AMG"s new Project One hypercar famously uses a 2015-spec Formula 1 engine in something fit for the road. Should they build a Project Two", they"ve got a new base. This, ladies and gentlemen, is a (relatively) long video for a little burst of noise. But it"s an important noise. It"s the noise of Mercedes-AMG"s 2018 Formula 1 car starting up. You"ll have to scoot to around the 30-second mark when, for around seven seconds, your ears will be treated to the 1.6-litre V6 firing up. AMG tell us it is the result of "a thousand man years in the making". Basically, a ton of people worked on it.
