It just uses the brake kinetic force to build up enough power so you can use it as a "boost."

You can only use one "full tank of kinetic energy" per se per lap i believe, EJ correct me if im wrong.

Maybe one day it will be in regular cars, it helps with CO2 emissions as well.

Similar to the "push to pass" in IRL. KERS uses energy stored electrically to give back 82 bhp for 6 seconds each lap.

So when a faster non-KERS car goes to pass a KERS car, the driver of the KERS car simply presses the button to get their extra 80 hp and effectively blocks the faster car.

Simply stupid.
