There has been a lot of debate around the sounds produced by the modern era F1 cars, and 2016 sees teams taking steps to increase the decibel levels that their power units are outputting. Regardless of new regulations, the sounds of the engines roaring into life after a long winter break is music to our ears.
What do you think? Are the power units sounding better than in 2015?
