There's a good reason why this sounds generic: the composer specialises in it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Tyler

Some highlights from his CV.
  • Constantine
  • The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift
  • Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem
  • Rambo [2008]
  • The Expendables
  • Battle: Los Angeles
  • Fast Five
  • The Expendables 2
  • The Expendables 3
  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
  • Furious 7
  • XXX: Return of Xander Cage
  • Power Rangers
  • The Fate of the Furious
  • The Mummy
Also:
  • Iron Man 3
  • Thor: The Dark World
  • Avengers: Age of Ultron
I personally think this is simply another example of Liberty not knowing what they're doing, but feeling they need to change things (that aren't broken). They don't have a finger on the pulse of this sport.
I like Brian Tyler because he did Assassin's Creed Black Flag awesome soundtrack, but this F1 theme is quite lame... except the part between 1;10 and 2:30 which I like. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNREuwdJCw0

Just saw it prior to fp3, and it's not bad at all with video and commentary overlay.

I REALLY hate that Fake F1 sounds, Every time i hear it my skin crawls.

The Music is terrible, but i can just leave the room when it comes on. But that noise, it sneaks up on you!
I believe in the chain of command, Its the chain I use to beat you till you do what i want!!!

It took me a while to realize that it was sound effect for live/replay replay/live transition, was wondering where on earth that whizz noise is coming from, is it some sort of howling or echo, at first, before noticing it was transition sound effect.

Yikes

Now I'm scared, that the horrible sound is coming any time during watching eff wun....every time that noise comes, I feel cringe thrusting from my stomach to throat to top of my head!!!

Could be worse. Could be Bonnie Tyler. At least she had a hit single though.

I'd not mind that. Maybe she could write a theme tune for the midfield, call it ... Total Eclipse of the Haas.

Or re-release Holding Out for Hero and donate the proceeds to Williams.

This is god awful. Just heard it for the first time.

Im sure i could have done better, The Chain is a killer song for Terrestrial, i like Just Drive on Sky Sports F1 now. However the old NASCAR Metallica Fuel and the present Country Blake Shelton ones mentioned earlier are good. I think they should have adapted something like what American Football (Hand Egg type, not proper football) have with Carrie Underwood adapting the song she sand with Miranda lambert in Something Bad would have been best. Something in the 90 second range, not a 3 minute 30 second thing that would be good in a poor Avengers copy.



Personally, as Im a Carrie Underwood fan, a edit of her new song Champion would have been killer:



And if there was a F1 Rocks with Carrie there, Im there front and bloody centre, and Im dragging along as many of the Country Scene from here as i can.

Something Country Rock would have been my preference, or if you want Metal, Disturbed - What Are you Waiting For



Shinedown - Cut The Cord:



Or, you could just take Maren Morris and 80s Mercedes or My Church:





An edit of any of the above would have been killer.

If it was any of the last 3 id loose my sh*t as Ive heard them live more than once. Or just get Taylor Swift to write a song??? Something in Rock/Metal/Country/Taylor Swift would have been my preference, as long as its not the Gap Toothed wonder from the TUI adverts here in the UK.

Great post, great selection.
My pick is Shinedown and played in the Jaguar XJ13 at full noise ( both) and finish with the glass cracked :D

Hand Egg type? You mean rugby - a man's game played by men? Not soccer-ball, a girl's game played by overpaid divas with silly hair? :lol:

No. He means NFL hand egg type.

Unless you put NFL and Rugby as the same sport.

@ESPImperium

God I hate that TUI girl! Can't sing, looks so arrogant! I'd avoid TUI because of her and those adverts alone. On the subject of adverts, love the new money supermarket advert with the action men!
