Fuelling Focus at the Track: Trackside Focus® x The Mud Co.
There’s nothing quite like the energy of a race weekend - the roar of engines, the smell of rubber, the adrenaline of capturing every action-packed moment. But when you’re trackside for hours at a time, one thing becomes just as essential as your camera gear: great coffee.
That’s where Trackside Focus® and The Mud Co. come together - to keep your focus sharp and your coffee fix up to date, no matter where you are at the circuit.
Coffee, Anywhere You Need It
From the media centre to the pit wall, or right there trackside under the roar of GT3s tearing down the straight, The Mud Co.’s compact coffee system makes it easy to enjoy an actual espresso wherever the action takes you.
Designed for the realities of life at the race circuit, it’s portable, durable, and built to travel. No complicated setup, no barista skills required - just charge it up, pop in your favourite pods and within minutes you’re holding a cup of smooth, rich espresso that tastes like it came straight from a café. It really is that simple and easy.
When you’ve been on your feet for hours, chasing cars around the race track, or scrabbling through your memory cards for the perfect shot out of those 4000 you just took, those few minutes of peace with a proper coffee make all the difference. The Mud Co. system turns any workspace - a folding table in the paddock, the boot of your rental car, or a corner of the media room into your own personal coffee bar.
Because when sleep isn’t on the schedule, you need something you can count on to keep your focus razor-sharp and your energy steady. And that’s exactly what this setup delivers - no fuss, no compromise, just great coffee, anywhere the race weekend takes you.
Perfect for Endurance Weekends
Shooting a marathon event like the 24H Barcelona demands focus, stamina, and more than a few good coffees. The Mud Co. setup slips seamlessly into your gear kit, making it the perfect companion for photographers, videographers, and race crews who live life on the move.
It’s the ultimate trackside companion: no bulky kit needed, no queues at the paddock café, no lukewarm, watery instant coffee. Just fresh, barista-quality espresso on demand - wherever your workspace happens to be. Whether you’re editing under a pop-up tent, recharging in the motor-home, or catching a five-minute break between stints, The Mud Co. system delivers consistent, quality coffee wherever you are.
My Experience with The Mud Co. at the 24H Barcelona
I put The Mud Co. setup to the test myself during our recent 24H Barcelona workshop, and honestly, it was a total game-changer. Between sessions and hours spent running between pit lane, trackside and the media centre, having reliable and great coffee on hand made all the difference. It was especially welcome at 5am in the morning when heading back to the track for sunrise!
It’s incredibly easy to travel with - small enough to tuck into your bag or carry over your shoulder in its compact sling bag, plus charging is a breeze, whether you’re in the hotel, media room, or even travelling due to being USB-C compatible. And speaking of hotels - we’ve all been there: the dreaded tiny kettle and instant sachet combo, or worse, no coffee at all. With The Mud Co. system, that’s never an issue. You can brew a proper espresso right in your hotel room before heading out for sunrise - no hunting for cafes, no waiting in line.
Another thing I love about The Mud Co espresso machine setup is how easy it is to clean and maintain. After a long day at the track, the last thing you want is a complicated cleanup routine - and with this, you don’t have to worry. Just a quick rinse, wipe down and it’s ready to go again. No mess, no fuss - just simple, smart design that’s made for life on the road.
The whole system is designed for life on the move, making it the perfect travel companion for any motorsport weekend away. Reliable, simple, and always ready to brew amazing coffee when you need it most.
