One of the key elements of the WIGE Media service portfolio is the production of motor sports events on German (and neighbouring countries') race tracks. In this capacity, WIGE produced the Formula One World Feed from the Nürburgring, Hockenheimring and Hungary's Hungaroring before FOM centralized the production of the World Feed in 2007. Nevertheless, WIGE still remains a close involvement in Formula One. They provide German broadcaster RTL Television with additional services for their Formula One coverage, and also assist Formula One Management in some European races.
