Las Vegas GP reveals F1 plan Vettel would be proud of
The Las Vegas Grand Prix has introduced a new initiative focused on sustainability that would impress F1 champion Sebastian Vettel, who is known for his environmental advocacy. Despite facing scrutiny and backlash, the Las Vegas GP is making strides towards sustainability on the street circuit by planting a tree in the valley for every overtake during the race. This ‘Trees for Overtakes’ initiative aims to enhance green spaces, combat urban heat island effect, and reduce air pollution in the area. With the support of partners like IMPACT NV and Southern Nevada Water Authority, the initiative estimates planting 220 trees following the 2024 race, inspired by 113 overtakes. In line with Vettel’s environmental efforts, the Las Vegas GP organizers are actively pursuing sustainability measures such as water conservation and overall carbon neutrality targeting by 2030 within the F1 community. The collaboration between Formula 1 and Las Vegas GP underlines a shared dedication to sustainable practices and community responsibility, mirroring Vettel’s commitments in advocating for environmental protection and climate awareness initiatives.
