Warming up a Renault F1 V10

Before you watch the video. Please read this first.

Obviously you need sound for this - but it’s well worth it!

The video is an English engineering crew warming up a Renault F1 V10 engine using computerized engine control telemetry from a laptop. The guy at the upper left of the video is running the laptop and has now been nominated for a knighthood.

Once the engine is warmed up something truly amazing happens!

Now the really cruel Irony…

The car is French!

they did a similar thing on Top Gear a while back. It was the episode where Hamster had a drive of various F1 cars. Still mighty impressive thogh.
