» F1-RE CenterFormula 1 Reliability and Effectiveness Centre, opened by Nigel Mansell Grand Fellow of the MIRCE Akademy on 6th December 2000 , to facilitate the science-based system approach to F1 Grand Prix Racing process with the following objectives: 1: To understand the "mechanics" of F1 Reliability & Effectiveness To achieve this objective the Centre continuously collects and analyses, available after-race data, by applying scientific and statistical methods, developed at the MIRCE-Mecahanics Laboratory, to understand the "mechanics" of failure events and processes (clikck here to view the list) 2: To predict the F1 Race Reliability & Effectiveness To achieve this objective the Centre applies Computational Mirce Mechanics Method, CMM, developed at the MIRCE Akademy, that establishes the multi-dimensional, non-linear, time-dependent relationships between: Driver, Rolling-Chases, Engine, Tyres, Circuit, Regulations, Environment and Team to predict the Race Reliability and Effectiveness under given design, tactical and environmental alternatives. 3: To Annually recognise the most Reliable F1 Team and Driver The F1-RE Centre annually presents two F1 Reliability Awards entitled: The F1 Driver Reliability Champion
F1 Reliability Award for Drivers The F1-RE Centre defines the F1 Driver’s Reliability as: “The ability of the Driver to successfully complete all F1 Grand Prix races in the FIA organised Formula One World Championship season.” The Drivers’ title of the F1 Driver Reliability Champion will be awarded to the Driver(s) who is placed at the top of the F1 Reliability Table for Drivers, compiled by the F1-RE Centre, at the end of the each season. Regulations: A Driver will be awarded one point for every race finished. For every unfinished race, caused by the Team’s error, the driver will be awarded the proportion of the point corresponding to the portion of the race completed. All races count.

The F1-RE Centre defines the F1 Team’s Reliability as: “The ability of the Team to successfully complete all F1Grand Prix races in the FIA organised Formula One World Championship season.” The Teams’ title of the F1 Team Reliability Champion will be awarded to the Team(s) that is placed at the top of the F1 Reliability Table for Teams, produced by the F1-RE Centre, at the end of the each season. Regulations: A Team will be awarded one point for every race finished. For every unfinished race, caused by the Drivers’ error, the team will be awarded the proportion of the point corresponding to the portion of the race completed. All races for both drivers count.

The Centre also has created a large dynamic educational display of F1 Grand Prix Racing System from 1950 till today. It is continuously available to the general public courtesy of the adjacent Nigel Mansell’s World of Racing, at the Woodbury Park Hotel, Woodbury, Exeter, United Kingdom.
