It's not that loud after a few years of being around racecars or driving them like I do I lost 1/2 my hearing from racing asphalt circle track sprint cars and latemodels even with the noise cancelling earbuds that are custom molded so you can hear your spotter still let in tojch sound cuse the exhaust bouncing off the wall down the straights hurt it's ear piercing
Nowadays they're ruining everything I loved about F1. The cars all look like they were pressed from the same exact mold. (Just like Nascar! The FIA's got some nerve...) These cars all look so unique (I underatand that's mainly because they're all from different eras) I can actually tell a McLaren from a Ferarri!!!
