Six NTT INDYCAR SERIES drivers lapped Indianapolis Motor Speedway’s historic oval this week in development of the sport’s latest technology. “We’re still finding the most efficient way to use it and where to use it,” Honda driver Herta said. It can change the balance of the race car, too, depending on how much (regeneration) there is. “Drivers will have a tool that they can use differently, and that will be something that will separate (them),” he said. “I’m hoping it’s going to be a way where, as a driver, you can be smarter than your competitor and do it better than your competitor,” he said. “(INDYCAR officials have) been working on this for some time. How that’s regulated on the track, how the drivers use it, how the engineers interface with it, how we go racing.”.
