Read up on Formula 1 logistics as stories and interviews present themselves throughout the year, it's quite incredible.
Gibson Freight is the company that has the contract for V8 Supercars, F1, MotoGP & World Superbikes.
They load the containers with the equipment at the track & take care of the equipment until the breakdown of the containers at the arriving airport.
