That was utterly daft indeed. And I bet none of them pedalled their bicycles to the track.

Years ago, before hybrid engines and about 15 races per annum, I did a rough calc and came up that approximately one one-way flight of a 747 between London and Sidney used enough fuel to fuel every car, every session, including pre-season testing, marketing runs, etc. That flight happens multiple times every week.

I’m all for lowering carbon footprint. But daft folk hone in on daft issues. There are far bigger low-hanging fruit to pick.
