The FIA GT World Cup grid will be 100% powered by sustainable fuel for the first time during this year’s seventh World Cup, the FIA has announced.
The measure is in line with the FIA GT Commission-developed fuel roadmap, which, through partnerships with ETS Racing Fuels, the FIA GT World Cup competitors had already run last year on 50% sustainable fuel.
This year, the FIA’s most prestigious GT3 competition has reached another milestone for environmental goals.
All 23 cars from six manufacturers will use 100% sustainable fuel for the first time from the Renewablaze line by ETS Racing Fuels.
The 50% sustainable drop-in solution was adopted in 2023 as the first step of the transition towards sustainable power sources, allowing manufacturers to adjust for the seamless implementation of the fuel in a short timeframe.
This year’s fuel is made from second-generation bio-components sourced from bio-waste.
It requires only minor engine mapping adjustments and has been thoroughly tested by all manufacturers in preparation for this year’s FIA GT World Cup.
Earlier this year, ETS Racing Fuels was awarded the FIA Three-Star Environmental Accreditation, the highest level of environmental sustainability recognition from the governing body of world motorsport.
