  • 1 Mega Event Management of Formula One Grand Prix
    MEGA EVENT MANAGEMENT OF FORMULA ONE GRAND PRIX: AN ANALYSIS OF LITERATURE ABSTRACT Purpose – A comprehensive literature review of mega event management of dynamic sporting events is presented. The purpose is to learn from these mega events to prescribe mitigation strategies for improving cost performance whilst simultaneously minimising public disruption on formula one grand prix events. Knowledge accrued of challenges posed is theoretically applied to circuit construction and reestablishment processes involved in orchestrating a ‘street circuit’ grand prix event. Design/methodology/approach – An inductive research methodological approach was adopted using an interpretivist epistemological design. A mixed methods analysis of pertinent extant literature of mega events afforded greater synthesis of the research problem domain and generated more valid and reliable findings. The software VOS Viewer was utilised to conduct a qualitative bibliographic analysis of pertinent extant literature. Findings – Three thematic groups of past research endeavour emerged from the analysis and were assigned appropriate nomenclature, namely: i) customer experience; ii) geographical location; and iii) research methods and approaches adopted. Analysis of these clusters revealed common factors that impact upon construction works during mega sporting events including: inclement weather conditions; miscommunication between project stakeholders; and economic impact upon the local community. Factors for mitigating these risks were also proposed including: traffic management plans; shift working; and wider public consultation. Originality/value – This unique study provides invaluable insight into construction works commissioned and implemented at a mega ‘motor sports’ public event. Although the research context was narrowly defined, findings presented are equally applicable to contractors, organisers and public authorities orchestrating other types of public event.

  • Esteban Ocon, Started P9, Finished P9 “It Was a Challenging Race Today in Hard Conditions
    Esteban and Fernando score first points of the season after eventful Emilia Romagna Grand Prix Alpine F1 Team scored its first championship points of the 2021 FIA Formula 1 World Championship after a challenging race, which led to Esteban Ocon finishing ninth and Fernando Alonso tenth in an incident-filled Emilia Romagna Grand Prix. Teams were faced with a difficult decision before the start of the race after a sudden downpour of rain an hour before lights out left some parts of the circuit extremely wet. Esteban opted for the full Wet tyres with Fernando on the Intermediates. On the laps to the grid, Fernando ran wide out of Turn 7, clipping the wall, meaning he had to change front wing. In slippery conditions, both drivers dropped outside of the top ten with Esteban switching to the Intermediates on lap two under the Safety Car. Things began to stabilise and, as the track started to dry, dry tyres looked the best option; Esteban fitting Mediums on lap 27 and Fernando following suit a lap later. Esteban switched to the Softs on lap 31, before a red flag brought the race to a stop following a collision between Valtteri Bottas and George Russell on the entry to turn two. The race resumed with Fernando twelfth and Esteban thirteenth, the Frenchman switching to Mediums during the red flag stoppage, for the sprint to the end. Both drivers immediately gained a few places and duelled for the final points-scoring position. Esteban was heaping the pressure on Kimi Räikkönen for ninth but could not make the breakthrough on the experienced Finn.

  • Press Release
    Press Release SEPTEMBER 16, 2018 Formula 1 : Double points in Singapore Renault Sport Formula One Team recorded its sixth double­points finish of the season after Carlos Sainz’s eighth place and Nico Hülkenberg’s tenth place finish in the Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix at the Marina Bay Street Circuit. Both drivers made clean starts with Carlos passing Nico into turn one then holding that position in the early running. Carlos – on his 75th Grand Prix start ­ enjoyed a quiet race from there, running a long first stint on the Ultrasoft tyre, before comfortably finishing in eighth for the second time in as many races. After starting on the Hypersoft tyre, Nico – on his 150th start ­ pitted early and ran long on the Ultrasofts, driving a smart and calculated race to the flag for his first points finish since the German Grand Prix. Five points means the team extend their lead in fourth place in the Constructors’ Championship to 15 points over fifth place. Nico started from P10 on used Pirelli Hypersoft (pink) tyres, pitting on lap 15 for a new set of Ultrasoft (purple) tyres. Carlos started from P12 on new Ultrasoft tyres, pitting on lap 37 for a new set of Soft (yellow) tyres. Nico Hülkenberg, #27, R.S.18­04: Started P10, finished P10. “I’m not quite happy with the result, as I know it could have been better. I lost two positions at the start and from there we were on the back foot, which was costly. We pitted early, going for an aggressive undercut and that initially played out well, but we were caught up in traffic after that.
