    They use push to pass on the road and street courses where it is harder to pass normally. What it does is give an additional 60 HP when the button on the steering wheel is pushed. Each driver is given, I think, 120 seconds to use.

    In the past each push was for a set period of time no matter if they hold the button or push it multiple times. Now it is engaged for however long the button is held.

    They do this to increase the passing to hopefully make the race more exciting. In some cases, especially in F1, the guy who started on the pole will stay in front the entire race unless he screws up because of the limited passing zones on road and street courses.
