Team RAC created history while taking part in the 2006 British Touring Car Championship by becoming the first motor sport team to achieve a podium finish using bio-fuels. The UK’s premier motor sport series accepts the use of the road fuel E85 (85% renewable fuel bio-ethanol with 15% petrol), but no bio-ethanol cars had previously won a podium finish in the championship. We recognise that alternative fuel issues are high on the social and corporate agenda both in terms of environmental protection and fossil fuel sustainability. By demonstrating its use on the track we hope that other teams will recognise that the use of renewable fuel is viable in competition. Our wish is to see more teams and other motor sport championships switching to bio-fuels soon.
