Mercedes F1 records sustainability win

Mercedes F1 achieves 54 per cent carbon reduction compared to 2022.

F1 is not automatically synonymous with sustainability, but Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 has published its 2025 Sustainability Report demonstrating that even the hardest sectors can male significant progress.

Since 2022 the team has reduced its Race Team Control emissions by 54 per cent and as the business has grown, net carbon emissions have fallen.

Toto Wolff, CEO, commented: “Our ambition is to become one of the most sustainable global professional sports teams and 2025 was the year that sustainability became inseparable from performance. I am proud to lead a team committed to that goal, and capable of achieving it.”

As part of the sustainability drive 30,688 tCO2e aviation emissions were saved through use of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) between 2025 and 2022, with 11,504 tCO2e saved in 2025, and since 2022, petrol consumption has fallen 49 per cent, from 1.4 million kWh to 732,000 kWh.

The team has a formal supplier code of conduct to ensure the supply chain is also moving in a sustainable direction, and approximately 18,900 tCO₂e of carbon removals were committed to across its nature-based, hybrid and engineered portfolio, to be delivered across 2024-2030.

The team’s climate transition action plan (CTAP) sets out commitments to achieve net-zero by 2040, with clear targets to cover Scope 3 emissions, including a pathway to Race Team Control net-zero by 2030, alongside a new supply chain target for 2030.

Delivery will be driven through a combination of reducing Race Team Control emissions and working with our suppliers on their own decarbonisation journeys, as well as investing high-quality removals to address the small proportion of residual emissions that cannot be eliminated through reductions.
