The McLaren cars look incredible honestly. Love the silver and black Mobil 1 livery. Many of the cars look great this year.
 
I wonder if it would be possible for television channels to put up the audio a bit, compared to the speech of the commentators. Maybe that would help because it's hard to hear the engines over here on Spanish TV.
Bad audio mixing on that channel, I think. Pretty well balanced here.
 
Man these cars look excellent. They remind me of the '80s/'90s cars again. Low, sleek, and less scaffolding.
As long as you're not looking at the front that is.
 
Why's there a bloody whistle every time the limiter's on?

That's always there in FIA events, it's the marshalls signalling that a car's entering the pitlane. You just never heard it in F1. Or anything much at all :D

EDIT: Rally marshalls do it too as a car enters a section.
 
Ricciardo v Magnusson!...

the front wings are a bit ludicrous
 
I think the frequency of the engines has changed. The intensity isn't too low, but the frequency no longer clashes with commentator voices.


I think frequency is about 800 Hz lower. Makes it a unique frequency.
 
I may not be the most objective when it comes to Magnussen. But I am very impressed by the way he is able to keep his cool! Go Mini Mag GO!
 
Mighty impressive of Magnussen to maintain a podium spot for much of the race! The McLaren's miles more competitive this year. Fingers crossed both cars make it to the end.
 
I love the sounds. The cars smell like Tamiya RC10's. I was between turns 13 & 14. Boring crowd. No screen and only the speaker in front. But real close to the track. Next year I'm back to GPAdvantage Granstand and Corporate boxes.

I recommend everyone go to a 2014 F1 race wherever you can.
 
Does anyone know if F1 is air-cooled or water/liquid-cooled?
 
Bye Grosjean.
 
Grosjean out now as well.
 
And there's the other Renault out...
