Group C cars were faster than F1 cars on the straights, everyone knows that, they were of course going to be, especially on Le Mans spec. But at best, a Group C car could beat a midfield F1 car, because let's not forget that F1 cars in the 80's had a difference of like a million years from the fastest cars to the slowest. And even still, I'm talking about Group C cars like your Jaguars and Mercedes, not the slower ones no one remembers.

But also, behind a little team called Euro Racing, which ran a Spice SE90C, a 1990 car; they didn't had a single podium all season and even had a retirement, whereas Mazda finished every race, and yet they still finished ahead Mazda in the championship, which just show how slow the 787B actually was.

To my memory of the time, the whole "Group C faster than F1" cars thing was born out of a test in 1991, in Monza, where the Group C Mercedes lapped faster than the 1990 F1 fastest lap (in the race). I remember buying a magazine back then (Italian Autosprint) with an article about the test, but for the life of me can't find it anymore - and can't find info of that test anywhere online, so if anyone can shed some light, it would be great! That said, it's easy to see how specific the conditions were - a car in a private test (where THEORETICALLY, rules don't apply, they could lap underweight for all we know, ask Sauber what they did in their first F1 winter test in 1993...) lapping quicker than an F1 car did the year before under race conditions (where fastest laps would usually be at least 3 or 4 seconds slower than qualifying times). One interesting thing is that the track F1 and Group C were the closest in qualifying, was for some reason the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez in Mexico City (back then with a different layout than today), where pole for the two categories in 1991 was less than 3 seconds apart; The polesitting Group C car would've qualified in 16th in the F1 Grand Prix - although the races were held at very different times of the year. So in a sense yes, on selected tracks the top Group C cars were faster than some F1 cars - as long as these cars were Dallara, Ligier or Footwork and not McLaren, Williams, Ferrari, Benetton or anything else near the top end of the grid...

The new 3.5L N/A engine rule slowed down the group c cars by a lot but the last gen group cars like Peugeot 905 and Toyota TS010 had managed gaining a huge time to its turbo era by increasing the downforce with blown diffuser but even then it was all in vain because the new engine rule killed the sport, it simply too expensive and complex as it has the same spec as f1 engine and small teams simply couldn't afford it.

No surprise that a Group C has an higher top speed by a considerable margin. An average F1 car has a worse drag coefficient than a truck. This mainly due to the open wheel architecture - wheels are responsible for an enormous amount of drag. In any other field though, an F1 car outclasses anything else - Group C included.

Formula 1 had been pretty dumbed down by banning streamlined bodies in the early 60s, the fan car, the 6 whelers, ground effects after '82 and reducing the power of the turbos after '87 (when Hondas were making 1000 hp in race trim). And still Formula 1 is faster.

The MP4/4 is itself a nerfed f1 car. It's the last of the turbo era that was only a shell of it's former self. If you don't believe me go compare the pole times. Jerez 1986 pole: 1:21.6 Jerez 1988 pole: 1:24.0 The fastest laps were closer but still the mid 80's cars were quicker. This narrative that they were nerfed to not compete with F1 falls apart when F1 was nerfed aswell. Did they nerf f1 to not compete with F0?
@RukaGoldheart
@RukaGoldheart Жыл бұрын
The original group C cars were heavily nerfed so it wouldn't overshadow the new category of 3.5L NA sports cars. Category created to attract manufacturers to F1 who used... 3.5L NA engines. And one of the reasons those rules were created it was because endurance racing at the time was just popular if not more than F1. Balestre and Bernie did not intend to almost kill endurance racing as whole, they simply wanted the manufacturers to join the F1 circus.

Next time out, at Silverstone, Dalmas produced a lap bettered by only 12 F1 cars the following July. And then, at Magny-Cours, Alliot came up with a time good enough for a spot on the fourth row for the French GP. What’s more, the fastest of Peugeot’s drivers over one lap reckons that he did a time in testing at the Nevers circuit that was only eclipsed by Williams drivers Nigel Mansell and Riccardo Patrese in F1 qualifying."

Not 100% sure but the only time we had prototypes faster than F1 was probably like in 1970 with the 917K and i'm not even sure on downforce demanding tracks it would have been true. I'm extremely amazed seing historic track sessions involving legend cars such as Porsche 962 on places like Hockenheimring being flatout outmaoeuvered by cars such as 488GT cars.... I assume as it's probably been said multiple times, group C performed extremely well for their task : go fast for 5000 km non stop, while staying reliable with "low" fuel consumption. It was not about 1 hot lap.

Otherwise we would not have different motorsport disciplines. The only common denominator i see is the human being, that will drive them at absolute edge of their capabilities. So if we compare, what the actual drivers must have be able to do, in order to win, the most skilled ones are the rally drivers. This way WRC really should be a pinnacle of motorsport.

F1 car lighter not faster, but makes the difference,now imagine the jag shedding 100 kg , it would increase its power and maybe tip its speed at 400 km /hour plus!

Just once I would like to see a comparison where the F1 car has to race by the rules of the OTHER car. No standing start, at night (boohoo if you don't have lights) and in cold temperatures. How about F1 against a rally car on a tarmac event?

Stupid comparation that people still do. Diferent types of disciplines. Diferent weight, tyres, tune, reliability and rulesets. Even the way they do battle is very diferent. You can transform both type of cars into missile if rules allowed. Both pinnacle on their respective disciplines of racing.

Por lo que ví en rectas y aceleración final el Jaguar de Grupo C es estratósferamente superior, pero en cambio en aceleración y enlace de curvas el Maclaren de F1 es mejor.

comparisons, comparisons but whatever is the winner been decades since I'm not willing to watch any F1 race and that's what matters, ugly cars, ridiculous engine sound, dominance of few drivers/crews with no direct competitors, toys that you not see on the road... I've chosen WRC instead

That Jag is capped on its top speed, it's a recorded fact they got up to +390 kph down the Mulsanne straight, and here it struggles with the 'so' maybe 370 kph capable MP4/4. Capping the Jag down to 375 kph is deffinetly an insane attempt at closing the action between the cars (just what Balestre would've wanted!). Anyway, apples to oranges.
