Formula One racing is arguably the most data-driven sport that exists. Cars are equipped with approximately 150 sensors that generate around 2,000 data points per minute – including tire performance, weather, track temperatures, steering and braking patterns, lap times, throttle inputs, and more. That amounts to approximately four terabytes of data per car, per race. All this data is used to drive fast decision-making on the track where every second counts. On Dec. 18, 2019, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) published a notice in the Federal Register and requests public comments on the Beyond Compliance program. The FAST Act requires FMCSA to allow recognition, including credit or an improved Safety Measurement System (SMS) percentile, for motor carriers that: (1) Install advanced safety equipment; (2) Use enhanced driver fitness measures; (3) Adopt fleet safety management tools, technologies, and programs; or (4) Satisfy other standards determined appropriate by the Administrator.
