Somehow I pity Kimi. If he had no bad luck he might as well have no luck at all.

Kimi inncident at Nuerburgring 2005 is the most pity i think,he get the same fate like Mika get at Barcelona 2001

need money for R&D, and A1 GP Association needs at least 5 season to get profit

I guess Kimi is just the F1 driver that Jeremy is looking for. You will know what I meant if you have read Top Gear July Edition

FIA releases 2011 proposals
Thursday 28th June 2007 QUOTE The FIA have released proposals for changes to technical regulations that could herald a revolution in Formula 1 racing. Following a meeting in Paris on Wednesday, the World Motorsport council released a statement regarding their plans to change technical specifications from the 2011 racing season. Some of the key changes proposed are a potential 50% reduction in downforce and the legalisation of movable aerodynamic devices, something that is prohibited under current regulations. It is hoped that these measures will encourage overtaking, as the leading car will exert far less physical influence on the car wishing to overtake. The reason behind the proposals are myriad, with cost-cutting, the possibilty of closer racing and improved environmental friendliness amongst the key considerations behind the FIA's thinking. There is also a perceived wish to make F1 technology more relevant to road car development. Significantly advanced aerodynamic devices such as plasma generation, MEMS turbulators and shape-morphing are all mooted in the document which, should the proposals be accepted, is set to signal a revolution in F1 technology. Here are some of the main proposals as outlined by the FIA: Engine efficiency To limit engine power by imposing a maximum energy flow rate. However, there will be few restrictions on the engine cycle, which can include turbo-charging and energy recovery. It is believed that this will lead to a gain of at least 20% in thermal efficiency. Drag To allow moving aerodynamic devices, which will reduce drag by over 50% and allow a 40% reduction in the power required to maintain current speeds. Energy recovery Energy will be recovered during braking and returned to both front and rear axles when accelerating. The amount of energy returned on each straight will be limited in order to prevent top speeds exceeding the safety criteria for the circuits. Fuel The total amount of fuel energy to be consumed during a race will be regulated, encouraging further overall efficiency. The CO2 emitted will be further reduced by the introduction of gasoline which is partly derived from sustainable, non-food bio sources but complies fully with pump fuel legislation. Overtaking Formula One cars currently find it very difficult to overtake because of the influence of the car in front. New aerodynamic rules will halve the downforce, and de-sensitise the car to the influence of the wake of the car ahead. It is also proposed to eliminate automatically the downforce deficit of the following car. Regulations The best estimates of what these measures will mean in terms of regulations are currently as follows: # 1.3-1.5 litre, 4-cylinder engine; # no RPM or boost limit; # energy flow rate to generate 300kW, including energy recovery from the exhaust; # 200kW brake energy recovery, front and rear axle; # 400-600kJ energy return per straight; # pump-legal bio-fuel; # FIA specified and supplied undertray and possibly other aerodynamic components; # 50% 2007 downforce; # adjustable, regulated wings and cooling; # automatic downforce adjustment when following another car; # lap times and top speeds maintained at 2009 levels; # over 50% reduction in fuel consumed. Costs A number of measures to constrain costs are proposed, including: # standardisation of components; # homologation of components and assemblies; # material restrictions; # extended life of assemblies; # restrictions on personnel and work at races; # restrictions on the use of certain facilities (eg wind tunnels). All these measures will be developed into detailed regulations in close collaboration with the teams and manufacturers. http://www.planet-f1.com This post has been edited by Raikkonen: Jun 28 2007, 06:28 PM |

Which translate more money spend by the teams getting the engine to work hard but reliable. Beats the purpose actually
