Formula 1 is proving that speed and sustainability can go hand in hand. By reducing its carbon emissions by 26% since 2018, the sport is redefining what it means to race responsibly—showing that even the fastest sport on earth can lead the way toward a greener future.

Formula 1 has always been the fastest sport on earth. Now, it’s proving it can be one of the smartest and most sustainable too. By the end of 2024, F1 achieved a 26% reduction in carbon emissions since 2018 — cutting its footprint from 228,793 tCO₂e to 168,720 tCO₂e.

This milestone shows that even a sport built on speed and global logistics can slow down its environmental impact while maintaining world-class performance.


How Formula 1 is accelerating sustainability

F1’s Net Zero by 2030 strategy is more than a headline target — it’s backed by visible action across the sport:

  • Factory-to-flag sustainability: renewable energy at bases, biofuel freight, and smarter logistics routes.

  • Next-gen fuels: a commitment to 100% sustainable fuel from 2026.

  • Collaborative action: teams, promoters, and partners working together to drive results.

This isn’t just an operational shift; it’s a cultural change across motorsport.


Experienz: powering motorsport’s ESG journey

At Experienz, we’re proud to already be embedded in the motorsport ecosystem. Our partnership with Silverstone Circuit is a proven story of how sustainability can be measured, managed, and communicated effectively.

With our platform, Silverstone has been able to:

  • Streamline ESG data collection and reporting.

  • Gain deeper visibility into its environmental impact.

  • Engage stakeholders with trusted, audit-ready metrics.


The Scope 3 challenge: where the real race lies

While progress is impressive, one challenge looms largest: Scope 3 emissions. These are the indirect emissions across supply chains, freight, and fan travel — and they represent the majority of F1’s footprint.

This is where Experienz makes the difference. Our data-driven platform is designed to:

  • Track and analyze complex Scope 3 emissions with precision.

  • Automate ESG data collection and reporting for regulatory and stakeholder needs.

  • Leverage AI-driven insights to identify reduction opportunities without compromising performance.

By addressing Scope 3, we help motorsport organisations tackle the hardest part of the net-zero equation.

Our solution is powered by AWS and uses these AWS services: Amazon Bedrock, Amazon S3, AWS Lambda, AWS RDS, Amazon ElastiCache, Amazon API Gateway, and Amazon CloudFront.

The road ahead: elite performance + sustainability

We wholeheartedly welcome the leadership shown by the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA), Motorsport UK, and all forward-thinking teams, promoters, and sponsors driving this journey.

The message is clear: elite performance and sustainability can win together.

At Experienz, we’re here to power that journey — from Silverstone to the global stage — turning ESG data into measurable value and accelerating motorsport’s net-zero vision.
