A method for controlling a motor vehicle braking system

Method in which a control or regulation is carried out of a motor vehicle brake system, comprising that the friction brakes on the wheels at least one axis, said braking pressure generating means for the wheels of at least one axle is in direct operative connection to the brake pedal, and at least one electric machine is operatively connected to at least one axis that can be used under application of an electro-regenerative brake torque for the conversion of kinetic energy into electrical energy, to increase the efficiency of the recuperation is an increase in the regenerative deceleration even with unchanged brake pedal position and / or brake pedal force and vehicle braking system controlled by an inventive method or is regulated.
