I found this really interesting article in the BBC website. It talks about F1 technology applied to the car you drive. How? You may ask. Basically it says That F1 will use new type of engines that are smaller and more efficient. They will consume less fuel. The F1 manufacturers do this because of diminishing supplies of fossil fuels and stricter emissions regulations. These new engines will feature a reduction in fuel consumption of as much as 50% and combine modern turbocharging with energy regeneration and other innovative technologies.
All of these technologies will be applied by road-car manufacturers to make our cars more efficient, with less fuel consumption, less polluting gas emissions, and smaller engines. This new technology will be used from the year 2013.
The following is the link to the article:
