This is Formula 1 like you’ve never seen it before. The @dutchdronegods follow Max Verstappen’s brand new @redbullracing RB20 F1 car for a full lap of Silverstone’s Grand Prix Circuit. The world first uninterrupted FPV one shot was captured by a manually piloted custom built drone, designed specifically for the challenge of keeping up with the car at speeds of over 300kph.

It took Red Bull and the Dutch Drone Gods over a year to create a drone that can accelerate two times faster than an F1 car, reaching 300 km/h in just 4 seconds with a top speed of over 350 km/h. The development was accelerated by access to know-how and processes of Red Bull Advanced Technologies, a high-performance engineering arm of Oracle Red Bull Racing Formula 1 team and trialled behind the RB8 and RB19 cars driven by @liamlawson30 and David Coulthard.

  1. If you perfect this technology and make it sustain long flight times, you could record real F1 races with it and incorporate the drone shots into the livestreams. Imagine that

  2. That driving sequence was genuinely one of the most stunning automotive visuals I've ever witnessed. No unnecessary commentary, no exaggerated background music—just pure admiration for the car, the driver, and the craftsmanship behind it.

  3. does anyone else have the Dr. evil rocket launch scene from Austin Powers going through their head when looking at the drone?

  4. Nah Max, it wasn't too bad for the rain. It added a great cinematic feel to the lap. The speed and all the water coming from the back of the car looks great

  5. Do you think its possible to use a drone like this to file the SpaceX booster taking off or being caught? That would be soooo cooool!
