The shot

Drones photographed every featured circuit for VFX, with more than 13,000 photos at Silverstone alone. The famous Silverstone opening aerial was flown by helicopter (AS355 Twin Squirrel, Shotover F1, Sony Venice 2).

Shows where drones fit in a modern aerial plan: scanning and VFX, alongside helicopters for high-speed tracking.
