Mazda gave Le Mans a knockout performance in 1991. No Japanese automaker had ever won the endurance classic before. And none has won it since.
The rotary-powered 787B Race Car outlasted rivals from Mercedes and Jaguar, and took the number one spot with just 2 hours left in the grueling race.
With its success at Le Mans, Mazda is immortalized alongside other great automakers like Audi, Porsche, Ford, Ferrari, Mercedes, Aston Martin, BMW and McLaren.
More evidence that Mazda can take on the world’s biggest and best automakers, with a win at Le Mans the brand’s racing pedigree is unquestioned.
