FIA Insights: How the FIA is helping to tackle plastic pollution from tyres through research and regulationThe 2023 edition of the World Environment Day aims to #BeatPlasticPollution. All FIA World Championships have seen a significant reduction in the number of tyres used in races,” he adds. The FIA Formula One World Championship and WEC were the two last FIA World Championships in which tyre warming was still allowed. Almost all non-confidential (commercial) tyres and 100% of confidential, non-commercial competition tyres used in FIA World Championships are returned to the manufacturer post-race. If successful such systems would significantly limit pollution from tyres used in motor sport and could potentially be replicated in mobility systems on a larger scale.
