Jean Alesi qualifying at Adelaide... The V12 in the back of his Ferrari sounds utterly glorious.

Anyone else found any good clips of F1 engines sounding their best?

Great sound.

This is my favorite video hands down. It is Johnny Dumfries in a Lotus turbo in 1986. Its not so much the sound of the car why I like the video, but how good he is at heel-and-toe.

It also demonstrates how much hard work it is to drive an F1 car and why you would probably get thrashed by Dumfries in a Go-Kart race, even though he was no threat to Senna that year. Also in that video you see a car parked at the end of the pitlane just at the side of the track and dangerously close to oncoming cars. Today that would bring out the safety car, back then, just a yellow flag.

I really miss V12 engines, listening to their powerful shrieks, and also the roar of the V10 engines.
