Formula E: A Game of Data

Learn more about the value of data in Formula E though our partnership with Hewlett Packard Enterprise…

Formula E is a numbers game – it’s about speed, efficiency, and understanding and as such, having the right technical support week in, week out can make all the difference.

Here at ROKiT Venturi Racing, we have just that and, in a time where data has become one of the most valuable resources in business, HPE has our back.

By gaining control of our data, and with additional insight, every decision we make – both on the track and off it – is informed, helping us to advance our performance:

“HPE is supporting ROKiT Venturi Racing and lots of other customers with new ways of harnessing data by leveraging artificial intelligence techniques such as machine learning to drive better insight into pre, post and race day events,” explains HPE Strategic Advisor, Max Walker. 

“HPE has the best compute platforms [Apollo/Edgeline] that have delivered innovative cognitive and computer vision approaches bespoke to ROKiT Venturi Racing.”

Providing expertise that supports both trackside and factory-based team members through HPE Pointnext Services – and industry-leading compute, storage and network platforms – our data is processed from edge to cloud.

Efficiency lies as the core benefit from this and with it, we can make informed and accurate real-time decisions – an immediate advantage in the ever-evolving and rapidly changing Formula E landscape.

“In motorsport, time is currency and ROKiT Venturi Racing, in partnership with HPE, has demonstrated that having the right people and support has provided the team with faster race setup, improved resiliency, and better connectivity through the use of HPE technology, allowing the team to completely focus on the car performance on and off track,” continues Walker.

“HPE Pointnext Services is helping the team by curating new ways of working, covering people, process and technology associated with creating value from the data produced. 

“Now data is being used as an asset to make decisions and inform the way the team operates.”

With the help of HPE, the benefits have been boundless and as we gear up for the return of Season 6, our Technical Partner will continue to give us the edge both at the track and at home in Monaco.
