Sobatech Group has implemented a remote production (REMI) workflow for the Spanish F4 and Eurocup-3 racing series using Blackmagic Design hardware and bonded cellular transmission. The centralized setup at their Banyoles facility has reduced logistical requirements and production costs by up to 60% for European events.
The shift to a centralized REMI model demonstrates that high-tier motorsport coverage no longer requires massive on-site engineering footprints. By leveraging H.265 encoding and bonded cellular networks, Sobatech proves that sub-two-second latency is manageable for complex live sports even across international borders. This transition reflects a broader industry move toward software-defined and remote-access hardware to offset rising travel and logistics expenses. As broadcasters like DAZN increasingly demand localized feeds for different regions, the ability to generate unilateral commentary and graphics from a single remote hub becomes a competitive necessity. Watch for whether other mid-tier racing series adopt similar 5G network slicing setups to bypass expensive satellite or fiber backhaul requirements.
The implementation of IP-based facility workflows is becoming the standard for organizations looking to centralize production and reduce on-site personnel.
Sobatech Group has successfully implemented a remote production workflow for Spanish F4 and Eurocup-3 racing, centralizing operations in Banyoles. By utilizing Blackmagic Design hardware and bonded cellular transmission, the company reduced logistical footprints and cut production costs by 60%. This shift proves that high-tier motorsport coverage no longer requires massive on-site engineering.
Sobatech Group reduced its production costs by up to 60% for racing events held outside of Spain.
The workflow utilizes 14 URSA Broadcast G2 cameras, ATEM 4 M/E Constellation 4K switchers, HyperDeck Extreme 8K HDR recorders, and Blackmagic Cloud Store Max for remote editing.
The centralized control room is located at the Sobatech facility in Banyoles.
The centralized control room manages inputs and output feeds for broadcasters including DAZN and REDTV.
