hehe if it was solar power then i think i would be one of the quietest race and if it would be hydrogen powered then with all the oxigen pumped out of the car, it would be the freshes race! kekekke :D

Just imagine cars with electronic damping control. The suspension can automatically adjust rebound and compression.
Since Bernie does not want to give a certain amount of revenue to the car manufacturers. Its possible they will start their own series in 2008, whereby they can develop new technologies that can be applied to road cars.

Anyway, the new 2.5 litre V8 will produce about as much power as the first generation 3.0 litre V10. And the current 3.0 litre V10 already produces more power than the 3.5 litre V10 it replaced. This is the superlative rate at which F1 continues to improve.
Which is why I had a thought. If the world is really serious making green cars (electric, fuel cell, etc.) more feasible. All they need to jumpstart its evolution is by making Formula 1 teams race with such engines. If the FIA one day decides to ban engines that burn fossil fuel and impose the rule to run green engines, we could all be driving around in cars running on hydrogen in 10 years time, maybe even less.

The best source for energy is nuclear power. If F1 cars were to run nuclear power sooner or later on we all will be driving cars that are nuclear powered. The best part about it lasts longer than petrol, hydrogen, solar and electric.
