Re: IndyCar
IndyCar Will Go Hybrid in 2022
The series is delaying its new engine formula by a year, but will add new tech to the package.

Since 2012, IndyCar has used 2.2 liter turbocharged V6s from Honda and Chevrolet to power every car in the field. These engines
brought turbocharging back after a long absence, increased the power available with the push-to-pass system, and worked to make
the racing even better. But they're getting old.
While the series had previously announced a change to 2.4 liter V6s with a goal of at least 900 horsepower by 2021, the series is
now pushing that back a year and adding a new element to the formula: hybridization. This new formula for 2022 will now coincide
with the introduction of a new chassis, making that year transformational for the series.
