The Sepang International Circuit is just round the bend – next weekend. But before you see gas-guzzlers craving to make big strides at the event, a hotel employee from the Pullman Putrajaya Lakeside Hotel shows how recycled carton boxes and used materials could be best utilized to create a F1 racing car replica.
eco friendly car made from recycled carton boxes
Khati Resan, the creator, worked for four weeks on his eco F1 car that measures 8 ft by 2 ft. He might have taken a cue from the UK-based Wilson Brothers – Oscar, Ben and Luke – who created an almost similar replica with recycled boxes a month back.
Patrick Sibourg, PPHL general manager, said…
Instead our eco-friendly F1 racing car is created to commemorate the 2010 Earth Hour and in conjunction with the F1 Petronas Malaysian Grand Prix.
So, don't you worry about emissions and all since the car won't be budging an inch while it's on display at the PPLH until April 10.
