I was just checking the engine designations for 2009 and I notice some manufacturers have incremented their engine model numbers whereas others haven't.
Mercedes, BMW and Toyota have incremented theirs, Ferrari and Renault haven't.
With the engine freeze, how can the engine model number be incremented anyway? Surely it's the identical engine to last year?
Except for Renault of course who curiously have kept the same designation.
Unless my 2009 data is incorrect.
