Formula 1 Flexjet deal
Formula 1 has added Flexjet as its official private aviation supplier in a multi-year global partnership that stretches across the championship calendar. The agreement gives the series another high-end commercial tie-in and puts Flexjet alongside a sport built on speed, logistics and precision. The partnership starts ahead of the Formula 1 Pirelli British Grand Prix at Silverstone, and it is aimed at supporting the travel needs that sit behind the trackside product. Formula 1 said the deal covers the global series, which means the relationship follows the championship from race to race and from market to market. Flexjet said the company will bring its private aviation operation into that environment with a fleet of more than 340 private jets, a scale that fits the demands of a world championship that moves personnel, equipment and guests around the globe. The move also gives Formula 1 a supplier that can speak to the sport’s broader image. Private aviation fits the premium side of the paddock, where hospitality, executive travel and event access all shape the experience around the racing itself. The partnership reflects that reality and places Flexjet in a role that links the commercial side of Formula 1 with the practical work of moving people across continents.
Flexjet aviation support
Flexjet will provide private aviation support for VIPs, executives, championship personnel and teams connected to Formula 1. That list puts the company in the flow of the sport’s daily operations, where travel plans can be as tight as a race weekend schedule. Formula 1 runs on a global calendar with constant movement between venues, and the deal gives the championship a dedicated aviation partner for the people who keep that schedule moving. The arrangement also extends beyond transport. Flexjet fractional owners will receive hospitality and behind-the-scenes access at selected Grands Prix through the Red Label program, which adds a customer-facing layer to the deal and connects private aviation with the race-day experience. That access gives Flexjet a place inside the Formula 1 hospitality model, where premium service and exclusivity sit at the center of the business. It also gives the series another way to present the sport to a high-end audience without losing the operational focus that defines Formula 1. The partnership blends logistics and access in a way that matches the structure of the championship. Teams and officials need reliable movement. Guests want an elevated experience. Flexjet now sits at the point where those needs meet.
Formula 1 sustainability
Formula 1 and Flexjet also plan to create a digital content series built around their shared focus on precision, innovation and luxury experiences. That gives the partnership a media layer that can extend beyond travel support and hospitality. Formula 1 has long sold more than racing. It sells a world of engineering, image and performance, and the content series fits that model by putting shared values at the center of the relationship. The partnership also includes Sustainable Aviation Fuel, and Formula 1 said flights tied to the deal will use Sustainable Aviation Fuel certificates as part of its effort to reduce business-travel emissions. The championship has been pushing lower-carbon travel across its operation, and this deal folds that goal into a private aviation package rather than treating sustainability as a separate message. Formula 1 said the partnership will include sustainability-focused initiatives intended to support lower-carbon travel, which places environmental work inside the commercial agreement itself. For Flexjet, the deal adds a major global sports platform to a business built around premium travel. For Formula 1, it adds a supplier that can support the people around the championship while also aligning with the series’ push for more responsible travel practices. The result is a partnership that links service, visibility and sustainability across the same global calendar.
