Buzzin’ Corner
Sebastian Vettel is on a mission to raise awareness about biodiversity. We are in the middle of a mass extinction of species, and he wants to do something about it. For Sebastian, bees are a perfect ambassador for this mission.
Therefore, he has built several bee hotels at Turn 2 of the Japanese GP. To promote this, Formula 1 have painted the kerbs yellow and black. Additionally, he got all the drivers to paint the hotels themselves.

“[The bee is] the perfect ambassador for us around this project and idea to highlight the importance of biodiversity, because it stands not just for the bee but for all the other insects, so we see the bee as our ambassador. She will help us stress this very important message”, said Sebastian Vettel.
“It’s very exciting and a lot of work and passion went into the project… Hopefully this is just the beginning of an initiative and projects around the world… standing up for biodiversity.”
