2014 Engines for Formula 1: Will We See More Blowouts Next Year?

When Mark Webber’s Korean Grand Prix ended in a fiery blaze, it at first appeared as if his Red Bull had suffered a rare engine blowout. The reason for the fire was, in fact, due to an oil leak that dripped onto the exhaust, but it did get me thinking whether we will see more engine failures in 2014 with the introduction of the 1.6-litre turbocharged V6 units.

When Romain Grosjean made a small mistake in the penultimate corner late in the Korean Grand Prix, teammate Kimi Raikkonen pounced like the opportunistic tiger he is to snatch second position from his grasp. Fair enough, you may say. Raikkonen has always been a racer and a great passer, and a leopard never changes its spots—or a tiger its stripes. But it was clear from the radio exchanges between...
