Of course you want maximum efficiency for a race car. More power out of the same amount of fuel means you either get more power for the same amount of fuel, or use less fuel (read: fewer pitstops and/or less weight from fuel).
The AMG Mercedes F1 engine is around 50% efficient, which is a pretty huge achievement. Electric cars are something around 60% efficient.
