Inside F1 Garage & Gordon Ramsay: A Culinary and Racing Experience Like No Other

Formula 1 has long been synonymous with speed, sophistication, and spectacle. In 2025, the sport is raising the bar even higher by partnering with world-renowned Michelin-starred chef Gordon Ramsay to transform its premium hospitality suite — the F1 Garage — into a culinary destination that mirrors the adrenaline and elegance of F1 itself.

The F1 Garage, nestled within the F1 paddock and pit lane, already offers fans unparalleled access to the heart of the racing action. With Ramsay at the helm of its culinary vision, guests will now be treated to a bespoke gourmet journey inspired by the diverse cultures and cuisines of each Grand Prix location. From locally sourced ingredients to hand-crafted dishes and signature cocktails by expert mixologists, the F1 Garage is poised to become the ultimate fusion of flavor and Formula 1.

This exciting venture builds on the overwhelming success of “Ramsay’s Garage” at the 2024 Las Vegas Grand Prix, where guests enjoyed dynamic live cooking stations, a variety of global flavors, and an exclusive pop-up of Ramsay’s acclaimed Lucky Cat restaurant. The upgraded F1 Garage will make its 2025 debut at the Miami Grand Prix from May 2–4, before appearing at other select races throughout the season.

Stefano Domenicali, President and CEO of Formula 1, shared his excitement about the collaboration, calling it a step toward delivering unmatched hospitality that resonates with the passion and precision of the sport. Ramsay echoed this enthusiasm, drawing a parallel between the intensity of F1 and the rhythm of high-performance kitchens — both requiring focus, talent, and a taste for excellence.

A Legacy of Luxury: The Formula 1 Paddock Club in Monaco

Few places embody the glamour of Formula 1 like Monaco, and at the heart of this storied Grand Prix lies the Formula 1 Paddock Club — the ultimate VIP experience. Created in 1984 by Paddy McNally, the Paddock Club was envisioned as a luxurious hospitality suite for F1 sponsors and elite guests, offering an elevated viewing experience combined with exceptional service.

In Monaco, the Paddock Club occupies a unique setting. Unlike traditional race tracks, where hospitality suites are perched directly above the team garages, the tight cityscape of Monte Carlo calls for creative placement — often granting guests sweeping views of the harbor, the starting grid, or iconic turns like the Fairmont Hairpin.

Over the decades, the Paddock Club has become a benchmark of excellence. Gourmet meals, Champagne receptions, pit lane walks, track tours, and exclusive driver appearances are all part of the experience. It’s where racing meets Riviera refinement — and with the recent extension of the Monaco Grand Prix through 2031, this tradition will continue to captivate audiences for years to come.

Whether you’re tasting a dish created by Gordon Ramsay in Miami or toasting under the Monte Carlo sun, Formula 1 is proving that the thrill of racing doesn’t end at the track — it extends to every luxurious detail that surrounds it.

As part of this new culinary chapter, the F1 Garage experience curated by Gordon Ramsay will also be featured at the legendary Monaco Grand Prix, taking place from May 23 to 25, 2025. Guests will be treated to an extraordinary gastronomic journey infused with Riviera flair, showcasing seasonal ingredients and refined flavors reflective of Monte Carlo’s elegance. Against the backdrop of the Mediterranean and roaring engines, this fusion of haute cuisine and motorsport will elevate the Monaco race weekend into a truly multisensory celebration of speed, style, and sophistication.
