How can the naturally aspirated V12 of the Aston Martin Valkyrie LMH keep up with turbocharged rivals?
Naturally aspirated V12 engine choice by Aston Martin for their Valkyrie LMH car is unique in a field of turbocharged powerplants. This will be a return to the golden age of motorsport, but leaves us wondering just how competitive it will be in today's endurance racing. They deliver power better and offer better fuel efficiency which is important in long distance events. But naturally aspirated engines can be more predictable in terms of power delivery and may also be more reliable. This will mean the Valkyrie’s V12 will have to work within the limited power output of LMH regulations, which will no doubt negate some of its high revving characteristics. Aston Martin's racing ambitions could either be a masterstroke or a significant handicap with this unique approach to engine design in the LMH class.
Absolutely! The throttle response and power delivery of NA engines are better and more linear. That could be a huge advantage in tight sections and mixed conditions.
