As the Official Logistics Partner of Formula 1, DHL transported up to 1,400 tons of material per race this season, including race cars, engines, fuel, as well as marketing and hospitality equipment. The introduction of biofuel-powered trucks for the European leg of the racing series marks an important step towards sustainable logistics, reducing carbon emissions by an average of 83% compared to conventionally powered trucks. Furthermore, since the Australian Grand Prix, approximately 20% of Formula 1 cargo flights to races outside Europe in 2024 utilized Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), reducing greenhouse gas emissions by around 80% per flight compared to conventional aviation fuel. Through multimodal and sustainable logistics solutions, DHL supports Formula 1's goal of achieving Net Zero by 2030.
"DHL is an indispensable partner for the successful execution of the Formula 1 World Championship", said Jonny Haworth, Director of Commercial Partnerships at Formula 1. "The company's logistics expertise and commitment to sustainability have played a crucial role in helping us conclude another successful season."
