Theissen: No KERS in 2010
Mario Theissen has confirmed that Formula One will drop KERS at the end of the year after just one season with the device.
This year's Championship saw the introduction of the Kinetic Energy Recovery System, however, only four teams, including BMW, have actually used it. And although two of those four, including BMW, have axed the device, deciding that the power advantage it gives is not worth the extra weight the cars have to carry. For next year, though, none of the teams will be using KERS with Theissen confirming that the FOTA members have voted against it. "We have discussed the KERS issue within FOTA and we had a majority agreement not to use KERS next year," Theissen told Reuters. "We had supported KERS but we have committed to the agreement... so we will not run KERS and there was no FOTA member voting for KERS." The German, though, isn't willing to write KERS off as a bad mistake, insisting it has its uses. "I still think that KERS would have been very good, not just for BMW as a manufacturer but also for Formula One as a whole because it is a very credible piece of innovation relevant to future road cars which Formula One has pioneered and really pushed forward," he said. "We are using it, we have transferred it into road car projects already. All the guys who have done the Formula One system are working on road car projects now. So this really could have been a big story for Formula One." |
