Welcome back to Untold Stories, the series that takes you behind the scenes of the diverse and dynamic world of Formula 1.

Since the return to racing after the summer break, F1 has made two significant announcements as we drive toward our Net Zero by 2030 commitment. Ahead of the Singapore Grand Prix, we announced our first investment in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) with Global Logistics Partner, DHL, utilizing SAF for approximately 20% of cargo flights this season to and from flyaway races since the Australian Grand Prix in March. Using SAF delivers an estimated 80% reduction in associated carbon emissions per flight, compared to traditional aviation fuel. We also announced that in partnership with Aggreko, the low-carbon energy generation system, which reduces relevant emissions in operational areas by >90%, will be used at every European Grand Prix from 2025, after successful trials in Austria, Hungary and Monza this year.  Alongside this news, we’ve also seen plenty of great ESG initiatives across the race weekends, including: ⚡ Formula 1 Heineken Dutch Grand Prix transitioned to a permanent green power grid, to further reduce emissions for the events operations. Using greener energy solutions, the climate footprint was reduced by 94.5% in 2023 compared to the event’s first year. 🤝 F1 ACADEMY announced a landmark collaboration with The Female Quotient, an experiential, media, and transformation advisory company that aims to advance gender equality in the workplace, ignite change and support the next generation of female talent. ♿ At the Dutch Grand Prix, increased accessibility options for fans with disabilities, including accessible hotels in the camping areas alongside sensory-friendly zones. 🌳 A reforestation programme at the Autodromo Nazionale Monza circuit following last year's storms has seen over 8,000 trees planted. 🎓 The Azerbaijan Grand Prix (Baku City Circuit Operations Company) engaged with more than 400 local students in the Baku area, providing insight into F1, and how the event is run. 💡 Singapore GP Pte Ltd pledged to halve its energy emissions by 2028 and has already cut 20.7% from 2022 levels using LED lights and solar panels. 📚 This year more than 15,000 students across 23 schools in Singapore have learnt about the Grand Prix and its positive impact thanks to a community outreach programme. 🏁 F1 ACADEMY welcomed over 100 local students to the Marina Bay Circuit to learn about motorsport and the potential careers as part of the DISCOVER YOUR DRIVE programme, as well as having six interns embedded in their operations for the race weekend. #F1 #motorsport #ESG #sustainability #STEM #diversity #inclusion #aviation #logistics #energy #sportsbiz
