Thanks to Kjetil for sending me this little video clip of Olivier Panis testing the Toyota V8 at Monza on August 24th. This is the first time I’ve heard one of the new V8′s which will be run in F1 next year. It definitely sounds different but I can’t say if I like it better than the V10. I mean it doesn’t really matter because there will never be an F1 sound like that of the Ferrari V12!
In case you’ve been living under a rock, the FIA has changed the engine rules for next and we’re saying goodbye to the V10′s and hello to the V8′s.
