• Formula 1 signs multi-year agreement with Flexjet as Official Private Aviation Supplier
• Deal secures the travel requirements of key executives and championship personnel
• Partnership reflects a shared focus on operational excellence, innovation, and efficiency
Formula 1® has today announced a new multi-year partnership with Flexjet, naming the global leader in private aviation as the sport’s Official Private Aviation Supplier.
The agreement, which launches just ahead of this weekend’s FORMULA 1 PIRELLI BRITISH GRAND PRIX 2026, brings together two brands that share a focus on operational excellence and innovation, and are both defined by precision, performance, and the delivery of world-class experiences.
As a truly global sport operating 24 races in 21 countries, Formula 1 requires the seamless movement of people. Through this collaboration Flexjet will support the travel requirements of key executives and championship personnel, providing efficient and flexible connectivity around the world. As a leader in its field, it operates a global fleet of more than 340 ultramodern private jets, including one of the industry’s most refined collections of large-cabin aircraft.
Flexjet will benefit from Formula 1’s global platform and growing international audience of more than 830 million fans worldwide, while also providing its special guests with access to a range of exclusive, behind-the-scenes experiences at select Grands Prix events. These experiences will form part of Flexjet’s Red Label® offering, which curates premium experiences both in the air and on the ground.
The two brands will also collaborate on a dedicated digital content series, showcasing the shared DNA between aviation and motorsport, from engineering precision to the pursuit of performance at the highest level.
The partnership also reinforces both organisations’ commitment to advancing responsible mobility and operational efficiencies. As part of Formula 1’s broader sustainability strategy, flights operated under the partnership will utilise Sustainable Aviation Fuel certificates (SAFc), contributing to ongoing efforts to reduce emissions associated with business travel while contributing towards its Net Zero by 2030 target.
Stefano Domenicali, President and CEO of Formula 1, said:
“Every day of the year, Formula 1 is on the move, connecting with our fans, promoters and stakeholders, and working together to deliver something truly incredible. Having strong partners by our side is central to our success as we continue to grow and create unforgettable moments for hundreds of millions of fans around the globe. Flexjet is a perfect fit for us as our new Official Supplier given the shared passion for precision, innovation and totally unique experiences.”
Kenn Ricci, Chairman of Flexjet, said:
“This is a natural alignment of two worlds in which both luxury aircraft and fast cars require absolute precision and flawless coordination to achieve success. As we look to the future alongside our partners at LVMH, cementing our longstanding ties with the world of motor racing allows us to deliver unparalleled, ultra-luxury experiences, both on the ground and in the air.”
