New Zealand makes its long awaited return to the WRC this weekend with a history making feat in the offing as Kalle Rovanpera closes in on the title. Here's everything you need to know about RallyNZ:
#37 Lorenzo Bertelli/Simone Scattolin- M-Sport Ford World Rally Team - Puma Rally1This year represents the introduction of new Rally1 regulations designed to move the WRC into a much more sustainable future and to attract new manufacturers. They have resulted in Hyundai, Toyota and M-Sport Ford designing and building all-new cars around a new safer, steel spaceframe chassis.
Cars will be up 70kg heavier than their predecessors, this is mainly due to the addition of the hybrid system. In total, Rally1 machines will weigh in at approximately 1260kg. Trick centre differentials used to fine tune handling are now banned in favour of a simpler front and rear mechanical limited-slip differentials offering a fixed 50:50 toque split between the front and rear wheels. Suspension travel has been reduced to 270mm.How does the Rally1 hybrid system work?
Pilots will be required to regenerate 30 kilojoules of energy before another boost is granted that will be used the next time they touch the throttle pedal.
