Former Formula 1 Driver Eric van de Poele Partners with RaceStreaming
RaceStreaming, the live onboard video streaming platform for motorsport, is proud to announce a new partnership with former Formula 1 driver and professional coach Eric van de Poele. Through this collaboration, RaceStreaming and Eric van de Poele will work together to bring advanced live onboard video technology to drivers, teams, organizers, and racing schools across multiple motorsport disciplines.
With experience at the highest level of motorsport, Eric van de Poele has been an early and strong advocate of the RaceStreaming platform. Highlighting both performance and safety benefits, he emphasizes how live onboard video can transform coaching, testing, and race operations.
“Finally, a reliable, efficient, and lightweight system that has been long awaited. Not only for tracking teammates during their relays, but also for teams to follow live developments during private tests. Another new feature is the ability to coach students live on single-seaters, karts, or motorcycles from the pits. It’s also very effective for rallying and a key to safety at all levels, starting with the organizers if they wish.”

As part of the partnership, Eric van de Poele will actively use RaceStreaming as a coaching and development tool, offering drivers live feedback directly from the pit lane during sessions. This creates a new level of interaction between coach and driver, accelerating learning, improving lap times, and enhancing driver confidence.
