Button running KERS?

http://www.fia.com/en-GB/mediacentre...ial_report.pdf

The FIA Technical report for the Malaysian GP states that "The KERS control was checked for car numbers 06, 10 and 22"

Why check KERS control on a car that is not fitted with KERS?

I guess it is just the procedure - they are the top three. It should be checked, but it will be an easy check.

I suppose "Checking if Button's got a KERS Button" would get a bit confusing.


Check please!

I imagine it was just a check of the ECU, which of course supports KERS.

Maybe they were checking the potential of KERS

This thread has the potential to be a right KERS-fuffle.

But he definitely isn't running KERS,but there's talk of a 'flywheel' system for the future (if KERS has one that is).

A lot of people seem to want to put a KERS on KERS. Why?
