Through its partnership with BWT Alpine Formula One Team, the alliance will facilitate the integration of IndraMind's sovereign artificial intelligence platform into one of the sporting world's most demanding technological environments
Indra Group has chosen the Mobile World Congress (MWC) as the stage to present to the general public the potential of its sovereign artificial intelligence platform, IndraMind, through one of the greatest exponents of motor racing: a BWT Alpine Formula One Team car, on display at the company’s stand during the event.
Formula 1 is the most innovative, demanding and competitive championship in the sporting world, and one of the largest technology laboratories in existence. The recent agreement signed by the corporation with BWT Alpine Formula One Team, under which it becomes its technology partner, represents a unique opportunity to demonstrate how artificial intelligence can make the difference in environments of maximum operational complexity, under intense competitive pressure and where real‑time decision‑making is critical.
This collaboration envisages Indra Group, through its sovereign AI offering IndraMind, to access a top‑tier technological laboratory from which to draw insights into innovation, optimisation and strategic agility, while applying its technology in an environment where efficiency, anticipation and operational excellence are essential.
“Formula 1 represents the highest level of technological and strategic demand. The opportunity to apply IndraMind in this environment is an extraordinary prospect to demonstrate how sovereign artificial intelligence delivers real value when every decision counts and every millisecond is decisive,” said Yon Munilla, Commercial Director of IndraMind.
AI by design across all capabilities
IndraMind is a platform conceived with AI by design across all its capabilities, from the ingestion and correlation of large volumes of data to decision‑making, process automation and the generation of actionable intelligence. Its key differentiator lies in its ability to consolidate information from multiple sources, provide a unified view and deliver real‑time situational awareness.
In a highly demanding environment such as Formula 1, success can no longer depend solely on the car and the driver’s talent. Intelligent management of data, people and resources have also become decisive factors, gaining even greater relevance in 2026 with the entry into force of the new technical and sporting regulations promoted by the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA).
An increasingly complex and regulated competitive and sporting environment
The objective of the regulatory changes introduced by the FIA is to make Formula 1 a more competitive, sustainable, and safer championship. In the season that begins this weekend, the cars are lighter and more compact, incorporate active aerodynamics with movable wings, and the balance between thermal and electric power changes significantly. In addition, the energy that can be stored and used per lap is strictly regulated, forcing teams to optimise its management not only per lap, but also according to on‑track battles and key moments during the race.
The partnership with BWT Alpine Formula One Team allows IndraMind to co‑create real use cases that will support entry into new markets such as motorsport or aeronautics, as well as to demonstrate technological capabilities in mission‑critical contexts, underpinned by sovereignty and cyber resilience.
