How would it be if the future of Formula One be a Batmobile-like creation? Wouldn�t that be something amazing? Yes, the forthcoming of Formula One might be a Batmobile-like creation called Delta Wing. It is being seriously considered as the model for a new Indycar formula starting in 2012.
Delta Wing is being supported by most Indycar teams, including the Chip Ganassi Racing squad of Britain’s reigning champion Dario Franchitti.
Speculation is widespread that if the car turns out to be a hit, it could be copied by Formula One.The super-modernized car, which has enclosed wheels and no aerodynamic adjuncts, will be capable of attaining 235mph at the Indianapolis 500.
It�s abridged drag and light weight means it will only require a small four-cylinder 300 horsepower engine to boost it to such speeds, making it leaner and greener than the existing conventional Indycars.
Yet, safety will be improved as the risk of cars getting in the air through interlocking wheels will be reduced.Overtaking should be easier as racers will not be ensnared by confusion caused by the wings of the car in front.
