Specifically, Workday will deliver its content across F1 channels, including having trackside branding at Europe-based Grands Prix, the series has said.
The initial tie-up between F1 and Workday was announced in May last year, with the firm at that point becoming the regional finance and HR enterprise partner of F1 in the key UK and Germany markets.
F1 has also now selected the Workday Human Capital Management system to “supercharge its internal business processes and harness the full power of its talent.”
Brandon Snow, managing director of commercial at Formula 1, said: “It’s vital we are able to provide [our employees] with the premium service that Workday offer, whilst also showcasing what Workday can do to our engaged audience … Our extended and expanded partnership will continue to see us use our unique platform to promote our shared values.”

The next race of the 2022 F1 campaign is the inaugural Miami Grand Prix on May 8.
