Filed under: Hybrid, BMW, Honda, Renault The Kinetic Energy Recovery System will indeed be affixed to the powertrains of Formula 1 cars in 2009.

Qualifying Grand Prix Magyar Nagydij, Budapest, Hungary 2008

Changing track conditions, which prompted almost wholesale switching to Bridgestone s harder tyre in place of the super-soft option which had been the initial preference, made things tricky for competitors throughout Hungarian Grand Prix qualifying on Saturday. They didn t seem to trouble McLaren, however, who dominated the session which afterwards saw Toro Rosso s Sebastien Bourdais given a five-place grid penalty for impeding BMW Sauber s Nick Heidfeld in Q1 and Williams Kazuki Nakajima handed...

Angry lion Peugeot grille should have been brought out for Bastille Day, but alas. This thing parks on the street, and I'm fairly certain that it moves every once in a while; the license plates are current and I see it sometimes on the other side of Magazine. It's a Peugeot 505s, my guess is 1983-85, mostly on the odd US market headlights. Maybe diesel. (Note for my non-US readers, Peugeot hasn't sold a new car here since the early 90s, Citroen the 70s, and Renault the Renault Alliance bailout....

Commenter Of The Day: France Is Back Edition [Commenter Of The Day]

After a prolonged period of anti-French sentiment due partially to their lack of support of our adventures in Iraq and partially to them being, well... French, the country is back in a big way. Helped in small part by the election of US conservative-favorite Nicholas Sarkozy and in large part by our love of French Cars, people are seeing the country in a new light. Congress even dropped "Freedom Fries" from the menu, renaming the Belgian invention "French Fries" as God intended. And though a Fre...

Project Car Hell, Debacle Edition: Matra Murena or Alpine A310? [Project Car Hell]

Welcome to Project Car Hell, where you choose your eternity by selecting the project that's the coolest... and the most hellish! I really wanted to call today's matchup Édition Débâcle, but the heads of our beloved Server Hamsters tend to explode when they're forced to deal with weird furrin letters in our headlines, and headless hamsters don't run on wheels. Never mind the English-only hamsters, though, because we've got to choose between two equally impossible desirable French cars. I tell ...

Drive on, driver

It wasn't Thatcher, though it should have been, who said that anybody seen in a bus over the age of 30 should consider themselves a failure. Now, I consider myself a failure twice daily, but public transport has nothing to do with it. In fact, I enjoy being driven, in a taxi or a train, for the feeling of safety without responsibility. j4 used to own a runaround Renault and after proving how useful it could be to have a storage box on wheels, she encouraged me to learn to drive. A week ago, I fi...
