New class for 2024 race
« on: July 16, 2018, 12:32:44 pm »
The ACO will introduce a class for hydrogen powered cars in 2024.Paul Ricard have started building a hydrogen production facility just north of the circuit to power all the service vehicles at the track. Is this the way foward?

Hurrah!

Stupid batteries are a mistake, to much pollution to produce and dispose of.

Fuel cells are the only sensible way forward.

Apparently BMW were one of the main instigators and think hydrogen is the future.

I thought they just had the joint contract to build the spec chassis, so it will look like every other Oreca then!
Of course I buy green cars, my Aston is green, my MGB is green, my Disco Sport is green,  oh, that's not what you meant by green?
