Marsh becomes Formula 1’s first official risk and insurance brokering partner in a multi-year deal, anchored by a new content series, The Risk Perspective, and trackside activations at selected events.
The series frames race previews through risk variables such as strategy, car set-up, and conditions, creating a sponsor presence that integrates with the sporting narrative rather than sitting alongside it.
Marsh becomes Formula 1’s first official risk and insurance brokering partner in a multi-year agreement.
Marsh president and CEO John Q Doyle positions the tie-up as more than branding. He argues risk advisory work sits behind almost every investment and often operates out of sight, enabling growth worldwide.
Beyond content, the partnership delivers prominent track branding and curated guest experiences, giving Marsh controlled B2B environments around grands prix to engage clients and prospects.
For Formula 1, Stefano Domenicali presents Marsh’s arrival as evidence the championship is attracting sectors that historically sat outside the sport’s commercial orbit.
“Risk advisory work is behind almost every investment,” says Marsh CEO John Q Doyle.
The move fits Liberty Media’s wider strategy to diversify partnerships and extend F1’s cultural reach without diluting the core product.
Doyle highlights shared pillars with F1: data-led decision-making, managing complex risk, and a relentless push for marginal gains. F1’s operational intensity offers a live platform to demonstrate Marsh’s expertise.
‘The Risk Perspective’ links race analysis to real-world risk management, a rare content-first activation in elite sport.
The agreement is Marsh’s first enterprise-wide sports partnership since its January 2026 brand consolidation, suggesting confidence that F1’s scale and audience profile match its objectives.
Marsh opted for series-level rights rather than a single-team route, citing a better fit with the F1 community and shared values, and broader relevance to its global client base.
While the content series targets fans, the partnership’s centre of gravity is B2B: executive access, client engagement, and thought leadership in a high-performance environment that mirrors boardroom decision-making.
The deal prioritizes B2B outcomes through track branding, hospitality, and executive networking worldwide.
For Formula 1, the tie-up reinforces how the championship can translate its technical identity into credible corporate stories without compromising competitive integrity.
Domenicali maintains F1 must stay true to its essence while finding new ways to communicate. Marsh’s program is a current example of that balance in action.
