Stop trying to make Formula E a thing. It's just not going to happen. If you have not been in the presence of the orchestral cacophony that is V10 engine's slinging around 18k rpm, you loose your right to comment.

So you're saying you're not really in it for the competition, you just like the spectacle?

Brief moment in time. Look on the timeline a little bit longer than drive to survive.

Senna v Prost?

Schumacher v Hakkinen?

Alonso v Vettel (2012)?

Hamilton v Rosberg (2016) ?

Hamilton v Alonso?

The whole of 2010?

I’m curious, I watched something about how F1 are migrating towards hybrid drive chains, does that change the sound at all?

GP seems to be a little factious, they haven't had V10s in awhile, although they were considered the 'best sounding' F1 engine. They have migrated to hybrid V6s for the last 5 years or so.

If it was just for the sound, perhaps we'd just insist on the 4 rotor wankle engines of the 787b

while I agree that the v10 is the most unholy of sky shredding sounds…. its been almost 20yrs since F1 has had them at this point. Times change I guess..
