Best Answer

The efficiency of an engine depends on the quality of the fuel that is injected into it. This is the case with all engines. For example, running a sports car on regular unleaded petrol will effect its efficiency, and by extension, its speed. Cars with higher performance engines (such as F1) normally have much higher RPMs, and therefore potentially higher power. Hope this helps
