Known for their innovation and pursuit of excellence, McLaren Racing has a rich history in motorsport, consistently striving to achieve top performance on the track. The team is composed of skilled drivers, including Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, who are dedicated to pushing the limits of speed and precision. McLaren Racing is committed to leveraging cutting-edge technology, data analysis, and AI to gain a competitive edge in the sport. With a focus on optimizing race strategies, car setups, and tire management, McLaren Racing aims to secure podium finishes and compete for the Constructors’ Championship. The team operates on a global scale, participating in races across various countries and continents, and is recognized for their expertise in data-driven decision-making and innovation in the automotive industry.
挑战
In the highly competitive world of Formula 1 racing, McLaren Racing faces the challenge of optimizing their race performance to secure a spot on the podium and potentially win the Constructors’ Championship. The team must leverage data and AI technologies to analyze vast amounts of information, including past race data, track conditions, weather forecasts, and tire strategies. The challenge lies in simplifying this data to focus on the most critical aspects, allowing the team to make informed decisions during practice, qualifying, and the race itself. Additionally, McLaren Racing must run extensive simulations to predict effective race strategies and car setups, especially for tracks they have never raced on before. The team also needs to develop optimal tire strategies, choosing the right compounds and quantities before the race weekend begins. Furthermore, McLaren Racing must maintain their competitive edge by continuously improving their car's performance and adapting to changing track conditions, such as the bumpy circuit of the Austin Grand Prix. The team must also overcome the challenge of limited wind tunnel time due to their high standings, making it crucial to maximize the use of data during pre-season testing to develop next year's car.
解决方案
McLaren Racing employs a comprehensive data-driven approach to optimize their race performance and gain a competitive edge in Formula 1. The team utilizes cloud computing and AI technologies to analyze vast amounts of data, including past race data, track conditions, weather forecasts, and tire strategies. This data is processed through advanced simulation software, allowing McLaren Racing to run close to 300 million race simulations before each race. These simulations help predict effective race strategies, car setups, and tire management, enabling the team to make informed decisions during practice, qualifying, and the race itself. The team also leverages predictive analytics and machine learning to continuously update their predictions based on real-time data, such as weather conditions, tire performance, and driver feedback. This iterative process allows McLaren Racing to adapt their strategies and optimize their car's performance throughout the race weekend. Additionally, McLaren Racing focuses on developing upgrades for their cars, using data from wind tunnel tests and simulation tools to ensure a strong correlation between the virtual and real-world performance. This data-driven approach has been instrumental in McLaren Racing's success, helping them achieve record-breaking pit stops and maintain a competitive edge in the Constructors’ Championship.

Case Study
Integral Plant Maintenance
Mercedes-Benz and his partner GAZ chose Siemens to be its maintenance partner at a new engine plant in Yaroslavl, Russia. The new plant offers a capacity to manufacture diesel engines for the Russian market, for locally produced Sprinter Classic. In addition to engines for the local market, the Yaroslavl plant will also produce spare parts. Mercedes-Benz Russia and his partner needed a service partner in order to ensure the operation of these lines in a maintenance partnership arrangement. The challenges included coordinating the entire maintenance management operation, in particular inspections, corrective and predictive maintenance activities, and the optimizing spare parts management. Siemens developed a customized maintenance solution that includes all electronic and mechanical maintenance activities (Integral Plant Maintenance).
Case Study
Monitoring of Pressure Pumps in Automotive Industry
A large German/American producer of auto parts uses high-pressure pumps to deburr machined parts as a part of its production and quality check process. They decided to monitor these pumps to make sure they work properly and that they can see any indications leading to a potential failure before it affects their process.
