Formula 1® Australian Grand Prix™
Delivering technology and connectivity for the Formula 1® Australian Grand Prix™
In 2025, PMY was engaged by the Australian Grand Prix Corporation to deliver two technology solutions to support and enable the operations and commercial teams at the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix™.
The major Australian event, which welcomed record crowds of more than 465,000 people in 2025, launched the Formula 1® racing season.
PMY proudly delivered private wireless 5G connectivity throughout the Grand Prix site, installing multiple radio units and antennas to provide a robust wireless backbone for connectivity, without reliance on extensive cabling and infrastructure.
Further, PMY delivered crowd intelligence solutions through Optic, using a combination of camera and LiDAR technologies to strategically track and measure crowd movement, behaviour and dwell time. This allowed the Australian Grand Prix Corporation to understand site utilisation at both a macro and micro level, with the data insights enabling real-time operational decisions to be made supporting the planning of events.
With a relationship spanning two years, PMY continues to play a pivotal role in delivering innovative technology solutions that keep one of Australia’s largest sporting events running at full speed.
