McLaren Racing has published its 2025 Sustainability Report, outlining a 39 per cent reduction in operational emissions, a first-of-its-kind roadmap to a circular Formula 1 car, and an expanded female driver programme that reflects the team\u2019s growing ambition on and off the racetrack.<\/p>\n
The report, released on 28 May 2026, covers environmental and social performance across the 2025 calendar year. It arrives in the wake of the team\u2019s tenth Constructors\u2019 World Championship and Lando Norris\u2019 first Drivers\u2019 title, and makes the case that racing success and sustainability progress are not competing priorities.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs our sport continues to see incredible growth around the world, it is all the more important that we work hard to reduce our overall impact on the planet and the pressures on global resources,\u201d said Zak Brown, CEO at McLaren Racing. \u201cCollaboration and great partnerships are essential to us achieving that.\u201d<\/p>\n
Roadmap to a circular car<\/p>\n
The centrepiece of the Planet section of the report is a Circular Car Roadmap, developed with Official Transformation Partner Deloitte and underpinned by Google\u2019s data processing tools. The roadmap sets out a structured pathway to rethink how race cars are designed, manufactured and reused, with the goal of reducing environmental impact and waste at every stage of the car\u2019s life.<\/p>\n
The plan is built around five pillars: F1 car manufacture, data, people, supply chain and the broader F1 ecosystem. Each pillar contains short-term opportunities within the team\u2019s direct control and longer-term requirements that will depend on supplier and industry engagement.<\/p>\n
In the short term, the team aims to reduce manufacturing waste, trial zero-waste processes and test bio-derived, recyclable and recycled alternatives for key materials. The longer-term vision is more ambitious: all materials 100 per cent bio-derived, reused or recycled; no waste sent to energy recovery or landfill; and power unit and tyre manufacturers engaged on circularity beyond the chassis.<\/p>\n
McLaren maintained a circularity metric of 22 per cent across F1 chassis production in 2025. That figure, calculated using the F1 Constructors\u2019 Circularity Handbook methodology developed with the FIA and Deloitte in 2024, accounts for recycled metals, bio-derived materials, general waste recycling and hazardous liquid recycling. The team held that score despite a high-development year ahead of Formula 1\u2019s major 2026 regulation changes, which drove increased material consumption.<\/p>\n
Achieving 50 per cent circularity, the report notes, is possible through optimising all waste outflows. Reaching 100 per cent demands a more fundamental rethink of the materials used in car design and production, work the team says is already under way.<\/p>\n
Contributing to the 2025 figure were three specific circular material inflows: carbon fibre composite containing 28 per cent bio-derived epoxy, flax fibre composite, and composite tooling board with bio-derived content. The team also reported 5.7 tonnes of bio-derived tooling board used across the year.<\/p>\n
Total waste across operations fell 14 per cent compared to 2024, with hazardous waste disposal in composites manufacturing down 40 per cent, the result of improved waste segregation, better material-flow visibility and targeted manufacturing interventions.<\/p>\n
Cutting emissions across operations<\/p>\n
The team recorded a 39 per cent reduction in operational emissions against its baseline, driven by biofuel use across its operated fleet, sustainable aviation fuel certificates for business and logistics travel, race calendar efficiencies and freight optimisation.<\/p>\n
Working with partner Ecolab, McLaren expanded its SAF investment to cover 100 per cent of Formula 1 charter logistics in addition to all business air travel, equivalent to a combined 1.1 million US gallons of fuel. The team also participated in Formula 1 Management\u2019s voluntary SAF logistics scheme, covering 100 per cent of charter freight for the 2025 season and avoiding an estimated 2,000 tonnes of CO2e.<\/p>\n
Business travel emissions fell 62 per cent against the team\u2019s baseline. Third-party logistics were down 47 per cent, and fuel and facilities emissions fell 30 per cent.<\/p>\n
The team also continued its use of hydrotreated vegetable oil across outbound truck logistics to European races, and worked with show car scheduling to reduce unnecessary freight movements and shift some shipments from air to sea.<\/p>\n
On a per-race basis, overall emissions fell 13 per cent from the 2022 baseline to 2,493 tCO2e per event across all series, with Formula 1 emissions per race down 11 per cent.<\/p>\n
Supply chain emissions, which represent 75 per cent of the team\u2019s total footprint, increased 34 per cent as the business grew. McLaren was direct about the challenge, acknowledging that supplier engagement will be central to long-term progress and that it is working with the Science-Based Targets initiative to ensure its decarbonisation goals remain credible as the business expands.<\/p>\n
The team\u2019s total 2025 GHG footprint was 113,818 tCO2e. McLaren holds validated near-term and net-zero climate targets committing to halve emissions by 2030 and reach net-zero by 2040.<\/p>\n
OSCAR and the Great Barrier Reef<\/p>\n
The report devoted significant space to McLaren\u2019s Accelerator programme, which applies F1 engineering methods to sustainability challenges beyond motorsport. The headline project was the launch of OSCAR, the Operational System for Coral Assembly and Restoration.<\/p>\n
Developed in partnership with the Great Barrier Reef Foundation, OSCAR is a robotic assembly system that prepares coral planting devices at scale. The machine reduces the time to assemble one device from up to 90 seconds by hand to just 10 seconds, representing an 800 per cent efficiency gain. It can produce more than one million devices per year, compared to roughly 100,000 through the previous manual process, while also reducing costs by up to 80 per cent.<\/p>\n
Factory Acceptance Testing was completed in early 2026. The system is currently being tested in Australia, with the technology designed to be deployable at reefs around the world.<\/p>\n
The Accelerator team also reported progress on a soil sampling project with carbon removal organisation UNDO, where a lightweight, renewable energy-powered drilling solution has reduced sampling time by 70 per cent and cut associated emissions by 90 per cent.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s fantastic to see our McLaren Accelerator team apply motorsport know-how to other industries, with our engineers working alongside marine biologists to find solutions in coral restoration,\u201d said Brown.<\/p>\n
Three Ellas and a second F1 Academy car<\/p>\n
On the people front, the report detailed the expansion of McLaren\u2019s Driver Development Programme with the signing of three female drivers: Ella Lloyd, Ella Stevens and Ella Hakkinen. The team also committed a second car to the all-female F1 Academy series for 2026, making it the only Formula 1 team to field two drivers in the championship.<\/p>\n
Lloyd, named 2025 F1 Academy Rookie of the Year, secured five podium finishes including a race win in Jeddah and finished fourth overall in the standings. Stevens, crowned Vice Champion in the 2025 British Karting Championship, joined as the second McLaren junior in the F1 Academy series for 2026 and set the fastest time at the inaugural F1 Academy Rookie Test. Hakkinen joined the Driver Development Programme at 14 years of age.<\/p>\n
The programme is part of a broader push to open pathways for women in motorsport. McLaren is the only Formula 1 team to field two drivers in F1 Academy, and the report noted that its female fanbase continues to grow year-on-year across digital platforms, with the highest proportion of female followers among F1 teams on Instagram and TikTok.<\/p>\n
Chief Marketing Officer Louise McEwen and Chief Financial Officer Laura Bowden became the 11th and 12th women in history to stand on an F1 podium, doing so at Miami and Zandvoort respectively.<\/p>\n

Workforce diversity and inclusion<\/p>\n
The report recorded that 44.8 per cent of new starters in 2025 came from underrepresented groups, bringing the overall proportion of the workforce from such backgrounds to 36 per cent. The team\u2019s target is 40 per cent by 2030, a figure it says it is now tracking ahead of schedule.<\/p>\n
Women represent 22 per cent of the overall workforce, with 10 per cent in technical functions, up from seven per cent in 2024. The team acknowledged that women remain significantly underrepresented in engineering and racing-focused roles, where the challenge is most acute.<\/p>\n
An overall employee retention rate of 82.4 per cent was reported, with voluntary attrition at 6.6 per cent. The team recruited 279 employees across the year.<\/p>\n
Separately, McLaren was ranked 73rd in Sustainability Magazine\u2019s global list of the most sustainable companies, the only racing team to appear in the top 200.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor me, it\u2019s not just about the results. It\u2019s about what they show is possible when data, collaboration and marginal gains come together to drive faster progress on the challenges that matter most,\u201d said Kim Wilson, Director of Sustainability at McLaren Racing.<\/p>\n

\nFormula One, or F1, is the highest class of single-seater auto racing, governed by the F\u00e9d\u00e9ration Internationale de l\\’Automobile (FIA) and is owned by Liberty Media. The name “Formula One” refers to the set of rules or formula that all cars and drivers must comply with.
\n
\nThe F1 season consists of a series of races, known as Grands Prix, held on purpose-built circuits or public roads around the world. The results of each race are combined to determine two annual championships: one for drivers and one for constructors (teams).
\n
\nThe history of Formula One can be traced back to the pre-war Grand Prix racing, which featured open-wheel cars with supercharged engines. The first World Championship of Drivers was organised by the FIA in 1950, following the end of World War II. The first race was held at Silverstone, England, and was won by Giuseppe Farina, driving an Alfa Romeo. The first constructors\\’ championship was introduced in 1958 and was won by Vanwall.
\n
\nFormula One has seen many changes and innovations over the years, both in terms of technology and regulations. Some of the most notable developments include the introduction of rear-engined cars in the late 1950s, the use of aerodynamic wings in the late 1960s, the adoption of turbocharged engines in the late 1970s, the emergence of electronic driver aids in the late 1980s, the switch to V10 and then V8 engines in the 1990s and 2000s, and the introduction of hybrid power units in 2014.
\n
\nFormula One has also produced some of the greatest drivers and rivalries in the history of motorsport. Some of the most famous names include Juan Manuel Fangio, Jim Clark, Jackie Stewart, Niki Lauda, Ayrton Senna, Alain Prost, Michael Schumacher, Lewis Hamilton, and Sebastian Vettel. Some of the most intense battles for the championship have been between Fangio and Stirling Moss in the 1950s, Lauda and James Hunt in the 1970s, Senna and Prost in the late 1980s, Schumacher and Mika Hakkinen in the late 1990s, and Hamilton and Vettel in the 2010s.
\n
\nFormula One is widely regarded as the pinnacle of motorsport, attracting millions of fans and viewers worldwide. The sport is also a huge business, involving billions of dollars in revenue and expenditure. The teams compete for prize money, sponsorship deals, and media rights, while the drivers earn millions of dollars in salaries and endorsements. The sport is also influenced by politics, regulations, and controversies, such as doping scandals, espionage cases, safety issues, and environmental concerns.
