Two Global Names, One Standard of Precision
A multi-year, LVMH-backed alliance puts one of the world’s largest large-cabin private fleets behind the Formula 1 calendar.
Formula 1 has named Flexjet its Official Private Aviation Supplier in a multi-year global partnership announced on 1 July 2026, ahead of this weekend’s British Grand Prix at Silverstone. It pairs the pinnacle of motor racing with a private aviation operator that flies more than 340 aircraft, including one of the largest collections of large-cabin jets in the world. For a Gulf audience that already lives close to both worlds, the timing is worth reading closely.
The deal at a glance

- Term: Multi-year, global

Two Precision Cultures, One Handshake
The logic is unforced. A Grand Prix weekend and a large-cabin flight are exercises in the same discipline, coordination measured in seconds, with nothing left to chance.
Flexjet’s chairman Kenn Ricci called it “a natural alignment of two worlds in which both luxury aircraft and fast cars require absolute precision and flawless coordination to achieve success,” pointing to the company’s future alongside LVMH. Stefano Domenicali, Formula 1’s president and CEO, welcomed Flexjet as a partner that shares “a deep passion and commitment to precision and innovation.”
Across the season, Flexjet will move VIPs, executives and teams on flights run with Sustainable Aviation Fuel, while its fractional Owners gain curated hospitality inside and outside the paddock through the Red Label programme.
Why the Gulf Should Read This Closely
This is not a European story with a Gulf footnote. The 2026 season is scheduled to reach its climax in the region, with the Qatar round at Lusail followed by the season finale at Yas Marina in Abu Dhabi, and the Gulf remains one of private aviation’s most active markets anywhere.
A partnership that formalises how the sport’s most valuable guests move between race weekends sits squarely inside how this region already travels: privately, precisely, and with the experience on the ground treated as seriously as the time in the air.

Precision Is the Real Luxury
Strip away the jets and the grid, and both names are selling the same thing: the quiet disappearance of friction. The highest tier is never about more. It is the sense that nothing was left to chance, and nothing announced itself.
For Boujeez, that is the standard worth borrowing, whether you are running a race team, an airline, or a single well-considered weekend.
