yes that was a great time of F1 with ayrton senna and alain prost driving this beast , ppl try to see the senna pole position lap in suzuka onboard on this same car...
@FrenchPropagandaV1RR Actually, the MP4-6 Honda engine did use vtech technology. The term "Vtech" only refers to variable valve timing, and the Honda grand prix engines used in the McLarens during the early 1990s pioneered this technology.
this car was a responce to the renault/elf powefful combination. the renault rs series engine was significantly more effective than honda V10 engine so hond abuilt a v12 and put it on this car bt renaults dominance was stil unshaken, performance wise.
Honda Honda, When are u gonna win again? I mean back in the 90's Ferrari wasn't even close other than in 92 when Prost almost win over Senna. But ever since 93~96 Ferrari was almost in it's darkest ages. I have that feeling Honda is going thru the same stage. And hopefully the nightmare will end soon!
@richrich27. That is correct, the engine on its own was 150kg. Porsche had their V-12 @ 168kg and was too heavy to compete in formula one. The facts were published in the auto course review of 1991.
Senna was actually quite disappointed in the V12 during early tests in 1990. He said it was over-weight and underpowered. Honda did increase power throughout the year and had a cracker of an engine for Suzuka in 1991 (when Mansell was challenging Senna for the title in the Williams-Renault). But, a lot of what these guys below have posted about the Renault V10 is true. It was a more "driveable" engine with excellent low-mid end torque.
it's not impossible you know... it seems Mercedes could be splitting from McLaren and buying Brawn if Honda ever came back in F1, which I hope they do since they are as important to F1 history as any other engine manafacturer, they should come back only as an engine supplier to a top team
This is not the type of engine you can built on your own in a garage. This engine was developed by Honda HQ in Japan and is a one off special, after they invested millions of dollars in R&D, tooling the factory to build this engine by hand. The technology in this engine is beyond mere mortals, and can be lost to future generations if not taught. Formula One is the pinnacle of motorsports. That is why a comment of how to built this motor is out of the question. It can't be done again.
As someone else said. This and the car before it were the best F1 cars in the last 25 years. Nowadays its all pussy....What a sound from that majjic Honda V12. Best engine......beats what the italians and germans can make....
This is the Honda Ra 121 E, 60° V 12 Engine, 3.5 litres, 48 valves, about 710 BHP at 13.000 rpm What do you need to build a similar engine? A lot of money.... :) Try to ask in some Mechanical Engineer University for more information.

Let me tell you......... If you've never seen and heard these cars up close, you'll have NO idea how crazy loud they are...!! Watch a race without ear protection and I can guarantee your ears are numb, all day long........ Stay too close for too long and you may even have permanent hearing damage...!!
didn't mere mortals build it? Just slanty eyed mortals but I'm pretty sure they'd already have improved this if they could still run turbo v12's in F1 and Honda had a team. But it could be done.
Nostalgy F1 sound. I love it :)
Honda - The best F1 engines
Honda - The Best BIKES
MUGEN POWER!!!!
This car didn't need that much downforce. The weight of Senna's and Berger's balls kept the car on the track.
3.5 liter V12 Honda Model RA121E. 780 HP @ 14,800 RPM. Weight: 150 KG
beastly sound in the higher rev regions , amazing
What a moonnsster!!
The sound that F1 brings nowadays just sucks compared to these v10 and v12 beasts!!
Good times!
yes that was a great time of F1 with ayrton senna and alain prost driving this beast , ppl try to see the senna pole position lap in suzuka onboard on this same car...
「大きい音が出ます。驚かないで下さい。」って言った
MC本人が一番ビックリしてどうすんのよｗ
Fantástico, parabéns fico muito feliz, algumas façanha da honda, tecnologia de ponta uma, mecânica perfeita.

i would give anything to take a lap in that car, even if they limit the speed to 60... RIP Ayrton Senna
MP4/6 1991..... beauty!!!
The tour guide that steps back in fear of that angry engine sound, that just kills me!!! : D
coswor yhonda los mejores motores de la hitoria del automovilismo
The last years before computers started running everything. Such a beautiful manual maniacal sound.
sounds better than the ferrari v12 imo , i just love this sound when he revs it up
you are completely right. that car without that helmet does not look the same. but still one of the best f1 ever, if not the very best
Stright up

OMFG , like a real beast
Exactly, the Honda F1 engine had a great forced wail to it. Search for senna suzuka qualifying.

hehe that sound @ 6.34 where he's blipping the throttle a bit gives goosebumps :p

wow....amazing.
今の技術でV12が2万回転まで回ったらいったいどんな音になるんだろうか？
いつの日かそんな日が来るといいな。
Honda will come back, for sure.
wow what a car, i was sitting on a mclaren mp4/6
2:44 sounds like the bloke holdin the camera jizzes his pants lol!!!
Senna mclaren and this great Honda v12 could beat the driver aided cars
Mclaren, bring back Honda for advice and engine supplier if they go back to Turbo engnines in 2014.
under load, the ferrari v12 is melodious, but the honda motor has a savagery that the ferrari (imo) doesn't match
A melhor parceria Honda é mclaren
6:50. When everyone's ears start to bleed
v-12 power :)
@MDXSTER hopefully with Mclaren when their deal with Mercedes runs out.
it's not impossible you know...
it seems Mercedes could be splitting from McLaren and buying Brawn
if Honda ever came back in F1, which I hope they do since they are as important to F1 history as any other engine manafacturer, they should come back only as an engine supplier to a top team
You had no Idea how right you were..
The McLaren of that era was beautiful. Anyone know the year I'd guess '89. Great upload :-)
91. Saw it racing at Interlagos.
My granny's wheel chair has that engine.

yes, i think prost was driving for ferrari then
i would agree, the engine wasnt as good as the renault v10 of that era, infact i think honda went backwards going towards a v12
the only vtech that is rather fast
2cv on behind!!

can you imagine if they damaged the plastic bonnet? I mean there's gotta be no way to replace that.
I want that car .... T_T
and they get paid to do this...! I want that job!
shatup and fire it up!
Is it the 1.5 liter turbo engine on that Mclaren?
I see this video and think only one thing: HONDA powered by SENNA
this strip is better than a 18 years old teen strip
to watch classic f 1 races check out classicgrandprixclub
The best thing the Japanese ever did.
@solunasunrise Berger's one
I wonder how all of these cars made it through the earthquake..
Prost never drove this car
1991 gerhard berger's car
it is very obvious you know why honda chose a v12, we would like to know.
is that sennas car ??
@LiberatorWaveV1 That Honda POWERRR hasn't been doing much good on the racetracks in cars or bikes...

軽四より軽いのに、軽四のエンジン幾つ分って言う化け物で、且世界一安全な車。３００㎞から一気にスピード落とせるのは脅威。
Probably 1-2 million US
didn't mere mortals build it? Just slanty eyed mortals but I'm pretty sure they'd already have improved this if they could still run turbo v12's in F1 and Honda had a team. But it could be done.
v12 rulez
HUGH G RECTION!
i think the mp4/4 was better personally
It was better....fact.
