In most cases, no and it does not have to be an F5. The average tornado, regardless of intensity, moves at about 35 mph. A cheetah can definitely run faster than this, but only for a short time as it will tire quickly. By contrast a tornado will generally maintain its speed for most of its existence, which for an F5 tornado, is usually for more than half an hour and often over an hour.

How do F5 tornadoes form from a F1 tornado?

An F5 tornado does not form directly from an F1 tornado. Tornado intensity is determined by the Enhanced Fujita Scale based on wind speeds and damage. It is possible for a tornado to rapidly intensify due to various atmospheric conditions, leading to an increase in intensity from an F1 to an F5 tornado.

Why is the biggest tornado called a f5?

It is not so much the biggest but the strongest tornadoes that are rated F5. The Fujita scale rates tornadoes from F0 to F5 based on how severe their damage is. F5 damage is the worst, it is complete destruction. F5 tornadoes tend to be very large, but aren't always. Size is not a factor in assessing tornado strength.
