Os rotativos tem algumas peculiaridades quanto a capacidade cúbica comparados aos motores ciclo Otto, 2.6 num Wankel seria algo 5.2 num motor de 4 pistões.
A 2.6L rotary is equivalent to a 5.2L 4-stroke in rotational displacement. A 5.2L will pump half it's displacement (2.6L) in one rotation. The 2.6L rotary will pump all of it's displacement (2.6L) in one rotation. In both cases, 2.6L is pumped per one crankshaft rotation. It's not difficult to imaging a 5.2L (spinning at >9k) to produce 930HP.
The Mazda R26B has a true, total displacement of 7.8 liters. The FIA allowed it to compete as a 5.2 liter using the 2x conversion formula that is widely known and accepted by engineers and motorsports sanctioning bodies
+6Twisted Well, Nissan Skyline was basically banned too after it blew everything else out of the water. Fan cars got banned in F1 and CanAm. I could go on. :P You can be dominant but not *too* dominant.
+Brīva Eiropa Well the split turbo was not illegal and some of the cars in the past that blew people out of the water took 1-2 yrs of dominance too before being banned. 1950-1 Alfa's, the Lotus's (cant recall the exact models) 2+ times, the McLarens did something too in the late 80'ties etc. And heh, Mercedes in 1954-5 too. If they had not had the LM accident and the weight of the war (a German car killing 80 French ppl 10 yrs after the war, not good, regardless that it happened bc of an English driver Mike Hawthorn), then Merc would've dominated too with their desmodronic valvetrains.
+6Twisted The FIA introduced new '3.5L' rules for the 1991 World Sportscar Championship which meant a new type of sports-prototype. At the end of the 1991 season, all engines (including Wankel-type engines) were outlawed and, as per Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile's earlier decision, 3.5-litre Formula One engines became the new formula for the 1992 season (An effort from B. Ecclestone to get big manufacturers and their money into his precious F1). In the year 1992, Mazda entered the MXR-01, based on the Jaguar XJR-14 and powered by a Judd unit. The older Group-C cars now had to deal with numerous restrictions, giving the new Group-C+ cars an advantage. Peugeot took the victory over the Toyota TS010. The #2 Peugeot finished third and the (Oreca) Mazdaspeed MXR-01 took 4th place. Places 1 to 4 were all based on the Group-C+ regulations. Although the 787B is an astonishing car, it was made and entered after the organisation published the rule changes in the late 80's. Mazda was using Wankel engines in prototype Group C junior class cars since 1983 (Mazda 717C).
Just like people banned the Chaparral 2J and the F1 Fan car xD. "Sorry you worked so hard on this technology that makes your car 30 seconds faster than everyone else but, fuck you, we're banning it."

@@cbr1thou your R1 has big ole pistons that barely move up and down, relatively. Short rod-to-stroke ratio is required for very high revs with pistons, but for Rotary, it comes naturally, as rotors spin 1/3 of E-shaft speed, essentially 3x better than even a short rod-to-stroke ratio at high RPM.

The only reason Mazda isn't making Wankels at the moment is because it was banned in racing. It's really hard to develop new technology if you're not racing and getting funding from sponsors. That ban after the win, also slowed development of the rotaries. Had it not been banned, they would probably have solved most of the problems by now
Yeah Mazda quit making rotary because they didn't wanna fix the problems, too expensive. They had a chance with the renesis but we all saw how that went
The problem is emissions, rotaries just aren't clean per-se. Who knows if Mazda can bring in tech to get them more clean. Maybe tech borrowed from Diesels? Direct injection...? Rotor shut-off? Sadly I'm pretty sure that if Mazda were to return to Le Mans with a wankel, they wouldn't have a high rotor count. This, along side many historical masterpieces, is a thing of the past now.
1990 (787) and 1991 (787B) I was there for both years... What a great car. We snuck through the woods to the side of the Mulsanne straight at 4am and watched them go past at full tilt until we were moved away by a fire crew. What a noise. The exhaust flames curled like devils horns on braking, quite something. The pits were quite open at that time and the Mazda crew were very friendly but we didn't speak Japanese which was a shame. What a car!!!
The Wankel engine just isn't a very good engine. It's great for racing perhaps. But it doesn't translate into real world technology. It's just insanely inefficient outside of the optimal window. It was forced out of Le Mans, because the piston guys tried to use the race to promote their mix of power, durability and efficiency to sell roadcars. Back then the loud, thirsty and nondurable Wankel was not marketable. Today anything not at least hybrid is not marketable.
@@tl275 Power is limited by RPM. They never revved it past 8000rpm during the race. Peripheral ports on a rotary is sort of an exponential power increase as the RPM's rise because it the most direct path to the combustion chamber.
Joker J. Clown ye I am infact playing the AUTO UNION right now! its such fun to drive though it is so hard! remember: there are CHEATS to use it in all races:D
I own a Mazda RX8 so maybe I'm not very impartial but I have to say that the rotary engine is a masterpiece of engineering, despite of being a bit thirsty.
It depends what you compare it to. My RX-7 (26MPG) uses less gas than my Legacy GT (21MPG) and to top it off, they both consume about the same amount of oil. On the other hand, my MR2 (36MPG) is much better on fuel and doesn't consume oil.
It would be interesting to see how rotaries compare to piston engines in terms of horsepower per litre(quart) of fuel burned. 900 hp requires a certain minimum amount to fuel to be burned because there's a limit to the amount of energy in any fixed amount of fuel. You can get big power by burning the minimum amount of fuel efficiently, or by pumping larger quantities of fuel through the engine quickly. I suspect rotaries tend toward the latter, but it would be fun to see the numbers.
The sound just produces a steady stream of...goosebumps! A howling, screaming, barking mad pitch. Just amazing. Too bad F1 gave into the muffled plodding of turbos.
@TheGamer Maybe. But it was invented/pioneered by a French engineer/inventor Félix Théodore Millet in 1888 and put in a car for the first time by a former American watchmaker and rotary engine constructor Stephen M. Balzer in 1894.
@TheBoltMaster that's a matter of opinion that's not fact so how about you throw some facts my way instead of acting like a child and throwing insults simply because I don't agree with you personally I prefer the roar of a big V8 compared to the sound of a rotary engine and also putting it out there I never said this car didn't sound good all I said was "I much prefer the sound of a V8 to a rotary engine"
@@bluehornet197 in my opinion pushrod v8 belongs to 20th century and it sounds like shit, nothing can beat the ferrari or cosworth or lambo or amg v12 and the 5.2l v10
Dude this engine is so OP that after 24 hrs race ended the engineer check it and said its ready to race another 24hrs now thats insane reliability and durability
Wasn't so much they did something wrong, than a component failure, that's like saying the team f@#*ed up in 98' when the transmission failed after 21 hours of strain, or the Mercedes team failed in 1992 because the lead car overheated as it sucked in too much debris across the radiator...You can't control random failures, or a design flaw you didn't expect to occur.
Yeah, I know. I wanted them to win so badly, and seeing them just sitting there on the start/finish line broke my heart. Still a bit salty about the whole thing. I wanted Toyota to win. The TS020 was enough of a heartbreak already
We need this in F1. Imagine what a race would it be, few teams with hibrids, few with wankels, few with V8s. Damn. Different fuel consumptions, different weights, different tires, and also refueling. Only engine limit should be peak torque (so no huge power surges in hibrids) and horsepower, at 1000 BHP.
Carpenter well torque shouldn't really influence differences in speed at all right? Especially considering that these rotories and most smaller displacement f1 cars get their power and acceleration on how fast and how high they rev as opposed to the big displacement guys that get their acceleration from low end torque.
Carpenter i think in the event that they could create a reliable and fuel efficient wankel, if would win 9 times out of 10. v8's only distinctive advantage is how studied and researched they are so that the cars can be tailored to them, and the hybrid would hit a peak top speed that would probably be lower than the others. Wankel torque would give it a clear advantage in the pulls and out of the corners, but the v8 might pull ahead in the straights.
Audi quattros were band in America after they were just cleaning up all the corvetts etc, they tried to limit the turbo inlets etc Google it, it all happened in the 80s
Koenigsegg would win race to 1st corner, then AWD Audi would pass him on outside or inside. That AWD pulls those cars thru corners, tire slippage is no problem to correct with all 4 wheels pulling.
heb je de nieuwe RX-Vision conceptcar nog niet gezien dan? Als die op de markt komt krijgt die een SKYACTIV-R motor, en die R staat voor Rotary, dus spanneeennddd.
Why does it take 4 Doritos to make 930 hp while it takes 3x as much pistons to make that exact power and the engine is so much bigger than rotary engines (Question answered plz i knowz already)
Sounds that made my hair stand up and sent chills down my spine: 1) The bag pipes during the Queen Mother's funeral 2) Freddie Mercury's vocals 3) This race car
This is one of the few cars that exists that sounds so good it sends chills down my goddamn spine every time I hear it. I bet whoever was racing against this car when it won Le Mans was terrified of it.

And yet, highly plausible. To each his own I guess. Though I personally feel the 787B leaves nothing to be desired for the latest Le Mans engines. The 919 is one example. (No hate, just preference.)
+lulus panjulus Very true. I love the sound of the 26B, I'm just saying there is competition in the sounds department. The Jaguar XJR-9, Porsche 917, Matra 670, Toyota TS010, BMW LMR, McLaren F1, and Panoz LMP-1 just to name a few are also to be considered IMO.
Mazda was banned because the FIA wanted to switch to 3.5 litre V10 engines. (like the F1 ones). Then it was polluting and not fuel-efficient. The things developed in the races (like KERS) are usually used for normal street cars. Sorry for the grammar.
HAHAHAHA first time I heard that statement about rotaries. Personally, I was focusing on the sound and the flames from the exhaust, which is really what rotaries are known for.
Oddly enough I hear Mercedes and Ferrari are deliberately adding oil to the combustion chamber of their F1 cars for "lubricating" purposes although the truth is it boosts power.
The Mazda 787B was a great car with a super, F1-style sound! It's a shame rotary engines were banned. (I remember how unhappy I was as a young boy when USAC banned gas turbine engines after the 1968 Indianapolis 500. The Type 56 Lotus "Super Wedge" remains one the greatest cars in racing history. The Mazda 787B is right up there with it! )
i would gladly give up fuel efficiency for that rip roaring sound, thats without even considering the horsepower. to all the Americans with the v8 sounds, this is what a true race car should sound like.
Additionally 1991 was NOT the only year rotary engines have taken part in the 24hr of Le Mans as mentioned in the video. They had rotaries in Group C/Junior Group C since 1983 and before that they were racing RX7s in the GT class. Incidentally they were 'banned' well before that race and Mazda always knew it was going to be their swan-song due to the ending of Group C and the introduction of a new formula that didn't include rotaries and was limited in capacity (3.5L, conventional piston engines IIRC).
I love that car. It’s amazing and gorgeous and fast. Perfect. And you don’t have to be very fuel efficient on 24h if you are fast and reliable. Congratulations Mazda. Respect Nippon.
But... that was the whole point of the bloody car. Wankels can run with less full then most engines. They burn oil like hell, and are in fact not good engines, hell the only reason the 787B won Le Mans was because the two Mercs infront dropped out due to mechanical failures. It wasnt even fast, it was off the pace of merc, porsche and jaguar.
@@maladvojka8376 They didnt. The story is a bit complicated but basically, for 1991 ALL cars had to switch to 3,5 liter engines but because of reliability issues with every major team execpt Peugeot, teams where allowed to switch back to last years chassis. Also it was not the fastest car by a long shot, in quali it was a solid 12 seconds behind the lead prototypes, the car had extreme reliability. Out of all of the races it ran, it only won Le Mans. It had no more victories, didnt win the previous year. 1991 was a one of.
@@donlove3741 Yeah it won, once. It didnt win after nor before. Its not as fast as the prototypes and it won because it was super reliable. Its just wrong when people say it was so fast that it was banned

@@izzurumusic bullshit, porsche it self suffered under the FIA when they totally dominated the Can-Am series with the 917/30. They were 11 seconds faster than F1 in the same year on Qualifying Spec
i don't understand why or how these cars can make so much horsepower from such little displacement...why don't they use the same tech in their roadcars? do they?
Only answer I can give you to is - because rotary, bro! And Mazda used rotary engines in their road cars, mostly only two-rotors, once even a three-rotor, but never a four-rotor production car.
Look up the Mazda Eunos Cosmo - it was the only car that had the 20B three-rotor rotary engine. However, plenty of people swapped it into other cars, mostly the RX-7s
because road cars would be astronomically expensive then. Race cars use very expensive materials in their construction and in their engines. if regular road cars did this, cars would be too expensive. also race cars are not mad for road use. using these engines at regular road speeds never really works out as it is quite difficult to drive them that way.
Rotary engine are cheaper to produce, costly to maintain and use more fuel. Just look up Mazda RX7 and RX8, regular road cars that still are widely used for daily driving.
The thing that I love the most about this car is not just the Formula One sound, but the fact that it's got the Formula One sound with a regular manual gearbox, so you have that noticeable gap between gear changes. With the Formula One cars and their fancy paddle shifters, you don't get that at all. The part at 1:25 I have listened to over and over, because it's the most glorious sound humankind has ever devised.
Which is why they fluked into one win in the 21 races it entered. 0 pole positions, 0 fastest laps 1 win 0 podiums other than the one win. Great sound, shit car.
Jan Nowak This is the second time I’ve seen you talk about someone’s mother. That leads me to believe you have an incestious relationship with your own mother and that’s why you bring it up so often- because your conscious is guilty.
Yes they sound good, yes they have very good power ratio for the size but In this day and age being fuel efficient is very important, fuel is very expensive, this engine is not fuel efficient because it doesn't burn all the fuel that goes into the combustion chamber and throws it out the back, that is a serious flaw, this type of engines also burn oil has well, oil that also gets thrown out the back from the exhaust, etc. IMO this kind of engine are pretty much dead and for a good reason.
Senna would have driven this Mazda like a beast , he enjoyed to always be on the high reving band of all gears and using downshifts instead of breaking at corners.
Mazda 787b is so Overrated . Only won 1 Race and was slower than Mercedes, Jaguar , Peugeot and some Porsches. I Know it looks good and sounds good but everyone saying it was too good , but it really wasn't good.

It would be interesting to see how rotaries compare to piston engines in terms of horsepower per litre(quart) of fuel burned. 900 hp requires a certain minimum amount to fuel to be burned because there's a limit to the amount of energy in any fixed amount of fuel. You can get big power by burning the minimum amount of fuel efficiently, or by pumping larger quantities of fuel through the engine quickly. I suspect rotaries tend toward the latter, but it would be fun to see the numbers.
The sound just produces a steady stream of...goosebumps!
A howling, screaming, barking mad pitch. Just amazing. Too bad F1 gave into the muffled plodding of turbos.
Rotary is such legendary engine

@TheGamer Maybe. But it was invented/pioneered by a French engineer/inventor Félix Théodore Millet in 1888 and put in a car for the first time by a former American watchmaker and rotary engine constructor Stephen M. Balzer in 1894.

It is the only Japanese manufacturer to ever win Le mans so far, 25 years and Toyota came close but ended up in 2nd.
Fucked it up in the last couple of laps, bunch of cucks
Wasn't so much they did something wrong, than a component failure, that's like saying the team f@#*ed up in 98' when the transmission failed after 21 hours of strain, or the Mercedes team failed in 1992 because the lead car overheated as it sucked in too much debris across the radiator...You can't control random failures, or a design flaw you didn't expect to occur.
Yeah, I know. I wanted them to win so badly, and seeing them just sitting there on the start/finish line broke my heart. Still a bit salty about the whole thing. I wanted Toyota to win. The TS020 was enough of a heartbreak already

Omg that shifting sound at 5:59
😍
Racing: originally created for the purpose of developing new ideas
Mazda: *develops new idea*
Racing: “Okay hey hey let’s play fair”
We need this in F1. Imagine what a race would it be, few teams with hibrids, few with wankels, few with V8s. Damn. Different fuel consumptions, different weights, different tires, and also refueling. Only engine limit should be peak torque (so no huge power surges in hibrids) and horsepower, at 1000 BHP.
Just watch Le Mans
Carpenter well torque shouldn't really influence differences in speed at all right? Especially considering that these rotories and most smaller displacement f1 cars get their power and acceleration on how fast and how high they rev as opposed to the big displacement guys that get their acceleration from low end torque.
+Belicose777 With conventional engines yes, i meant the torque limit for hibrid systems, where peak torque could theoretically happen at 0 RPM.
Carpenter understood. You're right.
Carpenter i think in the event that they could create a reliable and fuel efficient wankel, if would win 9 times out of 10. v8's only distinctive advantage is how studied and researched they are so that the cars can be tailored to them, and the hybrid would hit a peak top speed that would probably be lower than the others. Wankel torque would give it a clear advantage in the pulls and out of the corners, but the v8 might pull ahead in the straights.
I always thought the 787B was a cool car, but that downshift at 4:58 made me fall in love with it.
I always added a turbo kit to the car in Gran Turismo and its my go-to car for most races that don't require a specific car
My mom came in my room while I was playing this video and I said
‘It’s not what it looks like!’
Same thing for us car Boyz! 😋
This might be the most beautiful engine sound I've ever heard. wow. Car ASMR.
If it's too good make it illegal, like the famous Audi quattros
why would quattros be illegal?
Audi quattros were band in America after they were just cleaning up all the corvetts etc, they tried to limit the turbo inlets etc
Google it, it all happened in the 80s
The Audi with AWD were killing the competition in corner speed alone.
Enough straight line power to pull wheelies..
@@waynegacyii9010 whats better.. audi or koenigsegg?
Koenigsegg would win race to 1st corner, then AWD Audi would pass him on outside or inside. That AWD pulls those cars thru corners, tire slippage is no problem to correct with all 4 wheels pulling.
I am a simple man. I see 787B video, I click it and like it
1:35 That downshifting sound 0.o
Great car! I always liked the sound 👄

Rotary: **wins a race**
FiA: "wait, that's illegal"
Mazda was banned because the FIA wanted to switch to 3.5 litre V10 engines. (like the F1 ones).
Then it was polluting and not fuel-efficient. The things developed in the races (like KERS) are usually used for normal street cars. Sorry for the grammar.
*black smoke shooting out of the exhaust* Yep it's a rotary! Haha
HAHAHAHA first time I heard that statement about rotaries. Personally, I was focusing on the sound and the flames from the exhaust, which is really what rotaries are known for.
probably considered a 2 stroke with oil mixed to the fuel so....
Oddly enough I hear Mercedes and Ferrari are deliberately adding oil to the combustion chamber of their F1 cars for "lubricating" purposes although the truth is it boosts power.
The Mazda 787B was a great car with a super, F1-style sound! It's a shame rotary engines were banned. (I remember how unhappy I was as a young boy when USAC banned gas turbine engines after the 1968 Indianapolis 500. The Type 56 Lotus "Super Wedge" remains one the greatest cars in racing history. The Mazda 787B is right up there with it! )
i would gladly give up fuel efficiency for that rip roaring sound, thats without even considering the horsepower. to all the Americans with the v8 sounds, this is what a true race car should sound like.
jason vallance F1 cars with v8 sound better than this, fuckwad.
But that V8 isn't an american V8, that's why it sounds good, but not better than the Mazda
Ignacio Romero Explain to me the most obvious technical differences between these so called "american v eights" and f1 v eights.
F1 V8 are high revs V8
Yes. Now explain to me how an American V8 engine isn't "a real engine"

Beautiful!
Simply music for the ears of those who love cars.
Additionally 1991 was NOT the only year rotary engines have taken part in the 24hr of Le Mans as mentioned in the video. They had rotaries in Group C/Junior Group C since 1983 and before that they were racing RX7s in the GT class. Incidentally they were 'banned' well before that race and Mazda always knew it was going to be their swan-song due to the ending of Group C and the introduction of a new formula that didn't include rotaries and was limited in capacity (3.5L, conventional piston engines IIRC).
I love that car. It’s amazing and gorgeous and fast. Perfect. And you don’t have to be very fuel efficient on 24h if you are fast and reliable. Congratulations Mazda. Respect Nippon.
But... that was the whole point of the bloody car. Wankels can run with less full then most engines. They burn oil like hell, and are in fact not good engines, hell the only reason the 787B won Le Mans was because the two Mercs infront dropped out due to mechanical failures. It wasnt even fast, it was off the pace of merc, porsche and jaguar.
@@communistloser3182 so why they banned them
@@maladvojka8376 They didnt. The story is a bit complicated but basically, for 1991 ALL cars had to switch to 3,5 liter engines but because of reliability issues with every major team execpt Peugeot, teams where allowed to switch back to last years chassis. Also it was not the fastest car by a long shot, in quali it was a solid 12 seconds behind the lead prototypes, the car had extreme reliability. Out of all of the races it ran, it only won Le Mans. It had no more victories, didnt win the previous year. 1991 was a one of.
@@communistloser3182 but it won . What's your point ?
@@donlove3741 Yeah it won, once. It didnt win after nor before. Its not as fast as the prototypes and it won because it was super reliable. Its just wrong when people say it was so fast that it was banned

sounds like a star wars landspeeder. EPIC!
engine so reliable that nobody ever made them again....kinda makes no sense
What do you mean?

i don't understand why or how these cars can make so much horsepower from such little displacement...why don't they use the same tech in their roadcars? do they?
Only answer I can give you to is - because rotary, bro! And Mazda used rotary engines in their road cars, mostly only two-rotors, once even a three-rotor, but never a four-rotor production car.
damn, cause jesus...such a fucking incredible sound. and im gonna have to look more into 3 rotor engines, thanks mate
Look up the Mazda Eunos Cosmo - it was the only car that had the 20B three-rotor rotary engine. However, plenty of people swapped it into other cars, mostly the RX-7s
because road cars would be astronomically expensive then. Race cars use very expensive materials in their construction and in their engines. if regular road cars did this, cars would be too expensive. also race cars are not mad for road use. using these engines at regular road speeds never really works out as it is quite difficult to drive them that way.
Rotary engine are cheaper to produce, costly to maintain and use more fuel. Just look up Mazda RX7 and RX8, regular road cars that still are widely used for daily driving.
The thing that I love the most about this car is not just the Formula One sound, but the fact that it's got the Formula One sound with a regular manual gearbox, so you have that noticeable gap between gear changes. With the Formula One cars and their fancy paddle shifters, you don't get that at all. The part at 1:25 I have listened to over and over, because it's the most glorious sound humankind has ever devised.

maybe they are inefficient engines but they sure sound cool as hell.
Maggot King they are very efficient! However they might not be fuel efficient
Yes they sound good, yes they have very good power ratio for the size but In this day and age being fuel efficient is very important, fuel is very expensive, this engine is not fuel efficient because it doesn't burn all the fuel that goes into the combustion chamber and throws it out the back, that is a serious flaw, this type of engines also burn oil has well, oil that also gets thrown out the back from the exhaust, etc. IMO this kind of engine are pretty much dead and for a good reason.
