Formula 1 reported a 35% reduction in its carbon emissions since 2018 as part of its commitment to achieve net-zero by 2030. This includes a 12% decline reported in 2025 alone. Significant measures contributing to this reduction include shifting logistics from air to sea freight, enhanced investment in sustainable aviation fuel, and strategic calendar revisions that group races to reduce travel. F1 aims for a 50% reduction in emissions compared to 2018 levels, with any remaining emissions offset through credible programs. Further reductions are anticipated as F1 continues to implement these strategies into the 2026 season.
