Formula 1 season is nearly upon us, with the first race kicking off in Bahrain on March 20. And to bring the highest level of racing and entertainment to its fans around the world, Formula 1 has inked a multi-year partnership with tech giant Lenovo.
Over the next few years, Lenovo’s technology will be used across the Formula 1 organization, both back at its base and at races. Lenovo’s hardware devices, as well as high performance computing and server solutions will be increasingly integrated throughout the organization’s operations.
Aside from hardware computing and server solutions, Lenovo will also ensure powerful on-premises data collection to improve content for broadcast partners.
The sport will also leverage Lenovo’s next-generation technology, such as augmented reality and virtual reality.
In addition, the partnership will see Lenovo support Formula 1’s commitment to create employment and education opportunities for underrepresented groups, which includes ten engineering scholarships each year through to 2025.
“Like everything in Formula 1, precision and detail are everything, and Lenovo will be at the forefront of providing their experience and innovative technologies to our operations throughout the season,” Stefano Domenicali, President and CEO of Formula 1, said.
“Our fans expect the best from everything we do, and Lenovo is the perfect partner in terms of its premium hardware offerings. We are entering a new era of our sport and we’re committed to delivering a high-quality experience for our dedicated followers around the world,” he added.
