Bernie hates the new V6's so has no incentive to make them sound better. As he controls FOM trackside mics we're stuck with the crappy sound quality.mith wrote:I have always thought that part of the problem with the sound of new V6s was that FIA was still using old mics on the track, adjusted to high pitches of V10s and V8s. That opinion came from comparing amateur videos from race days or testing and some filming days videos with TV broadcast and I never heard the engines in real life, so I might be wrong.Blackout wrote:Sounds very good if you ask me.Cuky wrote:yet another teaser, this time a short clip from filming day

I haven't heard them in person either, but I know someone who has who said that they sound more complex but are still loud - just not so loud that you can't manage without industrial ear protectors!!
