The 24-hour Le Mans race in France is known as the toughest endurance race in the world.
Japanese cars first entered the Le Mans race in the 1970 s, but it was only in the 1980 s that automakers began to take part in the Works race with pride and flaunting their technological prowess.
Three companies, Nissan, Toyota and Mazda, were particularly keen on the race, but at first they were unable to complete the race.
In the Group C category, the race was focused on a machine with a powerful engine mounted in the center of a low, flat race car body that is not related to a commercial vehicle.
Among other companies, Mazda used a rotary engine with a completely different structure. Despite concerns about durability, Mazda successfully ran 24 hours in the Le Mans 24-hour race in 1991 to become the first Japanese car to win the overall championship.
The feat of winning the Le Mans 24-hour race with a rotary engine car for the first time in the history of Le Mans will continue to be described as a symbolic event in the history of the race.
