                                  That was pretty cool. That whole electro-boost thing is cool too. Almost like an electric supercharger. HA.

                                      How the hell does that work though? Are they running an electric motor also, hybrid-style?

                                          Like a prius at 18,000 rpms. There was an article in motor trend about it a while back, they said something along the lines of the drive wheels have small electric motors that are fed by kinetic returns during braking, and may be activated at the touch of a button for an extra boost.

                                          F1 goes green and gets electric motors capable of 24,000 rpms. Sound hot, I must have it.

                                              Considering there are really only 3-4 teams that are competitive every year this will still do nothing.
