Sounds even better from the Toro Rosso.
Check this out guys and gals! The sound of a finely tuned Gibson X-plorer guitar hitting the frequencies of 2014 V6 engines for a lap around Monza!
I like it. Lower-pitch, guttural, certainly not as bad as the naysayers were predicting, in my view.
The annoying thing is, take a look at the comments on Youtube and there’s a ot of people complaining about the V6 as if they’ve never watched a race from the ’80s (i.e. Silverstone 1987) – as I think that this year’s engines sound quite a bit like those.
In my view, hearing the sound of those old turbo engines live in a race with decent definition is the biggest improvement F1’s seen so far in the decade.
