About Formula 1
Formula 1 represents motorsport’s pinnacle—where automotive engineering meets human skill at speeds exceeding 230mph. Founded in 1950, F1 has grown into a global phenomenon with 1.5 billion viewers worldwide. Each race weekend combines practice sessions, high-stakes qualifying, and Sunday’s main event where split-second decisions and tire strategy determine champions.
💰 The $2.5 Billion F1 Business
Formula 1 generates $2.5 billion annually and continues accelerating under Liberty Media’s ownership. TV viewership hit record highs thanks to Netflix’s Drive to Survive documentary series, which tripled American interest in the sport. Top teams operate on $400+ million budgets, investing in cutting-edge technology that often trickles down to road cars.
Driver earnings: Max Verstappen commands $55 million per year, while Lewis Hamilton earns $45 million. Unlike traditional sports, F1 drivers also earn massive income from personal sponsorships—top drivers can double their earnings through endorsement deals with luxury brands, watchmakers, and technology companies.
Team values: Ferrari (valued at $3.9 billion), Mercedes, and Red Bull Racing are worth billions. The budget cap introduced in 2021 ensures smaller teams can compete, creating the most competitive era in decades.
🌍 F1’s Global Reach
Traditional Europe: Monaco (the jewel), Monza (the temple of speed), Silverstone (home of British racing), Spa-Francorchamps (the most challenging). European races attract passionate fans who’ve followed F1 for generations.
North American Boom: Three races in 2026—Austin (Texas), Miami, and Las Vegas. Drive to Survive exploded American interest, with Las Vegas hosting a $500 million night race on the Strip. The US market now represents F1’s fastest growth.
Middle East & Asia: Abu Dhabi’s Yas Marina hosts the season finale under lights. Saudi Arabia’s Jeddah Corniche Circuit brings F1 to the Gulf. Singapore’s night race is a visual spectacle. Japan’s Suzuka remains a driver favorite.
Emerging markets: Vietnam, South Africa, and Rwanda are all candidates for future Grand Prix races as F1 expands its global footprint.
