Yeah, about 800 Hp at 18.000 rpm!!

Did you notice the overrev light on the dash?

The amazing stuff today is that they have to keep the same engine over two races. It is really hightech to produce that kind of power from such a "small" engine and still have the durability.

It is truly amazing! I am also impressed with the fact that their tires need to last for qualifying and the race. :hail:

Wait 'til next year. 2.4 liter V8's, no more V10's (unless they are rev-limited). Teams are already testing engines, over 20k RPM.

Ooohya!

here is a video of the cosworth V8 being tested up to 20K RPM
Not as mouth watering as the other video but never the less.
