The V10 Engine era in Formula 1 (1995-2005) - This era used a 3.0 L formula, with a power range between 650 hp (485 kW) and 965 hp (720 kW). Current F1 Engine today is (2014 - Present) is V6 Turbo Hybrid Engine.

There are many different types of car engines which sound good, but nothing comes close to a V10 engine in a racing car. Particularly a Formula 1 car with a V10 engine. Here is why a V10 engine in an Formula 1 Car (1995-2005) had a loud, powerful and unique screaming noise at high speed. Here is the video below:

Here is another great example of how powerful these car were. Below is a high quality video of the engine noise of a V10 Williams F1 car.
WARNING: First 30 seconds is LOUD.

And here are other videos of the V10 Engine Formula 1 cars. And ofcourse, enjoy :)

Finally here is video of all the Ferrari F1 V6, V8, V10 and V12 sound comparisons.

This is a world record for the BUGATTI Chiron. The 1,500 PS super car has accelerated from a standing start to 400 km/h (249 mph) and braked back to a standstill in just 42 seconds (41.96). This is the fastest time ever reached and officially measured for this driving manoeuvre for a production vehicle throughout the world. The Chiron completed the manoeuvre in a distance of only 3.112 kilometres. Here is the Youtube video from Bugatti's Official Youtube Channel:
