Camera 2 Reference Volume (RV-CAMERA-2)

In Simple Terms

RV-CAMERA-2 defines a specific 3D space on the car where a second camera must be mounted for broadcast purposes. This rectangular box-shaped volume is positioned toward the rear-left of the car and has been trimmed to exclude certain areas above and toward the inside of the vehicle.

• RV-CAMERA-2 is a defined cuboid (box-shaped) volume for camera placement on F1 cars
• The camera space extends from coordinates XF=-150 to XF=-450 horizontally and 325 to 550mm vertically
• Two planes trim the volume to exclude material above it and material positioned inboard (toward the center of the car)
• This regulation ensures consistent camera positioning for official broadcast footage
