Cannabis has found its way into the auto racing industry! Recently, Italian automaker Romeo Ferraris announced its MIRA will use bodywork with hemp fiber. Romeo Ferraris is exploring new technologies to innovate mobility, and in this case is using hemp in their inaugural electric touring cars.
Massimo Bercella, CEO of Bercella Srl said: “We are proud to have played our part in the transition that will lead to a greener future, something that motorsport can no longer ignore in its role of laboratory of the highest level for the trends that will constitute the road mobility of tomorrow. Composites constitute our corporate expertise and seeing their change towards increasingly sustainable materials and processing techniques confirms us as pioneers for the new initiatives that make up our present and that we will have the opportunity to develop more in depth in the future.”
