[@Lansolot]

Ken Miles was a genius for engineering and driving. There has never been anyone like him since. He won this race, completely robbed of it and passed away before he could win the next 2. The car he helped design was the ONLY American car to ever win Le Mans to this day... 3 years in a row. R.I.P Ken Miles.

[@beagle7622]

Roy Lunn of Kar Kraft designed and built the GT40 MK11, this was shown in the film but the guy was not identified. His name was Roy Lunn . There was a committee headed by a guy called. John Cowley was the head of this group not Leo Bebe ( Bebe was responsible for Marketing) . Shelby & the other 2 team owners were also on that group . Ken Miles was very involved in testing & development, but he didn’t design or build the car from scratch. Finally Shelby ran 3 cars in that race the Number 1, 2 & 3 cars, As for him being a genius maybe but from 1967 through 1970 McLaren built the utterly dominant Can Am cars which dominated that series for years.

[@kadasrichard]

Bruce McLaren built his own cars which dominated Can Am,built his own F1 cars. Miles didn't build the GT40 from scratch. McLaren,Foyt,Gurney were all involved in testing as much as him. Also,McLaren won fair and square. The movie made Leo Beebe a villain. His family even considered suing the movie maker. He had no involment with the finish. Also,Enzo Ferrari wasn't even at the race.

[@gutz1981]

McLaren had no real honour to get up onto that first place podium. I may be speaking on bias because I just saw the movie, but in looking up more about this real event. From what I can see, the movie gets it right in that basically, McLaren did not really have the lead, Miles did. And any real person with a sense of achievement in his or her blood would not hold up that number 1 trophy based on a technicality. Especially one as controversial as this one. Only a loser would think they were the real winner at this point.

[@frequencydecline5250]

I don’t think we’ll ever know really but McLaren is not to blame. And for all he knew he might have been the winner. Miles who suffered at least 3 laps lost due to brake issues might have been down a lap or penalized or something for all he knew. McLaren raced as he was told to. And it’s not like at the end of a race your told you are the winner but then have a chance to personally decide someone else should get it. Problem was Ford trying to do that stupid 360 lap tie. And who knows who decided on it. In some interviews Shelby says he came up with the idea and regretted it. In others he has said it came down from above him. Miles had to lose about 4 laps, 3 which were lost in the pits. Then he had drive super slow. Both him and McLaren said they didn’t want to be second. I’m also not sure where the actual finish line was then, and it may not have been (and likely wasn’t) at the actual checkered flag. The race technically finishes at 24 hours, and distance traveled determines the winner. They weren’t the first to be screwed, not even in that race. (The Alpine 11th/12th place cars had similar issues.) And they weren’t the last....cough cough Toyota.

[@clay9333]

@gutz1981 - I agree with everything you said. Unfortunately, they were all doing what they were told to do. McLaren probably didn’t want to win that way, Miles certainly didn’t want to lose at all... But Ford needed their photographed “F-you” to Enzo Ferrari. It’s a shame.

[@pistolfish8688]

McLaren had no honour? A loser? Seriously? You know what that guy did in motorsport?

[@gutz1981]

@@pistolfish8688 All I know is that if you are a man of fair play and deep down you know that your victory came at some kind of expense of someone else, then you do all you can to make sure the person who LET YOU WIN is recognised or you step down all together. I have met a lot of people who have no problem taking credit or not even acknowledging that someone else gave them what they got. And those people live their lives in a state of delusion where they eventually make an excuse for anything.

[@pistolfish8688]

@Ziarab Hussain My apologies. McLaren was a loser, he was a despicable person for taking this win. They should remove his name from the records. Give it to Miles because he really came first. What a gutless prick McLaren was. Complete Douche. He was fine later on but here he was a disgrace.

[@aaafnraaaaafnraa7869]

t'was good for the cantankerous ken. being a part of a team and acting as a team usually wins championships. builds lifelong bonds with other human beings, etc... but when you have Ken Miles on your team, it is like having Jim Brown at RB, Gordie Howe at RW, Niklas Lidström and Bill Russel on D, Lionel Messi at Striker, Nikola Tesla, Louis Pasteur, Archimedes, argh! I digress. Saddest thing, about Ken Miles untimely death, is the impact to his family(spouse and offspring), the impact to his family(friends, foes, teammates), the impact to the development of automobiles and technology. We All Lost! Engineers cannot test their own designs... That is why they send in the professionals. Testers, Tinkerers, Mechanics, Diag... ken miles won on that racetrack multiple times that day. you don't need a trophy or podium appearance to indicate to oneself that one has 'won'. you do need a job, supporting your livelihood... Everybody already knows that most 'professional racing governing bodies' are corrupt and utterly non-chivalric. look what happened to Ayrton Senna...

styleemusic wait nvm that’s weird I thought you were talking about Ken Miles car

[@pardin_vp6650]

Just watched the Ford V Ferrari movie, and the movie really captured the actual race perfectly!

[@israelmello9204]

Me encantou está história. O filme ficou massa!!!

[@julianv.5848]

AMERICA'S BIGGEST SPORT TRIUMPH IN EUROPE, AND 4 TIMES CONSECUTIVELY ..........HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!

[@cobra3289]

The badge and the engine block was american the rest was british..

[@dravendfr]

Julian V. ‘65 would have been Ford’s too, but Ferrari held sway and made it an all-Italian event.

[@clutchpedalreturnsprg7710]

!967 & 1968 was won by the same car. :)

[@FortMetallica]

this is what happens when ur rich and cant put in work. Enzo did same to ferruccio lamborghini who was also rich and italian, wanted to purchase a ferrari. Enzo said “no!! farm boys dont drive my cars.” This is where lamborghini blended into the supercar industry after manufacturing TRACTORS!! enzo was all talk no walk. Very proud for UK and USA to team up and show him real work on HIS OWN TRACK!! very embarrassing

[@skynet3d]

FortMetallica that's not what happened. Lamborghini had bought a Ferrari, and found it to have a lot of issues, when he had the chance, he let Enzo know it and Enzo told him he knew nothing about cars, that he was just a farmer. That made him so angry that he built a car company just to show Ferrari he could do it better.

"The most splendidly set up set of rules of any race in the world" Ken Miles fans would disagree with you there mate.

[@GabrielVittorio]

ThePeople'sPanzer yes indeed

[@mwrench4185]

Blame his team, not the rules which were clearly stated.

[@davidberelson2925]

To all of you who bought into “Ford vs Ferrari”….it managed to make it appear that Ken Miles drove the 24 Le Mans solo! He happened to have had a superb co-driver, Denny Hulme. THEY could be said to have won. This takes nothing away from KM’s role or driving, and watching him here on the West Coast in his MG Specials, RSK’s, etc. in the 50’s was sheer joy.

[@StrictViperVR]

I’ve seen a GT40 in real life multiple actually and one of them had the 24 hrs of Daytona livery on it and I must say absolutely beautiful car it both looks and sounds amazing

[@jamesreddington2885]

Who else came here after watching Ford v Ferrari?

[@Estebancroki]

Ken miles good men RIP 😭

[@comand0Metalero1]

The BLOODY DOOR WONT CLOSE!!!!

[@sandygilmour5444]

Ken Miles should be awarded that race and triple crown

[@lukemifsud7219]

How could McLaren accept the victory after being demolished by Ken Miles`s performance... and go on to celebrate like he actually won on track. This I don`t get..

[@rajatstudio]

That's nothing. Mike Hawthorn nd Jaguar declined to retire from the race after his mistake caused 84 deaths in 1955 le mans. Merc was leading nd decided to retire, they asked Jaguar to do the same, but victory is victory to some. The way they achieve that victory is of no consequence to them.

[@lukemifsud7219]

@@rajatstudio Wow disgusting if you tell me.

[@NeoclassicalRadagast]

If anyone is interested there's a great documentary about this race called "The 24 Hour War" that shows what happened in a less "Hollywood" way than Ford vs. Ferrari.

[@applescruff1969]

Definitely better than Ford vs. Ferrari in the matter-of-fact way. You wouldn't believe how much that movie got wrong.

I made a tribute video to this street racing it. Not a single hp of the 485hp was wasted on this car. Amazing car for 1966 all motor!
