A snippet from race-car engineering.com on 'KERS'

'When the car brakes a proportion of the rotational force is captured by a electric motor / generator (MGU) mounted at one end of the engines crankshaft. This MGU converts the kinetic energy into electrical energy which is then stored in batteries. When the driver presses the boost button the electrical energy in the batteries powers the MGU - which puts an extra 85bhp into the engine. You can hear this happening on the onboard cameras as the engine note suddenly jumps up for a few seconds, especially coming out of corners.'
