Renault and Ferrari want the energy recovery system like as soon as possible to see reintroduced, other teams are rather skeptical about but could be overcome, because the British company Flybrid has offered to supply to interested teams with a flywheel KERS to economic conditions.

/ / In the WTCC, there is new speculation about a replacement race for the canceled race in Mexico: How motorsport total.de reported , has series promoter Marcello Lotti, the routes of Qatar and Bahrain, and an unspecified price in China on the short list taken. Supposedly, the details should be discussed this weekend in Marrkesch, but so far no further news leaked outside.

It appears, given his lead in the series again, a bit odd, but the problems are probably not a sporting nature. Obviously one has lived a little apart, and Harvick see what goes somewhere else Sun High on his list are probably Stewart and ECR. Kahne has again is a car for 2012 (the # 5 for Hendrick), but in 2011 it still looks bleak. Here, too, thought about a solution at Stewart-Haas. There could then end up Mark Martin in 2012, when he not either docks at JR Motorsports. It is said to Junior for a long time that he would like to climb with his team in the league. The Silly Season is therefore already in full swing.
