Johnny Herbert: A proven champion
From Britain's junior karting champion to Formula One winner - Johnny Herbert has always been a rising star in the racing world. In 1987 alone he won five Formula Three races and claimed the championship at his first attempt.
But a shunt at a Formula 3000 race at Brands Hatch led to disaster, when Johnny collided with the barriers and broke both legs. Despite the severity of his injuries, he made his Formula One debut just a few months later - finishing fourth in the 1989 Brazilian Grand Prix.
After a few years out to make a full recovery, Johnny was invited to drive for Mazda in the 1991 Le Mans 24 Hours. His win at this legendary endurance race marked an important first for Mazda. Four years later, he celebrated another impressive victory at the British Grand Prix when, after a virtually error-free drive, he finished in first place.
Since retiring from Grand Prix racing, Johnny has concentrated on sports car events. He recently won the first season of the 2008 Speedcar Series.
Making history: Mazda wins Le Mans
Mazda entered two 787B race cars and one 787 model in the 1991 Le Mans 24 Hour race. The team driving the first Mazda 787B - Volker Weidler, Bertrand Gachot and Johnny Herbert - set impressive times in the qualifying stages, and the other Mazda drivers weren't far behind. It was clear Mazda was more than ready to challenge its rivals.
As the endurance race got underway, the famous Mazda 787B was quick enough to put pressure on the two leading Mercedes. And together, the three drivers made good headway in the final laps.
It paid off when Johnny swept into the top spot to thunderous applause. The 1991 Le Mans race marked the first, and only, win by a Japanese car - and a historic moment for Mazda.
Mazda RX-8 R3: A true sports car
The Le Mans win was the result of years of research and development by Mazda - and this is immediately noticeable once you're behind the wheel of the Mazda RX-8 R3.
Just like the victorious Mazda 787B, the Mazda RX-8 R3 is powered by an award-winning rotary engine, which takes you from 0 to 62mph in an electrifying 6.4 seconds. Power and performance - the true indicators of Mazda sports car pedigree - are abundant in the Mazda RX-8 R3. And don't forget those outstanding driving dynamics and the breathtaking halding capability.
