RACER posted an interesting article of statistics on the
Porsche 919 Hybrid from this year’s Le Mans.
Of the assorted facts and figures, I thought this one was really eye-catching:
The Porsche 919 Hybrid recuperated and used 2.22 kWh (8 megajoule) per lap. If it was a powerplant, a family home could be supplied with electricity for three months.
In my book, endurance, sports car, and prototype racing, are becoming much more entertaining than today’s contrived F1 (their rules have crippled F1 to the point where it is a parody of its once proud pinnacle of motor sports self).
