Drifting culture expands in Brazil through social media
Drifting is gaining significant traction within Brazilian pop culture and digital entertainment. The motorsport, characterized by controlled skidding and high technical precision, is increasingly being popularized through social media, connecting professional drivers, car enthusiasts, and artists.
Influencers such as Erick Trembala are central to this shift, using digital platforms to showcase vehicle preparation, technical training, and the behind-the-scenes aspects of the sport. This movement follows a trend where automotive content has moved from specialized magazines to mainstream digital entertainment. Other public figures, such as singer Fiuk, have also contributed to the visibility of the discipline through official competition.
In addition to automotive content, some influencers in this space are expanding their public roles to include social initiatives, leveraging their digital reach to support charitable causes.
