I read somewhere that FIA is enforcing a rev limit of 15,000 RPMs for the new turbo V6's, compared to 18,000 RPMs for the current V8's. I was hoping for a super-loud turbo spool whistle, but instead all I could hear was the V6 working overtime. :/
With Formula 1's transition to become more "environmentally aware" (yay, energy recovery! yay, KERS! /sarcasm), F1 fans will have to settle for a rather uninteresting soundtrack for (hopefully) more on-track action.

Heck, I've heard that in the near future, F1 engines are going to be down-graded into four-cylinder units.
With that said, can somebody please shoot those Greenpeace **************s!!!

i wouldn't be surprised if they decided to go with inline-four turbo powerplants at the rate that Formula 1 is adopting these "green" technologies.
it would only be a short time before fans and spectators can no longer differentiate Formula 1 and Formula E.
