Two-stroke engines & eco-fuel: F1 aims to be greener than Formula E by Dominic Tobin on 10th January 2020 Formula 1's plan for green and noisy engines: two-stroke hybrids, running on synthetic fuel Photo: Motorsport Images Formula 1 is looking to introduce two-stroke engines that run on eco-fuel by the middle of the decade, as it develops plans to become carbon neutral. The proposal is said to make the sport greener than electric racing series, such as Formula E, while still using internal combustion engines — with improved sound. Current F1 hybrid engines will be replaced by a new specification of power unit from 2025 or 2026. It will play a significant role in Formula 1’s project to become carbon neutral in 2030. "I’m very keen on it being a two-stroke,” said Pat Symonds, chief technical officer of Formula 1, at the Motorsport Industry Association’s energy-efficient motorsport conference. "Much more efficient, great sound from the exhaust and a lot of the problems with the old two strokes are just not relevant any more."

As well as the cars, this e-fuel could power the planes that carry the cars and equipment to races, making a big dent in the sport’s carbon footprint. Research presented at the conference showed that electric racing cars could be responsible for twice the level of carbon emissions as hybrid racing cars, because of the amount produced when building the batteries. "We need to look at what our future power units will look like," said Symonds. "At F1 this is what we are engaged in at the moment." Symonds has started work on new engine regulations Photo: Motorsport Images He said that the sport’s pledge to continue with the current engines until 2025 gave it the time to "make sure that the next step is a really good one". "It might be that the next power unit we produce is the last one we do with liquid hydrocarbons," he said. "I think there’s a very high chance that there might still be an internal combustion engine but maybe it’s running on hydrogen. "I certainly think that the internal combustion engine has a long future and I think it has a future that’s longer than a lot of politicians realise because politicians are hanging everything on electric vehicles. "There’s nothing wrong with electric vehicles but there are reasons why they are not the solution for everyone." Symonds said that he is currently visiting universities carrying out engine research to inform the new regulations. He told the conference that he was struck by the amount of research going into two-stroke engines, which are better-known for their smoky and noisy performance in lawmowers, rather than their potential at the pinnacle of motor sport. "It’s reasonably obvious that if you are going to pump that piston up and down, you might as well get work out of it every time the piston comes down rather than every other time the piston comes down," he said. "The opposed piston engine is very much coming back and already in road car form at around 50 per cent efficiency. "Direct injection, pressure charging, and new ignition systems have all allowed new forms of two-stroke engines to be very efficient and very emission-friendly. I think there’s a good future for them." Engine development could follow the same process as the new rules for 2021 Photo: Motorsport Images Symonds is looking to set up a working group to develop the specification for the next F1 engine, mirroring the way that the 2021 chassis rules were drawn up. Teams would be encouraged to work collaboratively, as the design would be more prescriptive in an effort to keep a lid on costs. Symonds says that synthetic fuel would be tailored to the engine, using an optimum blend of hydrocarbons, to improve efficiency and performance, while reducing particulate emissions. The fuel would allow the engine to run with a higher compression ratio, improving efficiency by up to 2.4 per cent. Before then, the sport is looking to introduce e-fuels that can be used in current engines as production capacity increases. "As soon as there is enough around we should be doing it and we’re not that far away from what we need," said Symonds.

Pogledao sam juče Ford v Ferrari. Porodični film sa dosta patetike i podilaženja gledateljstvu, ali i kritike na račun nekoliko ključnih ljudi.

Navijam za prvi hibrid na Dakaru - Rendžin kamion sa holandskom privatnom postavom. Prvi dan problemi pa su završili kao 42., danas 5. Nekoliko privatnih posada sa različitim Rendžinim kamionima dolazi iz Holandije. Sve običan normalan svet, jedan je trgovac polovnim kamionima, drugi je vatrogasac(juče su bili 4.), treći drži tri pumpe, a Huzik sa ovim hibridom otpad.

Ghosn kidnuo iz Japanskog zatvora za Liban. Ovo je filmska priča!!! Epska borba japanski fašizam v liberalni kapitalizam

Sve najbolje ljudi!!🎇

Gordon Murray Pulled Apart His Personal Alpine A110 To See Why It’s So Good Gordon Murray, the creative genius behind the iconic McLaren F1, wasn’t planning on benchmarking another car against the upcoming T.50 hypercar, but that changed when he had his personal Alpine A110 delivered to him. Talking to Car Throttle, Murray confessed that he would originally use the 30,000 miles he’s done in a McLaren F1 as a point of reference for the development of the T.50 hypercar, which he labels the F1’s spiritual successor. But then his Alpine A110 arrived and Murray felt more than impressed with the qualities of the French mid-engined sports car. “A year ago I bought an Alpine A110, and it has the best ride and handling compromise of anything I’ve driven since the Lotus Evora, which was top of my list before this,” Murray said. “When you analyse that car [the A110] – and we did, we pulled mine apart for two months, we benchmarked it – that car’s got nothing trick on it. It just does the basics really well.” That’s quite the praise for any car, especially if it comes from the man responsible for arguably the greatest supercar ever created. Murray’s Alpine has since apparently been put back together as he continues referring to it as his daily driver, together with a current Suzuki Jimny. This isn’t the first time Murray used a personal car as a benchmark. In the past, he owned a Honda NSX for more than six years, which was used as a benchmark against the McLaren F1. The thinking was similar with the A110; Murray was so impressed by the Honda’s ride and handling, he pitched against the much more powerful McLaren in order to ensure the latter had the handling characteristics he was aiming for.

Glupost! Svi sportovi su ogromni zagađivači okoline. Sportista troši ogromnu količinu energije - hrane bez nekog naročitog "smisla". Proizvodnja hrane podrazumeva ogromnu potrošnju fosilnih goriva, ruda za mehanizaciju, oduzima prostor šumama... da bi neko skakao, trčao, bio brži, jači.. Trolčina..

Mclaren se lepo približio top3 timovima koji vode trku u razvoju do kraja sezone. Što kaže Sainz blizu su prošlogodišnjem vremenu sa pp-a. Svaka čast Papaje

Ovo nam je najvažniji čovek kojeg je Cyril mogao da dovede od povratka cele ekipe. Važniji od Rićija

O jes bejbi Skuplja se jako lepa ekipa ljudi. Nadam se da nam neće drpiti Danijel Avokada

Pat Fry izgleda dolazi u Rendžu.

Bur/Afrikaner, dobro poznata faca u Enstonu nasledio je legendarnog Tosoa. Allison ga vodi sa sobom u Ferrari. Sklon eksperimentu poput R29 i R31(sa onim ludim izduvom napred). Promena u timu je napravljena tamo gde su trenutni rezultati pokazivali da je najpotrebnija. Dirk je veliko pojačanje i ovakvi likovi se uglavnom ne potpisuju pred izlazak iz sporta.

U Rendži opet promena na vrhu sklonjen je i poslednji Ghosnov čovek Thierry Bollore dosadašnji CEO. Privremeno je postavljena Clotilde Delbos dosadašnji finansijski direktor Ceo program oko F1 dolazi pod lupu...

Propevao mamicu mu...

Diego Maradona Režirao Asif Kapadia. Odličan!

Francuska štampa piše da je Campos zainteresovan za ulazak u F1 2021. Moguća saradnja sa Rendžom poput Haas- Ferrari

Biće mi baš žao jbg. Nadam se da će i pouzdanost motora da dođe sledeće godine pa da se raziđemo u nekom veselju

Pu jbm ti osećam se kao da mi je cura dala dvojku😅
