Default Green F1?
The Formula One Teams' Association (FOTA) is planning a raft of environmentally friendly regulation changes in the coming seasons to slash emissions and increase fuel efficiency.

The body has received the results of an environmental research analysis of Formula 1, and is confident that it can cut carbon emissions by more than 12 per cent in the next three years. It has also targeted engine and gearbox regulations from 2013 to include new fuel efficient technologies. http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/84898

Apparently just 0.29% of the total emissions comes from burning fuel in the cars, with the majority from building the cars, developing parts, and of course aviation. So logically staying in Europe for more races, rather than jetting off to soulless new Tilkedromes would please everyone, right?
