OK interesting point. When I play the video using ear buds on my phone I can hear the "honda" burbling, but the burbling is not so apparent on my PC stereo speakers. I think others might have to adjust their sound equalizer. I am hearing the engine burbling right through the entire lap and whole lot of burbbling in the brake zones like the Honda.siskue2005 wrote: βSat Nov 30, 2019 6:01 pmCould it be due to where they place the microphone? could that have an impact?PlatinumZealot wrote: βSat Nov 30, 2019 5:38 pmThe engine sound is definitely different!

I am hearing at strongly like the honda with these sound settings. Never heard it this strongly before! Not sure if there was some software changes from Merc? Listening on my galaxy s10 with tuned ear buds. I will try other onboards from earlier races.
nope, was just a spec 3digitalrurouni wrote: βMon Dec 02, 2019 4:46 pmWasn't Mercedes supposedly testing a spec 4 PU in FP1? But something went wrong and they had to revert?
There was one live-ticker writing that some teams in the paddock claimed Bottas' Mercedes was running a 2020 spec test engine with 2 tenths a lap advantage.
ted kravitz mentioned something on air during one of the sessions this weekend, and i assume a lot of other people just copied or paraphrased what he said.
