World's first fully sustainable Formula 3 racing car unveiled

British scientists have unveiled world's first fully sustainable Formula 3 racing car which runs on biofuel made from chocolate and animal fats.

The researchers from University of Warwick said that the environment friendly car which was displayed to public yesterday is powered by chocolate, steered by carrots, has bodywork made from potatoes, and can still do 125 mph around corners.

The car is made from woven flax, recycled carbon fibre, recycled resin and carrot pulp for the steering wheel.

The environmentally friendly car is also fast on the wheels with a top speed of 135 mph, it can achieve 0-60 mph in 2.5 seconds and is turbo charged to give it more torque.

Having got the seal of approval from drivers such as Lewis Hamilton and Adam Carroll as well as F1 team boss Ross Brawn, the car will make its first competitive debut in the Formula 3 Championship final at Brands Hatch on 17th October, according to Science Daily.

Lead researcher Kerry Kirwan said, "Being sustainable and green can be incredibly sexy, fun and fast."

He adds that even though people's perception of motorsport is that it's wasteful, this project is "aiming to show ways for the future, for people to race and be green".
