Following the agreement between GPMA and FIA, the technical regulations
governing Formula One will undergo significant change over the next five
years and beyond. The objectives will be to promote research relevant to
the motor industry (and society in general), to eliminate developments
which do not meet these criteria, to reduce costs while improving cost
effectiveness and to keep, and augment, the image and excitement of
Formula One as the worldĄŻs leading motor sport category.The following is
an agenda for the next five years. A number of these points, particularly
from 2010 onwards, will require careful examination with GPMA and
detailed input from car industry experts. 2007
  *  Regulations are already published
  (existing 2.4 litre engine remains frozen) 2008 *  Regulations as
    published but possible elimination of aerodynamic appendices (barge
    boards, winglets, chimneys, etc) forward of rear wheel centreline and
    behind front wheel centreline (subject to unanimous agreement of
    competing teams)
  *  Possible sporting regulations to restrict the use of wind tunnels
    and/or models for use in wind tunnels and/or test rigs (subject to
    the consent of a majority of competing teams)
  (existing 2.4 litre engine remains frozen) 2009 *  Energy recovery and
    re-use from braking
  *  Reduction of 50% of downforce
  Aerodynamic and other changes to facilitate overtaking
  Existing 2.4 litre engine remains frozen or, possibly, a four-race
  drive train (engine and transmission) 2010 *  A proportion of waste
    heat recovered and used to propel the car
  *  A proportion of waste energy from exhaust gases recovered and used
    to propel the car
  *  Wholly or partially standardised aerodynamics (or, possibly, new
    rules to encourage road-relevant research into aerodynamics)
  (existing 2.4 litre engine remains frozen, or, if applicable, four-race
  drive train remains frozen) 2011 *  Perhaps a new four-race engine
    including
  - high-efficiency turbocharging
  - fuel (energy) flow limits
  - direct injection
  - downsizing so as to ensure very high (15000+) rpm
  - bio fuels (possible freedom to use any bio fuel, with a limited
  maximum energy flow rate rather than a maximum fuel flow rate) * 
    Perhaps a new approach to the chassis with
  - further reductions in downforce
  - greater emphasis on cornering performance and handling by means of
  chassis, suspension, and brake management
  - complete freedom to use electronics to make the car more
  energy-efficient (drive train, etc, management)
  - possibly also free up driver-aid electronics *  Materials -
    limitations on materials to bring them more into line with those used
    in road cars
  *  Other road-relevant technologies
  2012 *  New engine as above
  - It is proposed that the foregoing should be a basis for discussion.
  There may be other interesting and important technologies as well as
  areas of research which are not mentioned.Everything will be on the
  principle that new technologies, or rather the relevant devices, shall
  be freely available for sale to any team which wants them at an easily
  affordable price.The FIA Senate has been mandated to finalise its
  regulation changes to the 2009 FIA Formula One World Championship,
  following a meeting on 19 December 2006. These will be voted on before
  31 December 2006, in order for them to be incorporated into that
  championship.

se capisco bene, via alettoni e cazzate varie e si alla elettronica tipo
auto stradali come ABS ESP ecc.?
