At this point, I'd rather see a spec V-10 engine for all teams, that screams at 20,000 RPM than I would want to see what the manufacturers want. Screw them, they've ruined the sport with their "wet fart sounding" engines. Then, it'd all be just up to the teams to build the fastest chassis they can while staying within the rules box. That would bring back the sound, the competitiveness and be way more interesting. F1 made their biggest mistake when they decided to start traveling all around the world. The best tracks are the classic European ones and for some unknown reason (apparently), no one knows how to build a track anymore (I'm looking at you Tilke). F1 went to the hybrid V-6 cars to appease the zealots. The amount of jet fuel burned to get the teams, the cars and all the equipment around the world to all these new locations, dwarfs their old emissions levels, but no one seems to notice that. Stay in Europe, truck to races, bring back the V-10's that have essentially zero impact on the environment and watch your fans grow!

Removing the MGU-H will not change anything in regards to exhaust sound. It's simply a generator/motor connected to the shaft of the turbo and does not interfere with the exhaust, instead It's the exhaust turbine in the turbo that interferes with the exhaust and muffles the sound, and that's still going to be there in the new power units.

I can relate ! I was lucky and privileged enough to have been a marshal at the 1992 South African GP. During one of the practice sessions Nigel Mansell spun out, in this very car, at what was then Nashua corner. The car landed up facing the wrong direction with the back wheels in the gravel and the front wheels still on the track. His practice over as he stalled the car. Unlike today, there was no SC for such incidents, only yellow flags. Cutting the long story short, Mansell asked me to get into the car and steer it as it was being pulled in reverse by a recovery vehicle. All the while the other cars were still going around the track at virtually full speed. What was mind boggling and surreal was sitting in the car facing the other cars coming up towards me at ridiculous speeds and taking the corner 4 or 5 meters in front of me. I got a front row seat at eye level with the other drivers and witness the speed that these machines carry around corners, it's insane stuff, seems almost impossible. I will never forget that moment, the sight, the smell, the thunderous noise and the vibration I felt from the other cars while sitting in this legend of a car, with Mansell overseeing everything. So yes, every time I see that car I always feel nostalgic.

The removal of the MGU-H would do little to improve the sound I suspect? The MGU-H was driven off the shaft from the same turbine that spools the compressor so you still have the muffling egfect from the turbo in the 2026 engine. The only difference is that the wastegates will now spend more time open than they do currently where the keep them closed for the MGU-H to charge the battery. That's a big efficiency lost for the charging. I also not sure the combustion engines will be working harder to maintain the 1000bhp given the MGU-K is to be more powerful in 2026. The ICE will work harder in terms of fuel consumption but probably produces relatively less power than it currently does if the stick to 1000bhp

Turbo engines can sound good though. Just the MGU-H neuters even that. He described how the MGU-H makes power inaccurately. What it actually does is is turn the turbo into an electrical generator when at full boost and when it's not at full boost, it is kept spun up by the electrical motor inside the turbo to prevent turbo lag. Basically, the turbo never changes rpm and there isn't much need for big blow off valves that make turbos sound good. The 2026 regs will make turbos sound how they should again, and will have the added benefit of being harder for the drivers to go as fast as easily.
@ChefofWar33 Жыл бұрын
Also, the way the MGU-H works is inherently why no road car will ever need it. It's only effective when under full throttle at full boost, and that isn't what a road car is designed to do, nor will it be legal. Plus the added benefit of no turbo lag is unnecessary in a road car, because throttle response simply isn't what a efficient road car needs to have. That's only for racing purposes.

Audi and porsche both worked with garrett in the early 2000s to spearhead the development of the e-turbo for use in lemans. It's all politics. Ferrari has used garrett since 2014 as their turbo supplier in f1 and much of the work on the audi porsche projects went into the development of that turbo. An f1 engine program is very expensive, mgu-h or not. Anyone complaining about the mgu-h just doesn't want to play ball. The tech drastically improves the efficiency of the engine and is one of the few areas f1 can actually have a trickle down technology. Moving away from mgu-h tech is stupid.

For various reasons, V6's (and inline3's) inherently produce a less pleasant sound than other configurations. For a 90 degree, direct injected, turbocharged V6 to sound pleasant, it has to to rev really high, in my personal opinion. And even so, it can struggle against an inline 4 or an inline 5. Manufacturers are using inline 4's. Ok then. Let's give them a low displacement, turbocharged, high revving inline 4. We can chase efficiency in other ways. A cap on peak BHP, limiting the capacity of the fuel tank even further, limiting the weight of the PU, etc. However, allow teams to flow as much fuel as they want, and rev the engines to higher RPM's.

I'm not sold on the idea that the 2026 rules will be louder or rev higher. Or the cars be more spectacular. The fuel flow is being reduced by roughly 1/3. That means roughly 1/3 less air flow. And the exhaust still goes through a turbine. The current PUs are ~800-850hp without the MGUK, the new ones will be about 550hp. Also, the current PUs do run at times with wastegates open, such as in overtaking mode. The fuel flow is being measured in MJ/h for 2026, but it still has the same constraints - the fuel flow varies in proportion with rpm to 10,500rpm, after which it is constant. So expect the engine operating range to be very similar to today's. The MGUK has been increased in size, but the battery remains the same capacity. Deployment per lap is unlimited, which means that it is constrained by how much can be recovered per lap. Braking won't be enough to get the maximum amount of recovery, so that means they will have to generate by lifting and coasting, or by burning fuel to drive the MGUK. Theoretically the PU will have a maximum power of 1,000hp, but it looks unlikely that would be achieved for very long during a lap, certainly not the same amount as the current PU. The 2026 PU is to be the same minimum weight as the current PU, so little weight saving, or at all, for the car. Which is one of the big problems with the current cars. The power levels and energy flows of the 2026 rules are very similar to mid 2010s LMP1. Very much designed around getting Porsche and Audi.

Only that the cars of that era did not. Current F1 cars don't even need traction control. There is so much mechanical and aero grip. In the dry at least. The main point is sure the engines are obviously more economica, efficient etc but they are not more exciting or impressive.in fact they have gone backwards. Almost No one cares about efficiency or fuel type etc. They are not actually any more powerful than they were almost 50years ago. That a staggering almost half a century.. Plus the cars are heavier now. So power to weight has gone down!! Safer sure. But better tracks would have sorted much of that. The reality of F1 cars of today is that they are not cutting edge they are not particularly high performance given what they should be capable of and this is due to regulations and weird management. Really what they should be is multiple thousands of horsepower no driver aids. Rwd. Then every race would be like a wet race. Drivers struggling, drifting spinning. Cars always visibly on the limit.

It is true that the SF90 has similar *peak* performance to an F1 car, but its engine, especially the hybrid components are not up to spec to the workload of a race car. Comparing fuel consumption of a road/race car is also something that requires a lot of guessing, at best. Having engines with 2000-3000+HP also compromises the sport itself, in the simplest form, they will be more expensive in the long run to produce/replace and I don't see Haas wanting to buy another engine every 2 weekends. Then, as you said from a safety POV the cars will need to be much much better and I don't see how a better track can stop a car going at 350+ km/h safely, unless the runoff is comparable to Paul Ricard's. This along with the fact that the engine will be much larger will increase the cars' size and weight even more and hurt the racing even more. That is before mentioning that there will be little to no interest from an engine manufacturer for the development of a powertrain that has little to no commercial value.

Poor baby… “they don’t sound like they did before the hybrid engines” -you The engine sound is irrelevant because the sound doesn’t win races. Get over it, princess…

"muh performance" "muh technology" "muh faster" "but we wanna hear the crowd!" Nah, stop this bulls*it. We wanna hear screaming V10s again, it's the F1 symbol, the masterclass of racing. If you can't feel the sound pressure in your full body when those screamers passing by and become 'deaf' for pure excitement because you're too sensible to PURE sound, F1 isn't for you. (I wanna those little cars with less front wing too [2005 yes] but this is a dream nowadays).

The V6s of today don’t sound bad at all, they’ve got their own character, they bellow and howl, the V8s and V10s roar and scream. It’s the nostalgia factor that makes people go starry-eyed at the V10s and V8s. I think they’ve struck a great balance here, they’ve succeeded in getting Audi on board, so we now have 5 power unit makers and even in recent years, the noise has improved from 2014. But if I had to pick one style of engine in the 2000s for noise alone, I’d have to say it’s the V8s. The V10 is too high-pitched screamy for me, not enough roar, the V8s have that perfect balance between a scream and a roar.

I have no nostalgia for v8s or v10s since I started watching during the 2016 season and I still think current V6s sound way worse than them. At least it's gotten better since the horrible 2014 engines

I actually prefer the sound of the current hybrid engine compared to the pre-hybrid era engines. Especially the low growl of the Honda. Also, I think it's kind of a pity that the mgu-h didn't turn out the way we hoped... Also, I fully agree with Brawn that just having a sustainable fuel in an old engine is not enough. Even if a fuel is sustainable, we still need efficiency because it equal mileage for consumer cars...

No we don't. Combustion engine cars are rapidly going away. This illusion that F1 has some amazing tech transfer to consumer cars need to end.

What would be really efficient would be not racing at all. Efficiency really isn't exciting.

I genuinely hope that sustainable fuel can come in to our normal cars. I just can't do electric vehicles. I have to have a 6 speed

What ever happens to F1 would greatly affect the future of ICE, F1 cannot exist without the sound of their engine, going electric would just make it Formula E
