Formula 1 has announced that FanVision will return to the sport for the first time in five years, with the launch of F1 Vision at the Spanish Grand Prix this weekend.
FanVision Entertainment provides spectators with a live broadcast, access to replays and highlights plus direct audio feeds, allowing fans at the circuit to access driver and team radio communications and commentary through a "state-of-the-art handheld device".
F1 Vision also taps directly into the Formula 1 timing system, providing fans with real-time race data and statistics, providing a more immersive experience.
Its content is delivered via FanVision Entertainment’s dedicated digital transmitters, meaning the devices aren’t dependent upon venue WiFi. This technology ensures a consistently high-quality interaction with the F1 Vision device from any grandstand location at the Grand Prix.
"FanVision’s return to Formula 1 will absolutely enhance the at-event engagement level for fans of our sport," commented F1’s digital new business manager Albert Goma.
"Through the partnership with FanVision, Formula 1 fans will experience real-time technologies like in-car cameras and unrestricted team communications from their Grand Prix vantage points."
