Now even the gas guzzling speed crazy F-1 sector is concerned, head of Federation Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) Max Moseley, last week shared his plan to utilize hybrids in the future. For this earthshaking plan, an installation of 20 kilos of equipment to store energy produced while applying the brakes is necessary. Such energy stored, could again be used when the car accelerates.
Moseley shares:
This is quite clearly something that is and will be developed for the road and all the major manufacturers are working on different systems at this time. By allowing it in F1 we will be accelerating its introduction. We’d like to do that for 2009 but must sort out the detail of the regulation with the teams and manufacturers. This will be a technology that everyone can understand, the public can understand and it will be directly relevant to road cars and a technology for the future of road cars.
In order to popularize the technology, Moseley also plans to make the equipment for free, so that people can choose whether they want a hydraulic, inertia or electrical system, or some other technology or branch of those technologies.
