Flexjet and Formula 1 have entered into a multi-year partnership.

Flexjet becomes the Official Private Aviation Supplier of Formula 1.

The partnership launches ahead of this weekend’s Formula 1 Pirelli British Grand Prix 2026 at Silverstone.

The partnership will continue throughout the calendar.

Belgium and Hungary are next up.

Flexjet will provide fleet access for VIPs, executives, and teams.

All flights will be operated using sustainable aviation fuel.

Flexjet Chairman Kenn Ricci said, “This is a natural alignment of two worlds in which both luxury aircraft and fast cars require absolute precision and flawless coordination to achieve success.”

He added, “As we look to the future alongside our partners at LVMH, cementing our longstanding ties with the world of motor racing allows us to deliver unparalleled, ultra-luxury experiences, both on the ground and in the air.”

L Catterton, a private equity firm affiliated with LVMH, invested $800 million in Flexjet last year.

LVMH brands range from fashion houses Louis Vuitton and Dior to Belmond trains and hotels, Cheval Blanc hotels, and Dom Pérignon champagne.

Per the announcement:

‘Through the global partnership, Flexjet will leverage Formula 1’s prodigious worldwide reach and elite audience appeal. Flexjet’s fractional aircraft Owners will also enjoy exceptional hospitality and behind-the-scenes experiences at selected global Grand Prix race events – as part of the Flexjet Red Label program providing curated experiences inside and outside of the cabin. Flexjet and Formula 1’ will furthermore collaborate on a digital content series which celebrates their powerful synergies and shared vision.’

Formula 1 CEO Stefano Domenicali said” “As a global championship we are constantly on the move, engaging with our fans, partners, promoters, and stakeholders all around the world, 365 days a year, adding, “Having partners that support us on our mission to deliver the best sport, and an unforgettable show is vital to our ongoing success, so I am delighted to welcome Flexjet as a new Official Supplier.”

Flexjet LXi cabin interiors feature collaborations with Bentley and Riva, with the possibility of a Formula 1-inspired interior.

Last month, Flexjet resigned as a sponsor of the Laver Cup.

It also has multi-year sponsorships of Royal Ascot and Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz.
