Red Bull Racing is increasingly turning to artificial intelligence to help make real-time decisions during Formula 1 races, including for reigning title contender Max Verstappen, according to CNBC.
The team said AI tools are being used to process race data quickly and support strategic calls that must be made within seconds, such as pit-stop timing and tyre strategy.
Despite the growing role of AI, Red Bull emphasised that human judgment remains essential to final decision-making, with engineers and strategists still responsible for interpreting the technology's recommendations.
The use of AI in Formula 1 reflects a broader trend across the sport, as teams look for any technological edge in an increasingly competitive and data-driven championship.
