I didn't know there was going to be an energy recovery system or ERS on the turbo, I thought the turbo was an ERS, well it is so they are going to bolt an ERS to an ERS.

These engines will be governed by two different fuel restrictions: a maximum fuel-flow rate of 100kg an hour; and a maximum of 100kg of fuel to be used through a race.
That makes it flat out for only 1 hour. Some races are nearer 2 hours. So 1/2 fuel for these?

Hehe  Seriously looking forward to next years season, who knows, someone might actually make a better car than Adrian Newey, these new rules are going to shack it up for sure.

I saw that, seems a bit daft to me, I see why they dreamed it up just to try to inject a bit of life into the end of the season but I don't really thought through that one.

I'm not for the double points on the last race either, Isn't F1 about reliability over the whole season ?
I don't know, it seems to be a ploy to keep it interesting down to the last race and nothing more.
