An unnamed team principal has criticised formula one’s so-called ‘green’ energy-recovery KERS technology.<\/p>\n
“It gives us a green look,” the boss is quoted as saying by Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung newspaper.<\/p>\n
KERS gives drivers a power ‘boost’ after collecting heat energy from braking and charging a battery.<\/p>\n
“In reality, KERS is used only for acceleration and forces up the (car’s) weight, so that in the end the fuel consumption is higher.<\/p>\n
“That’s not to mention the question of what happens to the batteries when they’re finished,” the unnamed F1 chief added.<\/p>\n
