Watch this Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Engine Breathe Fire

By Manuel Carrillo III - November 20, 2013

We’re adding a bit of external combustion (fire) to your AMG Monday Morning Wake-Up Call. Mercedes AMG Petronas has released video of a 2.4-liter FO108 V8 F1 engine that’s on a strict fire diet.

V8 engines are about to take their final bow at Formula One, making way for the introduction of the 1.6-liter turbocharged V6 paired with an electric motor.

Burn the sights and sounds of this dyno test into the back of your mind, for they will be gone soon.
