.

✨ The FranClub is already creating its cranes

We’ve seen handmade cranes, digital ones, AI creations and messages full of intention. If you want to learn and make your own for Franco, here’s a tutorial:

And we want to showcase all 1000 cranes for Franco from the #FranClub43 👇

We will count and feature in the app the cranes that use #FranClub43. That’s the hashtag that allows us to collect them and make sure Franco can see them all together. Throughout the Japanese GP weekend, we’ll be showcasing FranClub cranes in the app.

🙏 Share your crane and your wish

Now we want to see yours.

Upload your crane using #FranClub43 on X and Instagram, and tell us here: What do you wish for Franco at the Japanese GP and for the 2026 season?

We know Limapintada and Natialcuadrado are tracking the cranes shared on X, and so far there are 874 out of the 1000 needed.

This weekend isn’t just the start of a race… it’s the start of a shared wish. Remember to always use #FranClub43 so we can see your support for Franco, whether it’s a crane or a post, and share it with him.

Let’s reach those 1000 together 🩵
