EU wants F1 to adopt cleaner rules
Wed 16 Jan, 08:40 AM



The European Parliament has asked Formula One to 'change their rules' in favour 
of more environmentally friendly technology. 

While the FIA has already paved the way for things like electronic energy 
recovery systems, smaller engines and bio-fuels, a statement on behalf of EU 
politicians said motorsport can play a bigger role in 'changing attitudes and 
customer behaviour towards environmentally friendly technology.' 

The statement was part of a European Parliament report (CARS 21) that was 
adopted with 607 votes in favour, 76 against and 14 abstentions. 

"The House therefore asks the FIA and others involved in Formula One to change 
their rules accordingly, so that environmentally friendly technologies like 
bio-fuels, four-cylinder engines or hybrid can be more easily applied," it 
read.
