LET FANS COME TO THE GAME PREPARED
Fans can check the latest weather conditions on the field at the last minute, even from the parking lot on their smart phone, and decide whether to leave the jacket in the car, or pack extra sunscreen.
While working as a photojournalist at the FIA World Endurance Championship race at the '6 Hours of Fuji,' I looked up to see one of Toyota's weather stations used to monitor the ever-changing conditions at the track (in this case just above the start-finish straight). Having accurate weather data is critical for teams in making decisions such as what tires (type and compound) to prepare at the next pit stop, what the next driver has to look forward to, and so on. Great to see the reliance on Davis products for this!
