The significance of the partnership with the UAE company is to enable Mercedes to gain an advantage over its rivals by analysing critical insights and improving even minor adjustments to enhance its performance.
G42 and the Mercedes-AMG F1 Team will explore ways to deploy cutting-edge artificial intelligence software and solutions to deliver marginal and critical insights into the team’s operations.
Peng Xiao, Group CEO at G42, said: ‘Modern motorsport and technology go hand-in-hand, especially considering the sheer magnitude of critical data generated during every race weekend. By combining exceptional human talent with advanced AI, big data analytics and computing power, we can optimise a wide range of processes on and off the track, enabling decision dominance and expanding the boundaries of what’s currently possible.
