Andy_Bangle Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 After months of anticipation, the MERCEDES AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team exclusively reveals the very first clip of Formula One 2014 in action, as our F1 W 05 car makes its inaugural run at the Silverstone circuit. My Cooper S sounds better than that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patently Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 My Caterham was louder last time it was at Silverstone. Mind you, it was only running on three cylinders and was busy destroying the cat and silencer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 Oh, a bit dreary. But right at the end it starts to sound better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachel Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 That probably has the nicest front end of all so far (but RBR have yet to reveal...). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mook Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 I think they call it pushing the boundaries of what the car can do. Old Schumacher used to be quite good at that - but didn't always go off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimdiesel Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Still better than Red Bull who cannot get the RB10 started. Christian Horner has been up and down the pit lane asking if anyone has some jump leads he can borrow.

Andy_Bangle Posted January 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 Front wing failure aparently. Apparently?

Andy_Bangle Posted January 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 Yes, a similar system to what Grosjean and yourself use - "if you see another car, you are going to crash" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patently Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 Yes, a similar system to what Grosjean and yourself use - "if you see another car, you are going to crash" Watch the first lap of this one. 8 places taken in one lap, all at close quarters, no contact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarMad Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Yeah looks good, they still aren't giving the car full beans but it sounds nice and smooth and its certainly a nice way to see an F1 car in action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
