MANILA: Lenovo is now the official partner of Formula 1 for the motorsport's 2022 season. The multi-year deal will see Lenovo’s cutting-edge technology used across Formula 1’s operations, according to a release. 

In the partnership, Lenovo's technology will be used in Formula 1's organization, base, and races. The tech firm's computing and server solutions, and on-site data and broadcasting support will be used by F1 in its operations and races. 

The partnership aims to "leverage Lenovo’s extensive selection of premium hardware... next-generation technology such as augmented and virtual reality, as F1 continues to connect fans with the sport in new and more engaging ways," the release added.
