Formula 1 CEO Chase Carey believes Formula 1 will not be adversely affected by any issues involving Brexit.
Several teams have voiced their Brexit concerns, in particular regarding a no-deal outcome, due to the large number of staff they have and the parts they important from the continent.
However, Carey believes an organisation like Formula 1 with its global outlook and unique revenue streams will not fall foul of Brexit.
“The economic issues, I do think we feel pretty immune to them,” Carey said in a phone call with Wall Street analysts and investors.
“Brexit, we’ve got some logistical issues, which are more sort of if you end up with a no-deal Brexit how do you get in and out of Britain with various equipment?
“But it’s not a financial issue, it’s more logistic, so we’re contingency planning for things like that.
“I think while certainly being European-based, we’re a global business, and we’re unique.
