Re: Goodbye 18k RPM v8's: F1 is Officially going Turbo 4-banger!
And also dropping to a 12,000 RPM rev limit. I'll miss the sound more than anything.
But while dropping engine size and output, they are also adding in hybrid systems or as they call them KERS, Kinetic Energy Recover Systems. So overall, speed should be similar.
And yes Febo, there is no belt or chain. As the picture shows they used magical gears to drive the cam. It's less common but out there.
