Now you're just twisting things into something I did not say. I did not comment on the experience , just the sound and engines for the most part (along with straight cut gearboxes) make up for racing sound.

You commented on that it does not sound stressed
It has Big V8 with turbo's.
The 730 hp is made at 7000 rpm, for a purpose built racecar, that's not high revs
The Sauber-Mercedes also did not use high boost. 1 bar and a 1,1 bar for qualifying

a 917/30 had a boost dial that went up to 2.7 bar.

All I said, was that they did not in anyway design or build a highly stressed engine.
They built one for low end torque and durability.
So why would it sound stressed?
