The FIA has announced a major partnership with Amazon Web Services to enhance its digital capabilities and shape future Formula 1 regulations. As the Official AI and Cloud Computing Partner, AWS will provide advanced tools to improve technical regulation development. The FIA will leverage AWS’s High Performance Computing for aerodynamic simulations, enabling virtual airflow tests without physical prototypes—cutting costs and accelerating development. This collaboration also expands the FIA’s digital licensing platform, initially trialed in Canada and Sri Lanka, to streamline event administration for national authorities and officials. The platform will now be rolled out globally. FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem emphasized the importance of technology in evolving the sport, from elite racing to grassroots motorsport. The partnership aims to simplify participation for drivers, officials, and volunteers while supporting the FIA’s goal to double global motorsport engagement. AWS, already a partner of F1 since 2018, uses its tools to process telemetry data for live broadcast analytics and strategy predictions.
This integration marks a key step in the FIA’s digital transformation, enhancing efficiency across all levels of motorsport.
