About

Unleash Your Inner Drive

Bringing the pulsating excitement of F1 to the screens of fans worldwide is our responsibility; Formula 1®, a subsidiary of Liberty Media Corporation, holds the exclusive commercial rights to the FIA Formula 1 World Championship™. And from legendary circuits such as Italy’s Monza, to the glitz and glamour of the streets of Monaco, to the glittering lights of Singapore’s night race, Formula 1's close-knit team are dedicated to making that happen.

Our operations cover a huge range of disciplines across a wide array of industry sectors, drawing the very best from our teams of technicians, engineers and media rights specialists and encouraging the creativity of experts in the fields of digital and traditional media, marketing and communications. From timekeeping, to software development, broadcast engineering to content creation, we are truly the 11th Formula 1 team.

So what do we do on a race weekend? Formula 1’s most visible activity is just that – visuals. At each event Formula 1 provides the technical infrastructure needed to deliver timing services, on board cameras, data acquisition, production of the international TV feed, as well as post-production of content across each Grand Prix weekend.

Behind the scenes, however, there’s so much more going on. Trackside, we also provide exceptional hospitality programmes for guests to get up close to the sport and its stars, we look after trackside advertising, graphics and provide entertainment in the Fanzones. Meanwhile, back at ‘home’ in our London offices, we’re busy creating innovative content ideas and building new networks to bring the excitement of Formula 1 racing to new fans across the globe.

And it’s in digital content that Formula 1 is really powering forward. Driven by data, grand prix racing boasts the richest flow of information of any sport on the planet. Via multiple digital streams we’re building a hugely engaging environment in which every detail of this incredible sport can be examined and analysed and which serve to further enrich the show of Formula 1.

For more than six decades Formula 1’s unique blend of showmanship, heroism and technological precision has captivated generations of sports fans. Now it’s ready to go to the next level of engagement and at Formula 1 we’re determined to take it there – are you coming with us?

History

Since 1950 the championship has developed into a global phenomenon, and in 2016 was watched by 471 million unique television viewers from over 200 territories across five continents.
