You lucky dog! Fabulous pix, mate -- thanks for sharing them!

Regarding F1 noise, did you notice that everyone in the 2013 vid was wearing industrial hearing protection, while the fans in the 2014 vid were just enjoying a day at the track! It probably sounded BETTER with the quiet cars because you could listen to the race directly without risk of permanent hearing damage.

You can hear the turbo kicking in, the air boxes going mad, and what I've also noticed... the tires locking/squeaking before some of the corners.

New sounds indeed. Totally new to me. And I DON'T like it

I want the chainsaw wingggg wing wing sound back lol
