Formula 1 is also working to develop a 100% sustainable fuel ahead of 2026, in line with the introduction of the next generation of hybrid engine, which all F1 cars will use from the 2026 season.

The introduction of sustainable fuels for F1 cars will make a contribution to the sport’s goal of achieving Net Zero by 2030 and the fuel will be designed with ‘drop-in’ capabilities for real-world use, with huge potential to decarbonize the wider automotive sector.
