At the Circuit de la Sarthe, one of the most legendary race tracks in the world, the sound of combustion engines has dominated until now – whether at the traditional 24 Hours of Le Mans for cars or its motorcycle counterpart, the 24 Heures Motos. But a team of students from the Sigma Engineering School in Clermont-Ferrand wants to change that and break new ground with an electric motorcycle.
Yamaha is apparently working on a comprehensive overhaul of the aerodynamics for its super sports bikes, relying on technology that has previously been used primarily in automotive engineering. A new patent for the Yamaha R1 shows active cooling air outlets on the side fairings for the first time, which open or close automatically depending on various parameters. This system is designed to help reduce drag and improve both performance and emissions.
Rubber is a key material in vehicle construction. Whether tires, bushings, seals, or handles—almost every motorcycle part requires elastic components that must withstand heavy loads in everyday use. The problem: Over time, aging and stress cause cracks to form, which can lead to the failure of individual components. This is a known weak point, especially for frequently used parts such as hoses, chassis seals, and rubber bearings.
What was once a barely noticed detail is now a central element of MotoGP technology: aerodynamics. In the past, the focus was on the interaction between the engine, chassis, and tires, but for about a decade now, targeted airflow has had a significant impact on how a motorcycle accelerates, brakes, and corners. At the heart of this development are winglets, spoilers, and air ducts, which not only ensure faster lap times but also have a profound impact on racing.
