The arrival of the new engines 1.6 Turbo formula 1 is not being a single delivery. Shortly after confirming the new regulations from various sectors of the great circus they were against. Bernie Ecclestone and Lucar Cordero di Montezomolo did not want to or hear from these small engines on the contrary, Renault almost coartaba their continuity in formula one on arrival.
All these struggles all they are getting is that the foundations of the new rules are delayed. If teams need a technical regulation clear with one year in advance, for the development of these characteristics, engine manufacturers still need more time. Time is running slowly and that could make that main actors, Cosworth, Ferrari and Mercedes-Benz, Renault, were so think twice before sticking squarely in the evolution of the new propeller.
So after these dimes and bickering, the FIA seems they have clear. Jean Todt said that almost surely rules engines from 2013 will have to be postponed. There will be no future for the new regulation without the consensus of the four manufacturers. At the moment, the first rumors about the possible coexistence of the 1.6 Turbo 4-cylinder and the current V8 are already there as well as the possibility of developing V6.
