Sky Italia’s new studio, dedicated to providing coverage of this season’s Formula One Championship has been installed with the latest robotic equipment from Vinten Radamec.
The equipment has been used as part of the channel’s live coverage and commentary from the first five Formula One races. The studio will show all 19 races, including the qualifying and practice sessions, in the 2013 F1 World Championship calendar. The studio has been equipped with two of Vinten Radamec’s recently launched FH-35VR next generation heads, which incorporate the company’s ICE (Intelligent Control Engineering) platform. Studio 8 has also been installed with one of Vinten Radamec’s new compact control solutions, the CP4.

This is the latest in a range of installations for the broadcaster and we are delighted that some of our next generation equipment is being used for Sky Italia’s captivating coverage of the F1 season.”
