Many of the world's top car manufacturers compete in F1. The cars are capable of speeds up to around 360 km/h (224 mph), are powered by a hybrid engine, turbocharged, and rev up to 15,000 RPM. A Formula One race is typically 305 km (190 mi) in length and lasts around 1.5 to two hours.
According to figures released by Formula One management, the 2020 season had a cumulative TV audience of 1.5 billion, compared to 1.9 billion in 2019; an average of about 90 million viewers per grand prix. Fans were unable to attend the events in-person due to restrictions relating to the COVID-19 pandemic until late in the 2021 season. The last time when the Australian Grand Prix was held in Adelaide, Formula 1 saw the most people ever in attendance, with an estimated 520,000 people over the course of the three-day race weekend.
