Tech Bites: Fire-up of an F1 engine - Sauber F1 Team

"Hear me ROAR...!" Learn details about how and why an engine fire-up is performed and listen to the sound of the engine being boosted from idle to some 10,000 rpm!

The race car in this video has left Hinwil, Switzerland, a few hours ago and is now on its way to Sochi, Russia, where Sergey Sirotkin will jump in for our demo drive on 27th September 2013.
