Car race or endurance events cannot be compared to that of human ones.
In the former case machine is the subject; and humans are innovating to evolve them to next level.
In the later case, assumption is that all humans are at same level of evolution and race is among equal - ideally marathon and races should be bare bodied and bare foot; but if we are making concessions for comfort, it should not be seen as license to augment human capabilities.
