During the recent Hagerty Radical Cup UK, Gavin McAlpine made history by being the first driver to use synthetic fuel in the championship, crossing the finish line using SUSTAIN Super 80 from Coryton without any modifications to his SR3 XXR. Supported by RAW Motorsports, Gavin participated in front of over 20,000 spectators, showcasing sustainable fuel developed by Coryton. These fuels are derived from second-generation biofuels manufactured from agricultural waste, utilizing existing carbon from the atmosphere instead of releasing additional CO2 like fossil fuels. Gavin expressed his passion for sustainable fuels and technological advancements, highlighting the importance of contributing to a low carbon future through innovative solutions like SUSTAIN. Radical Motorsport’s Global Head of Marketing, Jon Roach, mentioned the exciting potential of sustainable fuels in motorsport, emphasizing the positive impact on performance and the environment. The SUSTAIN Super 80 fuel used by Gavin during the race weekend required no calibration and could be mixed with traditional petrol without modifications, representing a significant step towards a greener future in racing and transportation.
