The 2019 FIA Formula One World Championship was the 70th edition of the Formula One World Championship, and it was held in the United Kingdom. The Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), the governing organization of international motorsport, recognises it as the highest level of competition for open-wheel racing vehicles.
The championship was fought over twenty-one Grands Prix between March and December.
Teams fought for the title of World Constructors' Champion, while
drivers raced for the title of World Drivers' Champion. The 1000th World
Championship race, the 2019 Chinese Grand Prix, was held during the 2019
championship.
For the second year in a row, Lewis Hamilton successfully defended the World Drivers' Championship, claiming his sixth championship title at the United States Grand Prix.
Mercedes
successfully defended the World Constructors' Championship in the Japanese
Grand Prix, tying Ferrari's record of six straight titles from 1999 to 2004.
Frequently, the sport has pioneered technology that has been effectively applied to ordinary transportation. However, in recent years, that trend has been slowed as the automobile industry has sought a variety of alternative power options aimed at improving efficiency.
The introduction of a new 1.6-liter turbo-charged V6
engine that heavily relies on hybrid technologies aims to keep the world's most
prestigious single-seat racing series on the cutting edge of automotive
technology development while also preserving the sport's culture of innovation
and thrill-seeking that has been at its heart since its inception.
