Engine Volume
When compared with 1 kg Hp, then Honda F1 is 8 times more powerful than S2000.
In order to run fast in races, the F1 engine is made lighter and with higher
power. Sticking to lightness of engine with no specified weight is to adjust
with difference of ballast as it is made lighter than the specified weight of
car body. As ballast area is free, so to make setting more appropriately, by
matching car's weight balance (before/after) with the course with large
adjusting width.
The present F1 engine is with 3 litres naturally aspirated V type 10 cylinders
and Honda F1 engine [ Honda RA005E ] gives maximum output of more than 900
horse power.
Engine weight
As far as the weight is concerned, it is same as the weight of a well built
sportsman which is 95kg.
Lets compare this 1 litre air volume displacement capacity engine of Honda with
very superior S2000 engine. The 2 litres S2000 with 4 cylinders DOHC VTECH
engine is of 200kg and gives maximum output of 250 hp. However the Honda F1
engine with 1 litre gives the output of 300hp which 2.4 times that of S2000.
900hp ÷ 90kg and S2000 is of 1.25hp 250hp ÷ 200kg. which becomes approx. 8
times of it.
Honda has built F1 with highest technology, lightness and more power.
