Before buying a car, some friends often hear sales consultants at 4S stores say, "This car is so good, it has won awards," but many friends haven't even heard of the event, let alone know about it.


Today sharing this content with everyone so that when you buy a car in the future, you won't "only know the sales talk, but not the reason behind it." With this article, sales tactics will not affect you when buying a car.


<b>The Le Mans 24 Hours Endurance Race</b>,<b> the FIA Formula One World Championship (F1)</b>, and <b>the World Rally Championship (WRC) </b>are known as the world's three most famous and most brutal automotive events.


The Le Mans 24 Hours Endurance Race: Le Mans is a small commercial city near Paris, France, with a population of about 200,000. It gained worldwide fame mainly because of the "Le Mans 24 Hours Endurance Race," held annually since 1923 (except for 1936 and 1940-1948).


Unlike other racing events, the Le Man's race is the most grueling test of a car's speed and endurance; it requires manufacturers to produce the fastest racing cars and vehicles that are both fast and stable. Additionally, they must be fuel-efficient, as making fewer pit stops for refueling during the race aids in achieving victory.


Three drivers form one team and drive a car to compete continuously for 24 hours. The 59th edition of the race in 1991 saw Mazda's rotary engine become famous overnight.


The FIA Formula One World Championship (F1) is the highest level of annual series circuit racing competitions organized by the International Automobile Federation (FIA). F1 is the highest level of racing competition today and is considered one of the "world's three major sporting events" alongside the Olympic Games and the FIFA World Cup.


F1 cars are specially designed and manufactured for racing, with extremely high speeds and handling capabilities, but they are also costly and complex. Each year, F1 holds races in different countries and regions worldwide, attracting billions of viewers and fans.


The World Rally Championship (WRC) is hailed as the most demanding rally race in the world, where participating vehicles compete on various terrains such as rainforests, mud, snow, deserts, and winding mountain roads. Nearly one billion people worldwide watch the event in multiple ways each year, making it one of the most charming competitions.


The rules of WRC are very detailed; participating vehicles must be prototype cars with annual production exceeding 2500 units by major automobile manufacturers. Additionally, there are strict regulations on the dimensions, weight, displacement, power, etc., of modified race cars, and both a driver and a navigator must drive each vehicle.


Unlike the expensive tickets of F1, WRC not only does not require purchasing tickets but also allows spectators to experience the event live. The performance of different drivers on the same corner can vary significantly, making it more enjoyable to watch. Since the cars in the race are modified production cars, there is also the possibility of effectively emulating various specific modifications.


Understanding iconic automotive events like the Le Mans 24 Hours, F1, and WRC enhances your car-buying knowledge and increases your appreciation of the automotive world. So, next time you hear about an award-winning car, you'll know its significance. Happy car shopping!
