Race mode (power-saving): 150kW, equivalent to 202.5bhp
Fanboost: up to 180kW
Maximum power will be available during practice and qualifying sessions. During races, power-saving mode will apply with the ‘Push-to-Pass’ system temporarily allowing maximum power for a limited time.
The amount of energy that can be delivered to the MGU by the RESS is limited to 30kwh. This will be permanently monitored by the FIA.
Performance
Acceleration: 0 – 100 km/h (0-62mph) in 3s – Estimated
Maximum speed: 225 km/h (FIA limited) – Estimated
Final performance figures are still to be verified.
Engine
MGU by McLaren
Maximum of two MGU’s allowed
MGU’s must be linked only to the rear axle
