Infosys and Formula E Launch AI-Powered Race Centre Infosys and the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship unveiled an AI-powered Race Centre on March 20, 2026, designed to enhance fan engagement through real-time data and interactive features. The platform, built on Infosys Topaz, processes over 1.5 million data points per race to provide live commentary, predictions, and immersive content for global audiences. This initiative marks a significant step in integrating technology to deepen fan interaction with motorsport, as competition for digitally native audiences intensifies across global sports. The Race Centre, Infosys’s second year as Formula E’s Official Digital Innovation Partner, consolidates multiple functions into a unified platform. These include AI-generated race commentary, podium predictions, pit stop monitoring, driver tracking, weather updates, and race control feeds. The system leverages a generative AI engine to produce context-aware, real-time narration during events. An agentic AI layer manages data orchestration, routing over 1.5 million data points into the Race Centre dashboard, which visualizes live driver positions and car movements through a 2D track map. Interactive features allow fans to submit podium predictions during practice and qualifying sessions, vote for the “PIF Driver of the Race,” and track mandatory pit stops using the PIT BOOST tool. This tool monitors how each stop affects driver positions and race momentum. A selected driver event tracker lets fans follow key moments, such as overtakes and ATTACK MODE deployments, for any driver during the race. Formula E CEO Jeff Dodds emphasized the platform’s role in advancing the series’ vision for sustainable motorsport.#infosys #abb_fia_formula_e_world_championship #jeff_dodds #sumit_virmani #formula_e
