Long long before that. Kinda since 67 when I was 7

for a fact he did join in the lemans 1965 and totaled due to the gear box overheated to say honestly i still gonna respect Ken for what he has marked since 1966

Carroll Shelby

@@gandapramana7782 Damn right! If it weren't for Shelby, none of those Fords would've won jack squat!

Agree, Ken was cheated by ford. not enough he won both sebreing and Daytona in the GT 40.

Yeah.. Tooo fuckin bad its opposite now

Just watched the movie. Felt bad for Ken Miles. Ford management can suck duck eggs in my opinion.

@@Paiadakine Keep in mind that many creative liberties were taken when they made this movie. Ken Miles actually DID run at the '65 Le Mans.

@@gpdude22 The main thing I took from it was how anti-Semitic the Ford motor company was. They really hated Jews, which probably also means that they hated black and trans people too.

nintendo9231889 it’s right hand drive

why was the no2 ford car painted black and silver ? that was the racing colours of new zealand which carol shelby ordered done out of respect for the 2 drivers of no2 ford bruce mclaren NZ chris amon NZ

...except the part where they gloss over the whole point of the movie, how the car's design couldn't have been competitive without Ken Miles' input, how no ford would have beaten the last remaining Ferrari without Ken Miles forcing the Ferrari's driver to push the Ferrari car past it's limit and break down by out driving the Ferrari, and how Ken Miles actually had to slow down to let the other fords catch up. Basically, Ken Miles rightfully won that race for ford three different ways and ford wouldn't even give him credit so I gotta disagree about the first class doco point. I'd say that was a low class move by ford. I mean it's a ford documentary, so as fun as it was to watch, it's obviously biased. It's just good those points were finally made in a meaningful way.... and the movie turned out great - probably the best car/racing flick of all time.

Not historically accurate though. Enzo wasn't even there. Liberties were taken to make a more interesting movie. I'm cool with that but not everyone was at odds with each other to the degree that is depicted in the movie.

@@TheAstrojoe62 agreed, yes, it was a bit like Apollo 13. Liberties were taken to improve the drama which didn't happen in real life - for example the scene where the 3 astronauts started going at each other's throats as to who caused the major oxy tank explosion. According to Jim Lovell it never happened. Same deal in the Ford/Ferrari movie... the Ferrari's were completely out of the hunt by 3am, all gone, kaput. There was no great dice with Bandini for the lead. And indeed it was Bruce McLaren who was leading handsomely going into Hour 21 who voluntarily slowed to make the dead heat happen. Miles caught him and refused to slow down, creating an artificial lead for himself. Once you know that, you can understand why Miles slowed down in the final hour and then deliberately hit the picks with 100m to the finish and let Bruce go across the line clearly in first place by 2 car lengths. They were all Shelby-American teammates, and Miles and McLaren drove in the same GT40 Mark II in the 1965 race. And that was an inaccuracy in the film too. Miles was never punted for 1965, he raced in 65 and 66. He was on extremely good terms with Bruce McLaren.

@@ivanjulian2532 right. I think what we forget in cinema is that it is a visual story telling medium. Visuals often have to speak where dialog would take too long so we get things like them having a fist fight or Enzo being at the track physically. Plus there is a story being told and day to day life rarely has a nice neat beginning, middle and an end. My hope is they catch the essence of the men and the event not the literal historic event itself. I understand that going in and it usually drives me to find the real story. Both I find fascinating and enjoy.

Good story, but historical accuracy? Nope.

good job on that spoiler snowden

Cool! But you were lucky, I had to wait 90 days or so and read about it in R&T. I must admit, those printed articles were magical. I love video but a well written description does wonders for the imagination.

SteamKing2160-spot on about Ken Miles and amen. More than anyone, Miles engineered and then drove the GT40 to victory. He followed orders, got screwed, dutifully went back to work and then got killed 60 days later while advancing the same cause. He gets so little credit or recognition. He was a man amongst men........

Here is me thinking it was Bruce McLaren & Chris Amon who won the race...

@@MBCGRS only because of the most technical of technicalities

@@gokaisilver3801 Mate watch the entire last lap. Its on KZfaq. Miles lets McLaren lead cause he knew he was running second.. Ford robbed Miles of a chance to race McLaren to the end. It was Fords idea to slow McLaren and have the tied finish. Giving Miles the triple crown and McLaren the win. Everybody happy. But they messed up the rule... Dont think Miles was in front. He wasn't... Chris Amon wrote in Motorsport magazine (June 2007) that without FORD interference thay would have EASILY won...

No,Ford slowed McLaren...Ken Miles WON LeMans...PERIOD!!!?

Best film I think

@@Antoha2724 Its atleast my top5 movies. Everything was just so damn perfect and the acting was great!

Bloody Heaven!

it would have been the Ferrari P3 in 1966. The P4 was introduced in 1967.

radlettblue n

I never really liked the look of the p4. But, some do, so that's all that matters. ;)

Ferrari DRILLED those Yankee back in Daytona '67!!

Those seconds to run to the cars hurt Miles. History was pretty much set down by many as one version, the Miles won version, and it was stolen from him by McLaren.

The first Ford GT finished 18th in 2016.

@@Aotearoa_Kiwi overall, but won the GTE Pro class, which is the top class for GTE cars.

@@ColinLenznerD1337 Sure understand that, however 1966 was a race win. 2016 was only a class win. Excellent result, but not quite the same as overall victory. Would like to see a Ford victory again in the future, but that could only happen if Le Mans resorts to GT classes only.

@@Aotearoa_Kiwi Well if the name of the game was "Ford can build a sports car that can win LeMans", to me it's a win. Even Ferrari didn't have a LMP car running for them.

@@eriksantoso1741 Thanks bro

Also winner of the 1966 Indianapolis 500, and 1972 Le Mans.

Ford wanted all three cars to finish together so it would make a great photo (it did) and sell a bunch of cars. The Le Mans judges didn’t appreciate Ford’s publicity stunt so they ruled McLaren had won because he started further back in the grid and thus covered the greater distance during the race. It was a bs move by the french FIA. They didn’t like the rude Americans winning their precious race. It wasn’t Ford’s fault.

just like in the movie lol

@@robertl955 yeah they showed it in the movie as wel/

Absolutely correct. Chris often told that story, and even Denny Hulme confirmed that the #2 McLaren/Amon was the true winner. And Ken Miles knew that he was running second. Why else would he position his car in second place during the last lap (see 24.40 onwards), and allow McLaren to lead to the finish line.

Miles was backing off from what I see, down that final shot from the helicopter. The fact is he did not slow down & passed the guys that did. It also looks like he slows just before the line Bruce’s speed was constant. Bruce, Chris & Dennis Hulme were 3 formidable drivers.thats why they were driving Shelby’s cars. Denny was the 1967 F1 World Champion for goodness sake not some second rate driver, hired on the cheap. Denny & Bruce dominated the Can Am series until Bruce was killed. This is wrong there should be a statement put out on the film that there were team orders put out around 11 am telling the cars to slow down which was either missed or ignored by Ken Miles. Bruce McLaren had a family imagine being dragged through this.after all these years.

Dyler Classic & Sports Cars for Sale I’ve been a die hard just NASCAR fan, but I find Le Mans and especially the FvF penile measuring contest the most amazing story in all of Motorsport. How glad I am to have given those “fruity European (no offense)” Motorsports another chance.

Fuck McLaren, he should have given the trophy to Miles

Look up the interview with chris amon it is on you tube

Not true liar liar pants on fire

I don't know about that. Coming from Carroll Shelby himself, Ken Miles was ahead 1 and a half laps. We don't know who is actually telling the truth. The movie eventually followed Carroll Shelby's story of the events that took place. As told: "Bob Negstad - Senior Project Engineer, Ford Motor Company: “At Le Mans, I was the guy that Jacque Passino sent over to Ken Miles to tell him to back off and let the other guys catch up. Ken got tears in his eyes and said: ‘No, this is my only opportunity to do this and I can’t do that and I won’t do that.’ During the next pit stop, Ken’s co-driver was told to slow down and let the others catch up and Denny did as he was told. It was during this time that Passino sent John Cowley down to the scorer’s and timer’s tower and told them that we had miscredited a lap on Ken’s car and to take a lap away from that car. When the car came in for its final stop, Ken got back into the car and refused to participate in the prescribed finish. That’s why he laid back when the three cars crossed the finish line. Ken was a lap ahead at the finish, that’s true, that’s absolutely, totally, true. He was a lap ahead and Passino and Cowley went down and took the lap away. They absolutely stole that race from Ken and it’s about time that the truth is told, Ken’s memory deserves that.” When I showed this quotation to Carroll Smith and asked for his opinion, he told me “Bob Negstad is one of the most truthful people that I have ever known.” Bob died shortly after this interview was conducted and many of us feel that it was a dying declaration to see justice finally done for his good friend, Ken Miles."
