The compounded systems are around 125psi FWI  pretty radical stuff but I will get shot if I talk much about it lol. |
So the compound system is more related to the KERS systems they are using rather than actually increasing input into the engine?
Eco friendly F1 is hugely gay.
That's like having electric drag cars. The whole point of it for the crowd is the speed and the noise, electric drag cars make no noise.
