Recommended Fuji Lens for Formula 1

[enriquetoronto]

I will be covering for the first time a Formula 1 race in Toronto. What are the suggested lens I should take for a X-T2. I will be everywhere and every event at race.

I've shot Le Mans and used a 50-140 with a 2x TC which gives you 400mm equivalent at f/5.6 worked very well. If you'd like examples let me know.

Better than a suggestion - take a look at Chris' articles:

Are you covering it officially or just as a spectator? The reason I ask is think about whether you will be shooting through a fence. If you are shooting through a fence then the faster 50-140 can be useful. (you can also use the lens for "normal use" it's an awesome lens. Then use the tc for longer reach. If you are not shooting through a fence then the 100-400 will probably be ok.
