Together, they offer fascinating insights into the fast-paced world of Formula 1 — and reveal how data-driven decision-making, artificial intelligence, and precise resource management can make all the difference when you’re competing for mere milliseconds. From navigating the FIA cost cap to smart planning of component production and managing 1.5 terabytes of sensor data each race weekend, this conversation highlights how technological innovation on the track and in manufacturing seamlessly comes together. Discover how the partnership between SAP and Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS is creating a new blueprint for digital efficiency and intelligent transformation — not only for motorsports, but also for OEMs, suppliers, and manufacturing companies around the world.
