Abstract
A hydraulic vehicle brake system, preferably a slip-controlled hydraulic vehicle brake system, includes two brake circuits to which wheel brakes of front wheels are attached. The brake system further includes an additional brake circuit, which is not attached to the main brake cylinder, but is provided with a hydraulic pump for power braking. Wheel brakes of vehicle wheels are attached to the additional brake circuit and are configured to be driven by an electric motor. The electric motor is operated as a generator during a braking operation to compensate for the braking moment generated in the additional brake circuit.
