General F1 Discussion / Re: I'm loosing interest!
« Last post by Jericoke on April 15, 2024, 01:43:23 PM »I remember seeing video of Coulthard testing a Williams with a continuously variable transmission. It sounded very odd, since the revs never dropped for gear changes, and the FIA banned the transmission right away.
F1 cars have changed how they look over the years, why can't they change how they sound? Running on just gasoline/petrol powered internal combustion engines makes F1 look out of date. I'd like them to open the formula up to some genuine innovation. Tell the teams they've got 20 litres (random number) of fuel to go race distance, figure out the rest. 20 litres of gas/petrol? Biodiesel? Hydroden?
In the mean time, if people really are only going to F1 for the sound... there are far cheaper options to hear loud cars.
