Was expecting it to be a little more sophisticated than just a plain funnel.

Sometimes to easiest solution is the best solution. Can't wait to hear the increase in volume, the noise from the engines is phenomenal but we need more volume.

Well, it doesn't look any more ridiculous than the nose on some of the other cars.

or the FIA could change the rule so that to allow the megaphone to be placed in such a way that it wont interfere with the monkey seat ?

It gets uglier... That's exactly what F1 needs. Mocking.

In theory, though, it should be louder. Niki L. claims it's twice better. Nicola Pohl from Bild, and she's onsite, is on the opposite side. So far.

Looks weird:

It looks like someone was changing the oil and forgot to take the funnel out.

The regulations would need change anyhow. As that exhaust is not legal.

Anyone at the track have an videos of it for sound? I don't care so much what it looks like, the whole point of the thing is if it sounds right!
