Formula 1 has announced professional services firm PwC as its new official consulting partner.
The multi-year agreement will see PwC provide strategic consulting to Formula 1 across key areas of its global business, aiming to enhance performance and support the sport’s drive for operational excellence.
In return, PwC will receive benefits including trackside signage at select races and opportunities to host clients and stakeholders at Grands Prix throughout the season.
The partnership connects two organisations focused on delivering high performance in complex environments.
