"In Formula 1, it all comes down to one thing: being the best and fastest on the track. That involves more than just engine parts, new floors for Formula 1 cars, and other technical marvels. The underlying IT also plays an important role. ServiceNow recently invited us to visit the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team headquarters in Silverstone. We wanted to find out more about this."
"When you walk through the Aston Martin Aramco factory and adjacent buildings, it's all about high-tech and its development. IT doesn't seem to play an important role. And to a certain extent, it doesn't. No one can seriously claim that choosing the best piece of software will result in a Formula 1 car that spontaneously wins races. Nevertheless, a significant change has taken place at Aston Martin Aramco."
"During a tour of the Aston Martin Aramco factory, we were given a good overview of the complete process of designing a Formula 1 car. Among other things, we heard how special some of the materials used in a Formula 1 car are. But we also felt how strong extremely light materials can be. Above all, we also saw how many people work every day to provide the drivers on the track with the best materials."
A tour of the Aston Martin Aramco factory provided an overview of the complete process of designing a Formula 1 car. Special materials and extremely light but strong components are used. Many people work daily to supply drivers with optimal materials. A countdown clock to the next Grand Prix hangs in the central hall. The next season will introduce hybrid engines combining combustion and electric motors. High-tech development is visible throughout the complex. IT had a limited visible role, but a partnership with ServiceNow in 2023 transformed IT operations, introducing processes and toolsets for a 15-person team.
