Jean Todt: No category will escape zero emissions
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Linkedin

The president of the International Automobile Federation, Jean Todt, is convinced that all categories of motorsport must reach the common goal of zero emissions.

The head of the motor sport governing body believes that there are different ways to achieve this goal, so not all categories have to rely on electric motors.

“We were pioneers with the hybrid power unit in Formula 1, and we have Formula E. But the same must also happen in rallies and in touring car championships,” he explained. “No categories will be able to escape this common destiny.”

As former Mercedes president Norbert Haug has already explained, biofuels, which will soon be used in Formula 1 as well, and alternative fuels could play an important role and make motorsport a place for innovation. Alternative fuels could be used to power millions of existing vehicles and reach the goal of zero emissions.

Difficulties

However, the high price and low efficiency of e-fuels remain an obstacle to their widespread use. Another area of research is the propulsion of cars by hydrogen.

A new engine regulation will be adopted in Formula 1 in 2025, but hydrogen is considered unlikely to be an option by then. At Le Mans, it is a different story.

“Many are working on it and the FIA will give its contribution. We are doing a lot of tests in our laboratories and will soon make an announcement concerning hydrogen,” said.

Total, Red Bull and Oreca are working on a hydrogen-powered prototype for the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2024, but it is not yet known when this technology will reach other championships.

Todt is excited about Formula E because he has taken one of many steps to establish a more sustainable motorsport.

“We have great manufacturers, great teams like Penske and Andretti, and also great drivers. In short, we have all the ingredients for a strong and interesting championship. In Rome we have seen very interesting and close races,” he concluded.
