Formula One ( F1 )

1.6l four cyclinder engines from 2013?! wtf? They're going to sound like angry gnats. I get that it's indended to reflect a general trend for smaller more efficient road cars but really? is that what motorsport is supposed to be about? efficiency and thrift? I want 1000hp 3L V12 turbos back.

Yeah I hear you. I just read an article on this this morning. One thing they are worried about is how they are going to get that adrenalin thumping noise out a small in-line 4 turbo.
You want to see things like the Ferrari 712 Can-Am. 1mpg or something :)
