Streaming the Formula 1 Rivalry: F1 and the Media
Research webinar featuring Raymond Boyle, Professor of Communications and Director of the Centre for Cultural Policy Research at the University of Glasgow, and Richard Haynes, Professor of Media Sport at the Division of Communications, Media and Culture at the University of Stirling (Scotland).
Taking the global sport of Formula 1 (F1) motor racing as a sustained case study, Raymond Boyle & Richard Haynes’ recent book Streaming the Formula 1 Rivalry: Sport and the Media in the Platform Age examines how the relationship between the sport and the media has evolved in this new digital environment. In his favorable review for idrottsforum.org, Hans Erik Næss confesses that the book delights his academic sensibilities like a child in a candy store. Overall, he concludes, Boyle & Haynes’ book is a valuable contribution to the study of motorsport and the media.
The seminar is moderated by Dr. Xavier Ginesta, lecturer in Sport Marketing and director of the Communication Sciences Department at the University of Vic – Central University of Catalonia (UVic-UCC).
