about 2.75kg of fuel weight. (barcelona track - shortish) a gallon of gasoline weighs around 3.1kg. So depending on the specific type of fuel they use around a gallon an average racing lap. Seems about right. Considering supercars do around 5 miles to the gallon (1 lap) racing. Although a f1 car is faster it may use a similar amount of fuel due to weight and friction issues. f1 cars cut through the air more easily. It will vary depending on circuit of course.
