Extinc♏tion Rebell🌟ion plans to protest to raise awareness about the emissions produced by motorsport.

Its protest will be a ‘Formula 0’ bicycle ride through Zan🍌dvoort on Sunday෴.

Vettel himself has been a big advocate 🌠and supporter of F1 reducing its♌ impact on the environment.

Sp😼eaking ahead of this weekend's return to the Netherlands Vettel was asked to give his thoughts on the protest.

“I think in general we are living in a time where it is important to raise attention and I think that’s what they’re doing,” Vettel said. “If you ask me what I would respond with Formula 1 is doing, I think there’s a lไot of things that Formula 1 is planning to do, some small things that🤪 Formula 1 is taking action on, which is good. But is it enough?

“No, it’s not enough. Is it enough what we are doing as a society? Obviously it’s very ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ💧⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚdifferent in every single country and some countries are further along than others. Some people are further along in their heads addressing this topic than others. But as a whole of humanity, are we doing enough?

“Probably not. So I think it is vital that we understand 🔯what is at stake and if we don’t get it, then I think there is no future. It sounds very dark, but equally, on the bright side, there’s a lot of things that we can do.

“And I believe there’s a place for Formu𒁏la 1, providing Formula 1 is addressing the right things and making the right moves. Now, as I said, there can always be more that is done. The small things that are taken action on is good is a first step, but not more than the first step yet.”

Seven-time champion Lewis Haꦰmilton has previously expressed his support for environmental causes.

He was also asked about the protests, wher🌸e he replied: “Well I mean ultimately it’s not my responsibility to go and do a presentation to them and explain what Formula 1 is doing, but Formula 1 has a🅠lready expressed the steps they want to take by 2030. 

“Naturally things don’t change 🥂overnight and I think it’s great that Formula 1 are accepting and holding themselve𒈔s responsible and realizing that they do need to make changes moving forwards. Ultimately us drivers we rely on Formula 1 and the organisers to make sure we are trying to have as positive an impact on the places we go to.”
