Watching the American LeMan's race last weekend the commentators mentioned that E85, which many teams run for the Michelin Green (environment) points, makes less HP than gasoline so those teams are allowed consessions (lower weight, increased tank size, or others) to make up for the power sacrificed.
I'm guessing E85 runs cooler (like alcohol) than gasoline which may be advantageous in a high boost turbo application???
