Alfheim asked:
Do they transport the cars/equipment by sea/air? And what about the team trucks that are present at every race, are the same trucks used at every race?

Yeah they transport the cars in the trucks !
Can“t imagine they transport the trucks from 1 continent to another ! Think they change them.
But the cars are sent by air.

they catch ferry’s to and from the European venues (well the English based ones do, usually P&O - seen it). the lorries are imaculately polished, even the tyres. if you were to stand next to one in the paddock you would think it was brand new. for further afield GPs the cars are transported by air. not sure about the trucks though.

Some components are shipped via air.

I read in a F1 magazine that F1 cars are usually bundled into a few trucks to be air freighted via “Air Bernie”, don’t know the name of that company but in that case it is a company owned by Bernie mainly especially to air freight F1 cars
