In a commitment to sustainability and innovation, DHL and Formula 1 have sealed a multi-year extension of their partnership, marking DHL’s two-decade milestone as the Official Logistics Partner of Formula 1.
The announcement signals a pivotal moment in the world of motorsports logistics, as DHL doubles down on its efforts to foster a greener future for the sport.
With Formula 1’s ambitious Net Zero goal looming on the horizon for 2030, the partnership between DHL marks the transition into a more sustainable era of transport and logistics. This year’s collaboration sees the introduction of an additional 19 biofuel-powered trucks, propelling the total fleet to 37 trucks. Each truck, on average, achieves an 83% reduction in carbon emissions compared to their diesel predecessors.
Arjan Sissing, global head of brand marketing at DHL Group, underscores the significance of the renewed partnership, stating: “We’re not just renewing our partnership; we’re celebrating DHL’s two-decade legacy as Formula 1’s trusted logistics partner, powering the pulse of the sport between the races.” The partnership, he notes, stands as a testament to shared values and a collective vision for a greener, more efficient future.
The 2024 Formula 1 season promises an exhilarating line-up of 24 races across 21 countries and five continents. Notably, the return to China marks a symbolic milestone in the sport’s resurgence post-pandemic. DHL stands at the helm of the enormous logistical effort of transporting up to 1,400 tons of high-value freight to each race venue. Read more
