Oliver WhiteCan a Formula One car play music?
Well, this Renault is definitely playing Britain’s national anthem, God Save The Queen, whilst on show at the Goodwood Festival Of Speed. Presumably orchestrated using a computer to rev the engine at certain times to produce each pitch, it is quite interesting. Well, for about 30 seconds anyway.
Found via doctorvee.co.uk – many thanks.
actually i think it was a talented engineer with a joystick, the tune varied significantly each time he did it.
what doesn’t come across on the video is just how freakin’ loud that v10 is…escpecially under canvas.
Ah, from the horses mouth (so to speak – k attended Goodwood this year, I believe).
F1 cars are very loud indeed – just look at the audience in the video, they all have their fingers in their ears!
It’s certainly a neat trick, however it was done…
