McLaren Racing CEO says his team pulls 1.5 terabytes of data and runs 50 million simulations every race weekend

“We have data analysis around every piece of our race car. We have 300 sensors on a race car. We pull down one and a half terabytes of data a weekend. And for those who don’t know what that means, that’s 10 million documents, that’s about 400 movies….and we will run 50 million simulations over a race weekend. We have to make split-second decisions, so we have to rely on the data.“
