Top Comments of this video!! :3
When my father and I first visited an F1 race at the Nürburgring in 2004, the sound of those V10 shocked us immensely. It's hard to describe in words, those things SCREAMED like nothing I had ever heard before. First thing we did when we got back that day was buy some earplugs because my god, you needed those. The V8 engines introduced a few years after still sounded great, but it was already a huge step down from the V10's.

All around great video. The V10's remain the pinnacle of engine's IMO. Small correction, F1 never had a limit of 17,000 rpm. It's funny how the FIA strayed from V10s because of "cost" as they claim, but the complex power units of today are far more expensive. Unfortunately 3.0L V10s can never be as efficient as the today's hybrid engines.

Back in the '60's Honda wanted to see if rpm could outrun the flame speed at very high revs. This CAN happen which then needs more timing advance but if the cylinder plumbing is made correctly the VE will increase as the rpm's come up and not need more timing. I think they hit 24,000 and the flame front was still accelerating with the engine speed.

They actually reached the end of the line... at around 21.000 rpm the Flame isn't fast enough to keep delivering more Power with more revs, cause the pressure raise starts being slower then the gas cycle in the piston. The work cycles is so Short, it has no time to burn through or expand.
