DHL Tests Rail Freight for Formula 1 Logistics in North America to Cut Emissions
DHL, the official logistics partner for Formula 1, is testing the use of rail freight for transporting equipment between races in North America. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to create a more sustainable logistics model for the global motorsport event. The trial involved moving less critical freight, like track barriers and hospitality equipment, via train between the Miami, Canadian, and Austin Grands Prix. By exploring multi-modal transport options, DHL aims to significantly reduce the carbon footprint associated with F1 logistics. This move aligns with Formula 1's commitment to becoming Net Zero by 2030.
