2013 Toro Rosso STR8 ex Jean-Éric Vergne Amazing 18000rpm V8 Scream!
https://www.kr-motorsports.ch/?langua...
I had the rare opportunity to film this Toro Rosso STR8, which was driven by Jean-Éric Vergne in 2013 season. The other driver in the team was Daniel Ricciardo. Vergne finished 15th overall, his best result being 6th place in British GP. The car is powered by a naturally aspirated Ferrari V8 engine and it was the last Toro Rosso to use Ferrari engine. Personally I still prefer the sound of a V10 in Formula 1 (for example in STR1, which I also filmed a few years ago), but this is still so much better sounding car than the modern turbocharged ones.
