SEASON 11 BROADCAST TECHNOLOGY
Formula E Season 11 demonstrated how technology can transform the clarity, accessibility, sustainability and global reach of a top-tier motorsport. As Host Broadcast Partner, Aurora delivered an integrated production model combining remote galleries, AI-driven car tracking, augmented reality, enhanced onboard camera systems and drone cinematography.
A split-gallery workflow reduced the operational footprint by relocating host and press galleries to London while maintaining the track cut on-site. Ultra-low latency IP transmission over public internet enabled real-time links from circuits around the world.
AR overlays explained complex elements like Attack Mode and energy management, while AI visual-recognition tracked cars live to support commentary and storytelling. Drone coverage replaced helicopters, providing dynamic visuals with lower environmental impact.
This technology directly contributed to Formula E achieving record-breaking audience growth, with Season 11 delivering its highest-ever global reach and the largest single-race and race-weekend audiences in championship history.
