Losing the exhaust "pop"

I have noticed there is no "pop" between gears in Sport+ mode when hold the break down, gas around 2000-2500 rpm's and then let off the break (C43 Race mode)

The "pops" are there every other time but only disappear when I try this technique.

Any ideas why? Is this normal?

Thanks everyone.

Same (2019), think some youtuber claimed that the C43 goes into "launch-mode" when brake-boosting and therefor focuses on Performance only, without Pops.
Then again, no one knows certain

I found this out in 2017 and wrote about this in forum. I explained why this happens and the differences if it does not happen. I am pretty sure you can find it out somewhere.

Can we somehow tune out the fart on upshifts for all situations? Currently I find the upshift fart extremely annoying. Interestingly, they only started getting louder after I hit 3,500km on the odometer. It happens on all the upshifts during regular driving.
