“Do they sound like a blender? No, but they do not sound like classic F1 either...”
This year’s new sound has nothing to do with the ERS (Energy Recovery System) but rather the change from normally-aspirated V8 to turbo-V6.
The 30-seconds thing was last year, too; now the regs specify a maximum energy storage capacity.
I understand very well about the engine sound and the small lumps.
My post was very concise regarding electric vehicles and Ferrari.
I did not feel there was a need to add every frickin’ detail about the 2014 sporting regs.
