🏎️ Formula 1's Shift to 100% Sustainable Fuel: A Game Changer for Motorsport and the Environment 🌍 As F1 speeds towards its goal of becoming net-zero carbon by 2030, the transition to 100% sustainable fuel is a huge milestone not just for the sport, but for the future of high-performance automotive technology. 🔋 Starting in 2026, F1 cars will run on biofuels and synthetic fuels made from renewable sources like agricultural waste and carbon capture. This shift ensures that F1 continues to deliver adrenaline-pumping races while drastically reducing carbon emissions—proving that performance and sustainability can go hand in hand. F1's hybrid power units already use 40% less fuel per race since their introduction in 2014, and the adoption of 100% sustainable fuel will take it to the next level. The development of these fuels could influence not only motorsport but other industries like aviation and shipping, where electrification isn't yet feasible. 🌱 This is a bold step towards a cleaner, greener future, showing how innovation in motorsport can pave the way for change across the automotive world. #F1 #Sustainability #GreenInnovation #AutomotiveIndustry #CleanEnergy #Formula1 #Motorsport #SustainableFuture Image credit: sportscardsdirect. co. uk

🏁🌍 Formula 1's Leap Towards Sustainability – A Milestone Worth Celebrating! 🌍🏁 As a fan of Formula 1, a sport that combines high-speed thrill with cutting-edge technology, I was quite impressed when I read this article today: https://lnkd.in/esxU6DDA Formula 1 has recently published its inaugural #ImpactReport, and the results are quite interesting. The sport is transforming - aligning its high-octane excitement with an equally powerful commitment to the planet. Demonstrating a commitment to #sustainability, the sport has successfully reduced its #carbonfootprint by 13% since 2018, making significant strides towards its ambitious #NetZero Carbon goal by 2030. For those interested in the specifics of how a global sport can dramatically shift its operational paradigm to meet the challenges of climate change, I highly recommend diving into the full report. It details innovative steps like the integration of Pirelli FSC-certified tyres and a shift towards 100% sustainable fuels. The move to renewable energy sources and smarter logistics solutions illustrates Formula 1’s leadership in marrying performance with sustainability. It’s not just a blueprint for motorsports but for any industry aiming to make significant environmental changes https://lnkd.in/e3HteVBJ TMC, Formula Electric Belgium #Formula1 #Sustainability #Innovation #Motorsports #PeopleDriveTechnology

Formula 1 to transport 20% air cargo on SAF Motor racing competition Formula 1 announced that it will use sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to on 20% of its flights haul cargo this season in partnership with DHL. “Formula 1 has always been at the forefront of innovation, and our early stage investment in Sustainable Aviation Fuel is a testament to our dedication to deliver on our Net Zero by 2030 commitment. SAF is just the latest step for the business, and underscores how alternative fuels both on and off track can materially reduce carbon emissions. This delivery of our sustainability strategy is only made possible through coordinated actions across our sport,” said Ellen Jones, Head of ESG, Formula 1. #sustainableaviationfuel #SAF #cleanaviationfuel #biofuel #renewablejetfuel #aviationemissions #decarbonization #climatechange #sustainability #greenaviation #aviationindustry #airlineindustry #aerospaceindustry #energytransition #lowcarboneconomy #greeneconomy Read full below. https://lnkd.in/eePD2hG7

NEWS: A new scheme has been established to deliver certified sustainable fuel for Formula 1. 🏎️ The FIA – Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile has mandated the use of 100% sustainable fuel derived from 'Advanced Sustainable Components' from the 2026 Formula 1 season, ensuring that fuels come from sustainable feedstocks and that they also meet stringent greenhouse gas emissions thresholds. The Sustainable Racing Fuel Assurance Scheme (SRFAS) has been developed by Zemo Partnership in collaboration with the FIA to provide robust assurance of the deployment of sustainable, low carbon fuels in motor sport.

Formula 1 is shifting gears towards sustainability! 🏎️ Did you know that Formula 1 is not just racing on the track but also racing to reduce its environmental footprint? By using Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), F1 is slashing aviation emissions by up to 80%, making its global logistics much more eco-friendly. Here’s the twist though...SAF is only produced in limited locations. So how does F1 fuel its globe-trotting charter flights? Through the "Book and Claim" system, ensuring that while their planes might not always use SAF, the carbon savings are still counted toward their emissions goals. F1 isn’t just racing on the track—they're speeding ahead in the fight against climate change! Here's how they're leading the way- 🌱Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) powers F1’s logistics, cutting aviation emissions by 80%. Using the "Book and Claim system", F1 ensures SAF is used, even if not in their own planes, allowing them to claim carbon savings and meet sustainability targets. DHL’s provision of SAF for F1 air cargo is verified by the ISCC - International Sustainability and Carbon Certification, ensuring strict sustainability standards. 🌱F1’s investment in SAF is a key part of their goal to reach Net Zero by 2030. For the 2024 season, SAF will cover cargo flights, reducing emissions by over 4,500 tCO2e. 🌱To further reduce their carbon footprint, F1 has implemented a remote broadcast operation, meaning fewer people and equipment travel to races, with production handled from the UK. 🌱Starting in 2026, F1 will introduce new engine regulations with the mandatory use of 100% advanced sustainable fuels. This drop-in fuel can be blended with traditional fuels and used in existing engines without modifications, ushering in a new era for both racing and other sectors like aviation and shipping. As Ellen Jones, Head of ESG at Formula 1, said, "SAF is just the latest step...and underscores how alternative fuels both on and off track can materially reduce carbon emissions." #Sustainability #F1 #SAF #NetZero2030 #GreenLogistics

📌Formula 1’s Carbon Footprint: Major Sources of CO2 Emissions Formula 1 is a spectacle that attracts millions of fans around the world, as it is known as the top global motorsport category for a reason. However, behind the roar of the engines lies a less elegant but equally important reality: the carbon footprint. According to F1’s latest environmental sustainability report, there are five sources that have been identified as the main generators of CO2 emissions that contribute to this environmental footprint. #motorsport #carbon #footprint #roar  Check in:

🏎️ Formula 1 is racing towards a greener future! By 2026, F1 aims to transition to 100% sustainable fuel, combining advanced synthetic components with bio-based elements. This innovative approach is similar to the use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (#SAF) and could reduce greenhouse gas emissions of the F1 cars by up to 80% compared to fossil fuels. The best part? The efuel and biofuel technology has potential applications beyond the racetrack, paving the way for more sustainable transportation across various industries.
