This may be a dumb question, but... why do those engines rev so high?

I mean, why do they rev them all the way up to 20k as opposed to 10k or so?

What does the torque curve look like for those? Do they make power all the way up there?

Crazy ----.

That's a 2.4L N/A V8 because the FIA are assholes and Formula 1 is ----. Formula 1 cars were slow already, now they're completely killing the sport.
