F1’s plea to potential British Grand Prix protestors: ‘The sport is trailblazing sustainability'

The start of last year’s race at Siꦚ🦹lverstone was invaded by a group of "Just Stop Oil" campaigners.
Fortunately due to the race being red-flagged anyway due to 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Zhou Guanyu’s crash, the protest had a limited impact on the race𒁏𓄧.
The same group has been active in a number of sporting events in recent months, including Snooke🅰r, Cricket and Rugby.
Unlike in other spots, the risks inܫ F1 are significantly greater for campaigners t🍷o enter the track given the 200 mph speeds.
In an interview with Sky Sports, Wolff addressed the prospect of a potential protest at Silverstone this weekendಌ.
"I think fr🃏om our side, one needs to understand that our industry is trailblazing in sustainabilit🉐y. We're having sustainable fuels. In 2026, it will be 100 percent sustainable fuel.
"The technology and innovation in F1 is important to achieve those mission standards and our cars are driving 200 miles💟 per hour. You're putting yourselves in danger and also the drivers.
"I can speak for our drivers, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton. They wouldn't want to have anybody being at risk, spectators, fans or themselves. That is not the place to take big risks. You're not blocking anybody but you're seri🔯ously puಌtting people at harm."

🀅F1 CEO Stef💧ano Domenicali made it clear that the sport is “really engaged” on various sustainable issues.
"We are not here to dispute any different opinions on things, but to do things that are getting dangerous and basically destroying events that hundred🐓s of thousands of people [go to] is totally wrong," Domenicali added.
"I think [there is] a way of showing what you want to do but this is totally unacceptable, so we really hope that people understand it's not the place. That's pretty clear to me. Our industry is frontline to make sure the awareness of sustainabꦕility is there, so we are really engaged on that."
