Concept power units from 2030

I think it's better not having any valves.

Freevalve??

Not familiar with that. But there's two stroke, or rotary. (Others?)

It is a technology from Koenigsegg: https://www.freevalve.com/

That was once the proposal to switch to two-stroke engines. Didn’t they also talk about an engine with opposed pistons? This seems heavy to me because you would then need two crankshafts.

It actually starts at 46:05.

But what do you think of their opinions? Should motorsport indeed become more technological?

Personally, I think so, but I wouldn’t tie all these innovations to one motorsport. By this, I mean that something like torque vectoring seems more suited for rallying, while active aero is coming to F1 soon. And perhaps later we could even add active suspension there as well.

What do you think?
