When I left Formula 1 in 2019, I still had plenty of interest in doing more things. It felt like the right time so together with Nilay Shah, professor of engineering at Imperial College, we converted Zero into a real idea that has grown into a thriving company of 53 employees so far.
Although I’m happy to see racing series increasingly adopting sustainable fuels, I truly believe we’re pioneering the end game with synthetic fuels. It’s a tremendously exciting project and a testament to that is we’ve managed to attract some young engineers from leading F1 teams to join our adventure of moving from fossil fuels to synthetic fuels.
