Formula 1 cuts CO2 emissions by 35% since 2018

Formula 1 has reduced its carbon emissions by 35% over eight years, putting the championship on track for its net-zero target by 2030.

Formula 1 reported emissions of 148,805 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent in 2025. This marks an 11.8% drop from 168,720 tCO2e in 2024.

The figure represents a 35% reduction from the 2018 baseline of 228,793 tCO2e. The championship aims for a 50% cut by 2030, with offsets covering remaining emissions.

Gains came mainly from factories switching to renewable energy. Additional measures include greater use of sustainable aviation and maritime fuels, plus renewable power at all European races.

"Sustainability underpins every decision we make," said Ellen Jones, head of ESG at Formula 1. The sport plans further calendar changes from 2026 to support its goals.
