F1 teams approving new 2013 engine formula

F1 teams are approving a new engine formula for six year beginning in 2013. The production of the current 2.4 L V8 engine will remain frozen, is replaced thereafter by similarly powerful engines that use less fuel, emit less pollution and are affordable for the small teams.

5.5L V8 Twin Turbo EngineSpains El Mundo Deportivo newspaper said an in-principle agreement has been reached for a four cylinder, 1.5 litre engine system equipped with a twin turbo and direct injection. The new formula would reportedly also involve KERS.

The F1 has to develop something helpful for real driving conditions, then the best solution is for an engine that is turbocharged and GDI or gasoline direct injection said in a report by Ferrari CEO Amedeo Felisa at Beijing Motor Show.

Mercedes Norbert Haug agrees that smaller engines are likely for reasons of consumption and emissions, but warns that high technology needs to remain a crucial focus. If you fly from Europe to Japan on a 747, you would use more fuel than an entire F1 season.
