Logistics
This year we will proudly be celebrating DHL's 20th anniversary being the Official Logistics Partner of Formula 1, as we deliver the biggest race calendar yet, with 24 races in 2024.
For 20 years, DHL have been delivering the biggest sporting moments to F1® fans across the globe. In celebration of our 20th Anniversary as the Official Logistics Partner of F1®, take a look at DHL’s most exhilarating moments, spanning multiple continents and through major world events, over the last 21 F1® seasons.
At the 2024 British GP, to celebrate our 20th anniversary as the Official Logistics Partner of F1®, we put fans to the test against DHL ambassador and F1 presenter Billy Monger to challenge their knowledge of the last two decades of the sport. Fans went head-to-head with Billy in a quiz to guess the year of some of F1®’s most iconic moments - play along and watch now to see who came out on top!
Celebrating our 20th anniversary as the Official Logistics Partner of F1®, we asked fans and DHL employees about their stand-out moments from the last 20 years in the sport. From the recent triumphs of Lando Norris’s first victory, all the way back to Lewis Hamilton’s first dramatic F1® World Championship win, there are many magic moments to be celebrated!
The Formula 1 Grand Prix de Monaco is the biggest logistical challenge over the F1 season for the DHL Motorsports team. Manoeuvring freight directly from the race in Imola to the second smallest country in the world is no mean feat. With tight, windy roads and a race that takes over the entire principality, it takes an expert logistics team to ensure the race behind the race is delivered precisely and on-time. Watch the video to learn more about how DHL delivers one of the most iconic motorsport events in the world.
DHL ambassador and presenter, Billy Monger, joined our DHL Motorsports team in Bahrain to experience what goes on behind the scenes in preparation for race day. From completing deliveries via forklift to paperwork, the team are experts at overcoming logistical challenges to ensure everything is ready for lights out!
In 2022, we made the move to Boing 777 planes in our F1® operations, whose fuel-efficient technology reduces carbon emissions by 17% over legacy aircraft. To mark the occasion, we launched a co-branded DHL X F1® plane, which is delivering F1® freight across the season.

Sustainability
As leaders in sustainable logistics, together with F1, we will continue to strive towards a more sustainable future and further bring to life our Carbon Net Zero 2030 target.
As the Official Logistics Partner of F1® for the past 20 years, we are proud to be entering a new era of sustainable race logistics! ️In 2024, we are piloting Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) across approximately 20% of F1® cargo flights. SAF is produced from a huge range of renewable sources, and reduces Carbon Emissions by an estimated 80%, compared to conventional aviation fuels - allowing DHL and F1 to accelerate towards Carbon Net Zero by 2030!
To celebrate the expansion of our biofuel-powered truck fleet, doubling in size since 2023, we delved into how the trucks compare to Formula 1® stats! Our fleet reduces carbon emissions by 83% on average, whilst transporting F1® across Europe and driving forward the race to Carbon Net Zero by 2030.
Join our DHL Ambassador Billy Monger, to explore how the surplus oil and waste products from your favourite takeaway meals can be transformed into Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). We’re proud to lead the way by fuelling approximately 20% of Formula 1® cargo flights with Sustainable Aviation Fuel, reducing Greenhouse Gas emissions by approximately 80% per flight, compared to conventional aviation fuel!

In 2023, we proudly launched our new fleet of 18 trucks powered by HVO 100 drop-in fuel, sustainably delivering F1 throughout the European Leg. A very special DHL driver took to the track to test the handling, brakes, and performance - watch to see who was behind the helmet!
As part of our race to a more sustainable future, we called into the pit, making one key change to the truck…biofuel! The change resulted in an 83% reduction in carbon emissions while transporting F1 through the European Leg – the biofuel-powered fleet will expand further in 2024.

Diversity
At DHL, we believe in the power of inclusivity and belonging, and that’s why, away from the race on the track, we are striving to make the world of logistics and motorsports a more inclusive place to be.
As part of our race to diversify the sport, we sat down with DHL Ambassador Billy Monger to chat about his inspiring journey in motorsport, career highlights, and the biggest challenges he’s faced along the way. We also discovered the power of ‘Common DNA’ amongst us all!
To inspire the future generation at the Miami Grand Prix, we asked two generations ‘what inspires them about Formula 1’. We heard from a mixture of familiar faces in the industry, workers behind the scenes, and children of DHL employees, who joined us live at the track for an exclusive insight into motorsport!
To celebrate female empowerment, we are shining a light on the incredible women working in the world of F1 through the introduction of our DHL Hot-Seat. We asked our special guests about their jobs, inspirations, secret ingredients to success, and plenty more, as part of our race to diversify the sport!
We invited the future generation to the Miami Grand Prix to learn about the different roles available within the sport, from logistics to presenting. Our special guests met with F1 Analyst Naomi Schiff to hear about her tips and tricks and enjoyed a behind-the-scenes tour in the paddock – fuelling their passion for F1!
At the Dutch Grand Prix, we made some special deliveries that put smiles on the faces of both fans and employees working behind the scenes in Formula 1®. We even put a smile on the face of Formula 1® driver, Daniel Ricciardo!
To connect our passions for Formula 1®, we asked familiar faces in the paddock to tell us what fuels their love for the sport. We also invited fans to answer the question and selected one lucky winner to attend a race live, to fuel their passion further!
