| KERS | One of the major additions to the Formula One technology portfolio is the optional use of a Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS). KERS recovers the heat energy generated from braking and stores it for use as a boost of up to 80 horsepower for up to 6.67 seconds per lap. The driver has control over this and can operate the system via a boost button on the steering wheel. |
