Regional characters F1 Wide leading

Summary

The F1 Wide member of the regional-leading series: the same accented place names set uppercase versus sentence case on two dark grid panels, showing the spacing the extended cut needs for diacritics.

Visual description

Same layout grammar as the F1 Black leading page. Warm cream background, top hairline ("Visual Identity / Typography", headline "Regional characters", subhead "F1 Wide", page "116"), short left body column noting that F1 Wide is cut with slightly larger default leading so set-solid spacing still clears the diacritics. Two large dark navy rounded panels overlaid with a faint setup grid: the left ("F1 Wide: Uppercase") and right ("F1 Wide: Sentence case") each show a spec line (Point size 36pt, Leading 36pt, Tracking 0pt) and four lines of white accented place names (Nurburgring, Autodromo Jose Sao Paulo, Osterreichring, Grande Premio). The extended, low-slung letterforms fill the panel width, and the comparison isolates uppercase against sentence case.

Key takeaway

Holding one fixed comparison template (uppercase vs sentence case, identical accented copy, an explicit spec line) across every weight so the family's regional behavior is documented identically. The wide cut benefits most from generous leading, and the side-by-side makes that obvious.

Reuse notes

Use as one page in the per-weight regional-leading set, paired with the Black and Bold versions. The explicit point size and leading make it production-ready. The wide cut is display-only; keep these examples to short headline strings.
