Logistics operations are an inseparable part of every process that humans can conduct. No major process could proceed in a right way without logistics. In the case of every sport, and in the case of racing sports in particular, providing the right resources not only enables the race to take place but may be decisive about the potential results of each team as well. F1, which is called the "Queen" of motor sports, a main process in this case, has an essential need for logistics services. Considering this case, the purpose of this paper was to present the extent of logistics services within F1 as a good example of operation of logistics processes. The work is a review, basing mainly on various examples and practices from the 2018 season. The writing of this article was supported mainly by foreign internet sources, along with domestic literature and the author's own observations on the functionality of F1 races and the tasks of logistics processes.
