      I don't think it matters, If F1 drivers can race while listening and talking to their engineers, music, that you can block out in your head would do nothing.

    • @taher619
      @taher619 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Ric Rac Yeah but most in race communication occurs when the driver can afford to be slightly distracted like during straights or sections that aren't too difficult. You would have the mechanic talking to you whilst you were overtaking someone around a corner

      But you don't have to actively listen or pay attention to music, a proper driver can keep stuff like music, pain, heat and all sorts of things out of mind, it's called focusing on the task at hand.

      and regardless of the 'fleet' currently in use, you also mentioned it was a 'disused airfield', which obviously it isn't. Technically it can be used to cater for any aircraft up to say a 737 (depending on size of the runway), fleet aircraft or not.

      Simply put, the Merc is better. It was made to beat Porsches, so it's not just another GT car made by AMG, it's a bit more serious (or less serious, depending on how you look at it) than that.

    • @derbigpr500
      @derbigpr500 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      *****
      That's bullshit.
      458 Special is about 3 seconds faster per lap than a Nissan GTR Nismo from 2015 for example....and about 2 seconds than a 911 GT3. And that's a short 3,5km track. Go check out the EVO magazine test. Or you can check american tests...for example, on VIR the regular 458 is about 2 seconds per lap faster than a ZO6 or ZR1, I'm not sure, but it was the fastest road car they tested until a year ago. Fact is, Ferraris are hard to drive on the limit unless you know what you're doing.
      Another fact is, Ferrari is not making cars to post fast lap times. Faster lap times don't mean a better car. They tune their cars to be as enjoyable to drive as possible. There's a lot of psychology in the way they develop cars. Ferrari does it better than anyone else in the world, that's why they feel so good to drive. They will sometimes purposefully make a decision that makes the car slower, simply because it feels better. For example....slightly less torque can make the car feel more stable and more planted on the corner exists, so they will do it, instead of having more torque that will make the car twitchy, etc. My uncle works as an engineer in Ferrari, I'm an engineer as well, I understand how much effort goes into what they do.
