This push-to-pass button has been used in CART or Indy racing previously. I always preferred F1´s philosophy, if one appeared to be faster it could be taken down to the driver and not some fancy electronics. That KERS system is pathetic if it comes down to ecological attitude - F1 racing has always been the very opposite of economical and ecological thinking. Since their engines are very, very efficient in relation to output one could easily find other solutions to improve on that field, e.g. decrease the capacity of the tank. I would also welcome the use of materials that could make it into serial production, e.g. mandatory use of certain standardized materials or components.

The intended modifications, e.g. the KERS system or a unified engine, would not increase F1´s attractivity for me. Might switch to watching synchronized swimming then... Smiley
