Custom solutions, delivered at motorsport speed 🏁

At bf1systems, we don’t just supply sensors, we engineer tailored solutions when an off‑the‑shelf part isn’t right for the application.

Here are two real examples of how our in‑house design capability helped teams get the data they needed fast:

🔸 WEC Cooling System Investigation

A team needed to understand intermittent behaviour in their cooling system. Their existing combined pressure and temperature sensor met the spec for race use, but didn’t have the bandwidth to capture the transient detail.

We quickly modified the sensor design, built a batch for a specific test, and the data helped pinpoint the source of the issue so it could be fixed.

🔸 Open‑wheel brake duct temperature

A team wanted fast‑response temperature measurement inside their brake ducts. They selected our NTC2F temperature sensor but needed a longer Peek tip so the sensing element sat centrally in the duct and away from other heat sources. We customised the design and delivered parts in under 6 weeks, start to finish.

From applying connectors to fully bespoke sensor solutions, we work side by side with customers to create exactly what’s needed, when it’s needed.

If you’ve got a measurement challenge, let’s solve it together. 📩 [email protected]

Knowing what your tyres are doing when fitted to the car is only half the battle. If tyres aren’t in their optimum condition before fitment, performance is already being lost.

At bf1systems, we recognise the challenge teams, series organisers and tyre manufacturers face in ensuring tyres are race‑ready before they go on the car and we offer a range of tools to suit different categories and budgets to make this possible.

From the hand-held QuickScan, through to our market leading Garage Monitoring System and the 1SYSTEM App, we have tools suitable for everyone from tyre technicians through to strategy engineers!

A huge congratulations to our Managing Director, James Welham on completing the London Marathon yesterday! 🏃‍♂️

An incredible milestone after months of dedication and hard work training, including multiple half marathons and 20- and 22-mile runs. James crossed the finish line in an impressive 04:31:26.

James ran in support of EACH (East Anglia’s Children’s Hospice), helping to raise an incredible £2,555 for a charity that provides vital care and support to children and families across Norfolk and the wider region.

We couldn’t be prouder of what James has achieved, from where his running journey began to completing the world’s biggest marathon.

Well done James, a fantastic personal achievement and a moment to be proud of! 🧡

The wait is over, the FIA WEC (World Endurance Championship) begins today with the Imola Prologue, signalling the start of another extraordinary season of endurance racing.

There is no better proving ground for performance and reliability than the World Endurance Championship.

With an unprecedented 14 manufacturer representation on the grid and a warm welcome to Genesis for the new season, WEC continues to define the cutting edge of global motorsport.

Two thirds of the grid rely on bf1systems 1SYSTEM TPMS for pressure and temperature data, underlining its position as the market leading solution for tyre performance and reliability. Supported by our additional trackside tools, including the Garage Monitoring System, teams have the insight, confidence and competitive advantage to compete at the front.

Beyond tyre monitoring, bf1systems is present throughout the field.

🔸Multiple GT manufacturers compete with steering wheels designed and manufactured in house by bf1systems

🔸Our RHL5 fifth generation Ride Height Laser, along with strain gauging and a wide range of chassis and powertrain sensors, continues to deliver trusted data in one of the most demanding environments in motorsport.

We are proud to support so much of the WEC grid and look forward to another season of fierce manufacturer competition and endurance.

We’re incredibly proud to be supporting our Managing Director, James Welham, as he prepares to run the London Marathon on Sunday 26 April. 🏃‍♂️

James’ running journey only began in 2025, in just over a year he’s pushed himself relentlessly. Completing 100 miles in January, tackling 20- and 22-mile training runs as well as running multiple half marathons, most recently finishing in a strong 1:56:12 at the Norwich Half, James’ commitment has been nothing short of outstanding.

This year, James is running in support of EACH (East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices) a charity close to home here in Norfolk that provides vital care and support to children and families across the region. Thanks to his hard work and the generosity of others, James has already raised over £1,000.

With just two weeks to go, every donation makes a difference. If you’d like to support James, please donate using the link 👉 https://2026tcslondonmarathon.enthuse.com/pf/james-welham

Good luck James, we’ll be cheering you on every step of the way! 🧡
