Our Partnership with F1 & Ferrari
F1 and Amazon Web Services Co-innovation
Since 2018, F1 and AWS have innovated together through the power of AWS machine learning (ML), AWS’s high performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence and cloud technologies to driven F1 Insights, complex two-car Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) aerodynamic simulations, and explore new, unique, and innovative ways for fans to enjoy F1.

Transforming the Sport
AWS’s broadest and deepest functionality and unmatched pace of innovation is changing how F1 collects, analyzes, and leverages data and content to make decisions. With 300 sensors on each F1 race car generating more than 1.1 million data points per second transmitted from the cars to the pit, F1 is a truly data-driven sport.
Increasing Action on the Track
F1 and AWS are using data to improve the performance of both vehicle and driver. By using AWS high performance computing, F1 was able to run aerodynamic simulations to develop its next generation car 70% faster than ever before, creating a car that reduces downforce loss from 50% to 15%. This dramatic reduction offers the chasing driver a higher chance of overtaking and in doing so offers more wheel-to-wheel action for the fans. F1 is also exploring the use of machine learning in its simulation process, giving the organization new insights and into more than 550 million data points collected through more than 5,000 single and multicar simulations.
Getting fans even closer to the Race
AWS is revolutionizing the F1 fan experience by providing more accurate predictions and detailed distances than ever before. F1 Insights include Race Strategy (e.g Battle Forecast, Predicted Pit Stop Strategy , Alternative Stragegry etc), Competitor Analysis(e.g close to the wall ), Car Performance (e.g Hybrid Energy System) by providing a trained AI and ML model with distinct data points from the hundreds of sensors on each car, F1 enables fans to understand how drivers make split-second decisions and how teams devise and implement race strategies in real time that impact the outcome of a race.

FEERARI and AWS Partnership
Scuderia Ferrari Uses AI and ML on AWS to Innovate and Sharpen Its Competitive Edge. In partnership with AWS, Scuderia Ferrari developed a virtual ground speed sensor, off car, based on AI and ML using Amazon SageMaker and Analytics on AWS. This delivers faster, more reliable data to its engineers and helps its race teams reduce vehicle weight—in a sport where every gram counts. To evaluate the many variables involved in race strategy, Scuderia Ferrari creates models on AWS based on ML and game theory. Learn More »
