F1 cuts emissions 35% since 2018, targets net zero by 2030 with calendar changes and cleaner freight
scuderiafans.comFormula 1 reported a 35% reduction in CO2 emissions compared to 2018 levels, according to its latest environmental impact report. That equals roughly 80,000 tonnes cut between the 2018 and 2025 seasons. The sport aims to reach net zero carbon by 2030 through a mix of calendar regionalization, shifting freight from air to sea, and using sustainable fuels and renewable energy at race events. Emissions from team factories dropped 64% since 2018. Personnel travel emissions fell 27%, and logistics emissions fell 29%. Even with the race count rising from 21 to 24, race organization emissions still dropped 6%. The sport is also expanding use of biofuels, solar power, and battery storage at European Grands Prix. F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali credited the collective effort of teams, broadcasters, and promoters for keeping the 2030 target within reach. The next steps include moving over 50% of freight from air to sea and building regional operational hubs to cut long-distance logistics.
