What is The F1 Summer Shutdown?

Each year, F1 factories fall silent for 14 consecutive days, for what is known as the ‘Summer Shutdown’ 💤

Toto, James and Rob explain everything you need to know about the shutdown: from what it is, to why it takes place and what is and isn't allowed! 👀

I love how Mercedes takes the responsibility of educating us on even the would-be minor events of the F1 calendar. Kudos to you

Toto "No emails for 14days"
Michael Masi "I'M 🥳"

James Allison teaching me a new word every time he speaks. Would love to hear him in person giving a speech sometime.

“If there were no shutdown, it would be an unwarranted act of self-harm”. What a choice of words haha.

You already know the first thing everyone says after the holiday is: "okay so i have been thinking..."

The schedule for the second half looks brutal. In many cases a race each week. I hope you all are able to truly get some rest and recharging.
