Unlike in the 80's when engines suffered from massive turbo-lag, I imagine the power delivery from the new engines will be so linear, drivers will probably barely notice the existence of a turbo, unless they fit an after-marktet wastgegate from Halfords that makes a loud wooshing noise everytime they lift off to impress their mates, innit. It's all about making the engines more economical. Small capacity force induced engines are teh way to go, plus advancements by F1 in turbo technology could be used in mainstream car use as the manufacturers are also going down this engine route.

Not if you're Rene Arnoux: [video=youtube;khA67-r5lSQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khA67-r5lSQ[/video]
I presume you listened right to the end of the clip, AG? Fortunately Murray Walker â who was only doing his journalistic duty in repeating Arnoux's excuse of a sound-bite â was accompanied by someone who could present a more objective driver's perspective on the matter. It could not have been clearer!
James Hunt, Legend! Benson in his latest "Gossip" column for the Beeb shares a link from the fountain of all motorsport knowledge (The Hindustan Times) that McLaren will ditch Mercedes in favour of Honda.... Hmm, I'd like that to happen but I'm taking that news with a pinch of curry powder!
Prodrive are the latest bidders for the cosworth F1 engine. Maybe we could see an aston Martin Engine?

I'm really surprised that the audio the journalists were allowed to listen to hasn't become available. I would have been fascinated to hear it.
