Renault commit to F1 Kers system

Renault have become the first team to say they will definitely use their new energy storage and power boost system (Kers) at the year's first race.

The technology stores energy that would have been wasted while braking and allows drivers a boost of an extra 80bhp for seven seconds each lap.

BMW were the first to say theirs was ready - but did not say whether they would use it in Australia on 29 March.

The systems, similar to those in hybrid road cars, are optional in 2009.

The systems will give teams that use them an advantage when it comes to overtaking due to the extra power available.

But because of the weight of the Kers and the difficulty of packaging it brings compromises.

McLaren and Ferrari have also not said whether they will use Kers in Australia.

Williams, Toyota, Red Bull, Toro Rosso, Force India and Brawn GP will definitely not use it.

Brawn, recent pace-setters in pre-season testing, would have to fundamentally redesign their car to fit a Kers system - which they are unlikely to do.

BMW team boss Mario Theissen said their Kers was "race-ready" but added: "Now it is just a matter of weighing the pros and cons."

BMW will decide whether to fit Kers to their cars in Melbourne, Australia, where practice starts on 27 March, after evaluating a complex set of parameters determining whether it will give them an overall performance advantage.

"On the positive side, the drivers would have an extra 82 horsepower at their disposal for 6.6 seconds per lap," said Theissen.

"However, the system adds weight to the car and this has an impact on the car's weight distribution and tyre wear.

"We will make a decision on a driver-by-driver, circuit-by-circuit basis."

Kers could also be a bigger disadvantage for taller, heavier drivers such as BMW's Robert Kubica in comparison to their smaller, lighter rivals, such as the Pole's team-mate Nick Heidfeld.

Theissen stated: "The minimum weight of 605kg stipulated for the cars in the regulations includes the driver.

"The difference between the actual weight and minimum weight is levelled out by positioning ballast around the car to optimum effect.

"Traditionally, this means that a heavier driver has been at a disadvantage as he has had less ballast to balance out the car. Using the Kers will further reduce - by the weight of the system - the amount of ballast available.

"In order to prevent F1 from becoming a jockeys' competition, we are pushing for an increase of the minimum weight in the future."

Kers is not mandatory this season but it has been introduced as an option to try to introduce sustainability to F1 and in an attempt to accelerate the development of such systems in road cars.

BMW is one of the road-car manufacturers that already employs such systems in its range and they have been F1's most enthusiastic advocates of the system.

BMW vetoed attempts by other teams to delay the introduction of Kers by at least a year because of the cost of developing it in a global recession.

Theissen told BBC Sport that the first fruits of BMW's work on Kers in F1 would be seen in its road cars as early as next year.

He said developing Kers for F1 had been a "huge challenge".

He added: "When I look back at how far we have come in such a short space of time, it really is very impressive. Here, Formula 1 has taken on the role of technology accelerator for series production cars of the future."

The F1 team of Toyota, which is the market leader in so-called "hybrid" road cars using similar systems, have already stated that they will not be using Kers at the start of the season.

The new Brawn team, which has set the pace in pre-season testing since confirming its survival less than two weeks ago, has no plans to use Kers in 2009.

Briatore concerned by budget rule

Renault managing director Flavio Briatore has expressed concern at new rule changes intended to limit spending by Formula 1 teams.

From 2010 there will be an optional budget cap of £30m, with teams within the cap allowed more technical freedom.

But Briatore believes the budget should not be a priority, saying: "F1 should have the same car, the same rules, then the budget can be discussed.

"We need stability, the changes are a bit of a shock."

If teams choose to set their own budget they will have to operate within more restrictive technical rules and therefore theoretically have a slower car.
The budget cap is an attempt to make F1 more accessible to new teams and the new rules, approved by the World Motor Sport Council of governing body the FIA, could reduce some teams' spending by 90%.

But Briatore claimed that cutting costs in Formula 1 is a complicated business.

"This will need us to really sit together (with the FIA) to understand because the team already did a big job to try and reduce the cost," he told the BBC.

"Formula 1 is very complicated, you try reducing the cost and instead of reducing it the cost goes up.

"The financial crisis makes everyone worried and we need Formula 1 to be more efficient but sometimes we are not happy with the sentences that are imposed."

Briatore backed the job Renault and other teams have already done to cut back on spending but admitted large scale changes will take time.

"The teams have already done an incredible job for 2009 and 2010. We will do everything possible for 2011 and 2012 but it is not possible to change the world in one week."

The F1 teams association (Fota) expressed "disappointment and concern" at the financial changes.

However, Briatore reacted more favourably towards changes to the scoring system which will see the driver with most wins crowned 2009 champion.

"I don't have any problem regarding the new scoring system. I think it's an extra motivation for a driver to do their best, which is winning.

"Formula One is all about winning and overtaking and, if this is extra motivation, I believe we are going the right way," he said.

Hamilton hits out at rule changes

By Andrew Benson
World champion Lewis Hamilton has criticised proposed changes unveiled by Formula 1 organisers this week.

Governing body the FIA wants the world title go to the driver with most wins - a plan it has now shelved - and to see huge cost cuts in 2010.

"It's a shame what's happening to F1," said McLaren driver Hamilton.

"It's hard to believe these recent decisions will improve things for the trackside spectators and TV viewers, who should always be our priority."

Hamilton was speaking before a protest by the F1 teams association (Fota) prompted the FIA to defer the introduction of its 'winner takes all' system.

He said the FIA should pay more heed to the wishes of the teams, who for the first time in F1's history are presenting a united front in trying to improve the sport.

The FIA's vision for the future of F1 is at odds with that of the teams.
Hamilton, speaking in a statement issued by McLaren, added: "Whatever the points system, I know that all F1 drivers will always race our hearts out.

"For the first time in recent years we have the teams, drivers, sponsors and fans all working together for the good of our sport - now we just need the governing bodies to listen to us and help us.

"F1 is the pinnacle of motorsport and that's what we all love about it; we should all be working together to maintain that."

BBC Sport understands Hamilton's remarks are aimed at the decision to impose an optional £30m budget cap in 2010 as much as at any change to the points system.

The 24-year-old would have lost last year's world title if a wins-based system had been in place as Ferrari driver Felipe Massa won one more race.

The budget-cap idea for 2010 was proposed by FIA president Max Mosley and approved by his organisation's world council on Tuesday.

Teams can choose to operate under the budget cap, but have more technical freedom to develop their cars and engines.

Alternatively, they can continue to spend what they want but operate under this year's more restrictive regulations.

Fota expressed "disappointment and concern" with the financial changes.

Fota is implacably opposed to the £30m budget cap.

The teams are committed to budget cuts, which they accept are necessary because of the global financial crisis.

They have already promised to impose its own 50% cut for 2010, bringing the budget of a competitive team down to about £140-150m - a reduction it considers to be sufficient.

They want F1 to continue to limit costs; to improve the spectacle for the TV audience and spectators, to develop new environmental initiatives; to increase the transfer of those technologies to road cars and to maintain and improve safety.

Because of the complexity involved, the teams are particularly concerned by Mosley's suggestion that the FIA would alter the rules governing the cost-capped cars to ensure they remain competitive with the ones operating with bigger budgets.

"We will make sure these advantages [of a bigger budget] do no more than balance the disadvantages the cost-capped teams will have because of their very restricted budgets," Mosley said in a statement.

"We will balance the median performances by adjusting the cost-capped cars should this prove necessary."

Mosley insists that his proposals do not hinder technical innovation.
"These rules will encourage clever engineering - success will come to the teams with the best ideas, not only the teams with the most money," he said.
