DHL to continue providing F1 logistics
DHL has been responsible for team logistics away from Europe since 2004. This partnership has just been extended.
Even before the end of the race or the champagne shower, some are already busy behind the scenes: they are the DHL teams, whose task is to ensure that all the equipment is dismantled as quickly as possible, so that there is no delay and that the next stage of the F1 caravan arrives on time at the next stage, which can be located several thousand kilometers away.
A series of races are thus highlighted on all calendars, namely the devilish sequence Sochi-Singapore-Suzuka, which will take place over three consecutive weekends! Stefano Domenicali, the new CEO of F1, stated: « DHL is our oldest global partner and we are delighted to sign a long-term extension with them, which demonstrates the strength of our collaboration. For 16 years, we have succeeded together, on and off the track. We are proud to work with the global leader in logistics for what will be the longest season in F1 history. »
The logistician has his own trophies in his name to reward the best lap in the race as well as the fastest pit stop. In 2020, the podium was dominated by Red Bull, ahead of Williams, who found a rare source of satisfaction there, and Mercedes.
