Formula One Racing

racing · cars · competition · worldwide

The ultimate motorsport. Formula One is considered the highest level of racing in the entire world. Only the best drivers in the world get to compete in F1.

Super fast single-seaters. F1 cars are open-wheel racers, which means they have no protective covering around the wheels. These cars are built to follow strict rules called the formula.

Racing around the globe. Each F1 season includes races called Grands Prix that happen in different countries and continents. Some races use special tracks built just for racing, while others use city streets closed off for the event.

Rules for everyone. The word 'formula' refers to the set of rules that every single car must follow. All teams have to build their cars the same way, which keeps the racing fair and exciting.

Started in 1950. The first official F1 World Championship raced way back in 1950, making it one of the oldest motorsports still running today.
