  • Going behind-the-scenes of F1's TV Direction operations

    Katy has been to Biggin Hill, the hub of Formula 1's TV Direction, to get an access-all-areas tour at how the broadcast is created. From the impressive TV gallery, to the car onboards, team radio room and graphics, there is so much to discuss. A huge thank you to Lenovo for this opportunity. This is quite a different type of episode, and much longer and more detailed than our normal weekly chats about F1 news, but if you have enjoyed it any constructive feedback would be welcomed!00:00 - Introduction1:00 - When did I go to Biggin Hill?5:40 - Starting with servers 7:00 - Going into the TV gallery 11:15 - The roles of the TV Directors14:28 - Explaining the different cameras22:18 - Creating graphics 26:17 - What do you do when there's a crash?29:30 - The engineering side 34:18 - Looking at the data38:03 - F1's team radio room43:18 - What happens when things go wrong?42:12 - My thoughts on F1's TV DirectionPlease be sure to like and subscribe to Small Torque with Katy Fairman, and follow the podcast on socials.
