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

The start of last year’s race at Silve𒐪rstone was invaded by a group of "Just Stop Oiꦜl" campaigners.
Fortunately due to the race being red-flagged anyway due to 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Zhou Guanyu’s crash, the protest had a limited impact onꦺ the race.
The same group has been active in a number of sporting events in recent months, in🗹cluding Snooker, Cricket and Rug♉by.
Unlike in other spots, the risks in F1 are significantly greater for campaigners to enter the track given the 200 mph ⭕speeds.
In an interview with Sky Sports, Wolff addressed the prospe🍌ct of a potential protest at Silverstone this weekend.
"I think from our side, one needs to understand that our i✤ndustry is trailblazing in sustainability. We're having sustainable fuels. ﷺIn 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 2💃00 miles per hour. You're putting yourselves in danger and also the drivers.
"I can speak for our drivers, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton. They wouldn't want to have anybo🌠dy being at risk, spectators, fans o꧋r themselves. That is not the place to take big risks. You're not blocking anybody but you're seriously putting people at harm."

F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali made it clear that the sport is “really engaged” on various sustainꦛ꧙able issues.
"We are not here to dispute any different opinions on things, but to do things that are getting da💝ngerou𝔍s and basically destroying events that hundreds 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 sustainability is there, so we are really engaged on that."
