Lauda: We can not just turn up the volume
"The debate is absurd"
Niki Lauda, one of the directors F1 team Mercedes says the debate about the sound of the new V6 turbo engines absurd. After the first race of the season former pilot admitted that the sound of the 22 cars on the first turn, it is disappointing. Williams technical director Pat Symonds agreed: "For me the start was the most exciting moment of the race - when drivers forcing engines. Overall not complain about the sound, but the start in Melbourne was really kind of quiet." Lauda is clear that nothing can be done about it. "The debate over the engine noise is ridiculous - now can not be changed. This decision was taken by all five years ago, so we put turbochargers. They sound different, and kids know it. If you remove the turbo will no hybrid engine. Just We have to get used to the sound. "
