F1 is a fantastic sport to watch but over the years I've found that I have learned the most from watching the practice sessions, The commentary in the practice sessions teach you soo much about the sport that you just don't learn otherwise and most people don't watch them.

slight note, this video was from 2015-ish and since then, a few tracks have been replaced and the order of others has been somewhat re-though out as part of F1's attempt to limit their envrionmental impact of having hundreds of shipping containers always moving at the same time. So the logistics, whilst still extremely complex, are not quite as obscenely over the top now.

In 2008, I think, I worked at MAN in Eugendorf, when Red Bull ordered 20 trucks for their teams. 10 in Red Bull Racing colors and 10 in Torro Rosso colors. Two thing I learned back then, 1st thing is, Red Bull colors are patented. On two RBR trucks the side wings weren´t painted inside and we asked for the color code. RB said that the color is patented and asked how much color we need so they can bring it to us. 2nd when the drivers came to pick them up I talked to one of them. One driver said it just like that. You arrive on the track, first you park in for hour or two. The distance between trucks and trailers is measured with an laser and the tolerance in the distance is about 1cm. Then you get out and start polishing the truck and the trailer starting from the top and all that at 30°C plus.

The unsung heroes of F1 is the mechanics and their families who have to live with it. This season is 22 races long, original 23! And the mechanics are the first on site, they literally builds an city on each race in Europe, it's a little bit easier on the fly away races as they uses hotells instead of the large container structures they use in Europe. And they are the last to leave after tearing everything down. And after mechanics comes chef's, waitresses, marketing people, medical staff, trainers, drivers and general staff. I would like to call the logistic planning of F1 an highly precisely military operation, but that would been an insult to F1, they have to it better. :P

I talked with the driver (who had started his journey from the UK days earlier) and his truck was carrying Sebastian Vettel's '07 Toro Rosso to St. Petersburg Russia as Red Bull had a show there. The truck really stood out since you don't typically see those kinds here. The driver was nice enough to give me and my son brand new Red Bull caps too :)

And don't forget, not only do you have all the people mentioned in the video, hundreds per team to go to the race and make it happen. But there are dozens or hundreds back at their Race Head Quarters scanning over Terabytes of data per second that is transmitted to them to examine the car and it's condition in real time, while being thousands of miles away. It's similar to watching a crew in front of a bunch of monitors looking at data, with headsets on during a NASA Rocket Launch. I can't believe in all the years I have been watching, I have yet to see a single hiccup that prevented a team from participating in a race. It may have happened and I missed it, but I haven't see it in my time. A truly incredible feat of logistics.

Hey Ian, I'd call it impressive logistics, rather than insane. I've worked in local aussie motorsport for decades, and I can tell you the logistics is quite interesting. Once you're used to the processes, it's just routine, not stressful. We'd start pack-up sometimes on the Saturday night if we knew we couldn't use it on Sunday. By the time we got to the end of the last race on Sunday, it was pretty much just toolboxs and cars to roll into the transporter. We're generally packed and on the road within 1hr of finishing. F1 is a different level, but seeing the way the mechanics go to work at Melbourne is very impressive. Supercar logistics is pretty similar. If you like F1 transporters, check out the Supercar B-double transporters, they're more impressive. The motorhomes and transporters don't go to the fly away races, so the paddock is not as glamorous/impressive, but still very cool to see. One minor correction for fly-aways perhaps, the sea freight is anything not mission critical, so hospitality stuff mainly, but also I think garage walls and other non-essential items. Engines, spares, tools, pit stop equipment, IT infrastructure all goes by air. RBR published an article about pack-up www.redbullracing.com/int-en/bulls-guide-to-pack-up and they also put out a few videos about preparing for an event, very intriguing and impressive. Ian, you mention the number of people involved, F1 used to be ridiculous, but in recent years, a personnel cap was introduced. If memory serves, it's about 80 crew/operational + marketing and hospitality, prior to that, teams would fly out 200 people

In the late '80s-early '90s IndyCar had entered the entered the same ballpark as F1 and posed at least a little bit of a threat. Most notably in 1993 when reigning World Driver's Champion Nigel Mansell switched from F1 to IndyCar and the IndyCar grid had 3 former F1 World Champions in Mansell, Mario Andretti and Emerson Fittipaldi, as well as IndyCar legends like Al Unser Jr., Bobby Rahal and a young Paul Tracy. Now due to a number of things, but most notably the CART/IRL split, IndyCar isn't anywhere close in terms of money and prestige. It does seem to be gaining momentum, however and has been producing some very entertaining racing.

Nowadays with scanning and tracking happening along the entire route, it's surprising that anything goes missing in transit. But it sill does...

As a spectator, the first thing you need to do is choose a driver and team to support. Without that, you’re just watching a bunch of cars do laps. Then you need to look at the circuit you plan to attend, and decide which part of the circuit would suit you the most. For instance, a long straight where they build up enormous speeds, isn’t going to give you much of a vantage point because your driver will have passed by before you realise it. I find the best place is on a hairpin, if there is one, so you can see the cars coming towards you as they slow down to take the corner, and accelerate away. So think carefully about where on the circuit you want to sit. Then you need to find out if there’s a stand there and how much the ticket for that stand is going to cost you. Watch previous events at that circuit to see what your viewpoint would include.

As someone working in Logistics its not that insane or crazy but rather very good organized and trained crew. If you setup something like this it probably will be stressful but with getting a routine and a good organized system, it will be relative speaking not that difficult to maintain that system. Logistic usually gets difficult with bad planning or workers not able to operate at a needed level of competence and speed. Sure things can always ruin your plans but beside that preparation is everything.

They have mobile manufacturing for laying up smaller carbon fiber components. Larger ones may need to be made in the UK and overnighted, sometimes on a dedicated flight, to the race track for use. The teams often have dozens of engineers monitoring the race from their home base and feeding information to the team during the race. It is genuinely a dance of insanity, therefore a wonder to watch.

FYI about the races: to really understand what's going on you need to also use live timing. You have to subscribe to live timing separately and it gives you all the data during the race, also more radio comms between the drivers and the teams though that is pretty useless. You will not get the same experience as the commentators do not list constant lap times, they will not do a good job of telling you who is suddenly pushing to catch the guy in front out, who is suffering with degradation of the tires, and who is overall just not having good pace. I set up my race days by having live timing on my iPad and then the race broadcast on my main screen. I've had the situation where I was abroad and had no way of watching the race live on tv, but I did have live timing. I watched the race with only the timing screen, no live footage or commentary at all (in hindsight I could've probably gotten a hold of a radio broadcast), and I thoroughly enjoyed the race and knew very well what was going on just by looking at the timing data.

Can't help asking myself if the "Qualifying specials" (Engines with 5.5 bars of turbo boost pressure and 1400 + hp that were only good for around three laps, sometimes called grenades, and super soft qualifying tires that would also only last around three laps) of the 80s and before added to the logistics. By the way, it would be fun to see you go to some event, maybe Pikes Peak or so, and report directly. Of course I know nothing about what you're allowed to film and not so I don't know what's possible.

Think about this old saying: ""A CHAIN IS ONLY AS STRONG AS ITS WEAKEST LINK"", one person is sick or hung over or doesn't secure/strap something correctly and BOOM, WTF, OVER when unpacking time comes. THEE HUMAN RESOURCES RESPONSIBLE for those ""MOVES"" is even more fascinating!!! The amount of oversight & the trust involved, people come and go, but the person doing a particular job/duty has to do it PERFECT EVERY TIME, just like the drivers, one little bit off & BAM, INTO THE WALL YOU GO!

The "green mountain scenery" wont be making an appearance during the race, but the most unique race track is obviously Monaco, because it is part of the city itself.

Each team is limited to 50 people for logistics on site. Most also bring their own hospitality staff. They contract locally for carpenters, electricians and such as well as freight handling. And customs can be a nightmare outside of the EU.

F1 is one of those rare sports where you can't watch things from even a year ago because they're dated unless they're documentaries, You have to watch things from now and be in the now to understand the current crop and lay of the land. If you do want to watch some funny and interesting documentaries on f1 or even the junior formulas f2,3 ext I recommend you watch the KZbin channel Josh Revell he has many fantastic videos.

I'm probably going to get shit for this just because the way the show is now and I didn't look through the comments enough to see if anyone mentioned drive to survive on netlfix for this guy lol. It's what got me into when it first aired and been dedicated to learning the sport ever since.

I'm sure you've heard how F1 pit crews practice pit stops over and over to perfect them? Their assembly/disassembly teams probably use the same philosophies and techniques over the off-weekends and breaks! Anyone into furniture flat-pack assembly speed-running should probably consider this profession for a career move 😄

Although this Vid seems pretty accurate it is a touch out of date. There have been many changes in recent years and the the sport is working hard to bring it's carbon footprint down to a net 0, That includes logistics. When it comes to logistics of the sport you should really look into Extreme E (not to be confused with formula e).

F1 is the only truly global motorsport series. Every other series is in North America, Europe, Asia and such and don't leave that area. This is a big part of why they have such massive budgets.

We kept telling you F1 is big in the rest of the world - now you're beginning to understand how big! You really gotta watch a few races - yesterdays Fench GP was excellent - loads of drama. If you really wanted to push the boat out, going to see an F1 race would be a great experience to hang a vacation round.

PLEASE WATCH the live video from the race that was in real time because it doesn't have the over dramatic pauses and the medical team and marshals got to the scene a lot quicker than depicted in DTS. I watched this live back in 2020 and it was jaw dropping. Also Romain Grosjean is currently in Indycar for his second season and is performing very well. He is also currently sponsored by DHL in the #28 Andretti Autosport car. and his nickname is "The Phoenix"
