Friday favourite: How a friendly face helped a newcomer navigate F1’s most chaotic season

Quite apart from the unfavourable competitive situation of March Grand Prix in 1982, the year’s dizzying politics and the deaths of two fellow Formula 1 drivers made it a tough baptism for Raul Boesel.

Macau Grand Prix first as 100% sustainable fuel powers FIA GT World Cup field

Sport news

In line with the FIA GT Commission-developed fuel roadmap and through partnerships with ETS Racing Fuels, the FIA GT World Cup competitors relied on 50% sustainable fuel in the 2023 edition of the event, which marked the return of FIA racing to the streets of Macau for the first time since 2019.

The 50% sustainable drop-in solution was adopted as the first step of the transition towards sustainable power sources last year, allowing for the seamless implementation of the fuel by the competitors amid a rather short timeframe.  

This year, the FIA’s most prestigious GT3 competition has reached another notable environmental milestone, with all 23 cars from six different GT3 manufacturers set to battle it out for the FIA GT World Cup powered by 100% sustainable fuel from the Renewablaze line by ETS Racing Fuels.

The fuel, made from second-generation bio-components sourced from bio-waste, requires only minor engine mapping adjustments and has been thoroughly tested by GT3 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 motor sport.

The 2024 FIA GT World Cup, along with the Macau GP co-headlining FIA FR World Cup, will benefit from extensive live streaming via the FIA’s official YouTube channel.

What could have been: Jenson Button’s F3000 test, 25 years on

When Fortec Motorsport bowed out of International Formula 3000 at the end of 2000, it did so with a single podium courtesy of Jamie Davies finishing second in Monaco. Another provisionally taken by Andreas Scheld at the Nurburgring was chalked off for the most minor of technical infractions, a stray piece of tape on the front wing endplate following a change of nose robbing the German of a true …Keep reading
