A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

The torro Rosso has the retarded ignition feature on it's Ferrari engine now. You could hear it and see it crystal clear in the practice sessions. It seems to be doing them some good.

Giogio Ascanelli comment on Formula1.com:

I think the team has done a good job and, first in Monza and now here, the car has made a step forward. That is not because of new developments, but rather that we have worked out how to run it better.

I like that guy.

Toro Rosso will use Ferrari engine + KERS next year:
Q. First of all a question to all the Team Principals about your engine deals for next year and also your engine usage this year. Are there any concerns about the eight engines coming up as we are near the end of the season. Franz?

Franz TOST:
Toro Rosso will continue the co-operation with Ferrari. We will run next year the engine as well as the KERS system from Ferrari.

What does the retarded engine feature do?

Keep air flowing when not on the throttle or something?
