D1 Oils plc (D1), the UK-based global producer of biodiesel from renewable energy crops, is to test the performance of green diesel fuel by sponsoring the entry of a biodiesel powered car in the Le Mans global series of sports car races. The D1 Lola B2K car will be powered by a high performance diesel engine modified to run on a mix of regular diesel and biodiesel produced from vegetable oils. The objective is to test the performance, fuel efficiency and emissions produced by different biodiesel blends. The D1 car and engine are being developed for Le Mans Prototype racing by groupBio, a UK-based racing team.
