Who's side would you be on? Ford or Ferrari?
Ford
Ummm, Aston Martin.
Ferrari
I think ford
Ford
I somehow miss these little "history lessons" very much. The three of them are always very good at getting the story across.
I agree, the Senna documentary was pure goosebumps
@@julrudbor True, and 83' Audi Quattaro vs Lancia 037 battle was simply the best.
@@greggstomlettes That one was my favorite! Hot Wheels put out die cast cars of those with great paint and rubber wheels. I bought those because of the story they told on the Grand Tour. GAWD I wish they would go back to the studio format someday.
@@julrudbor Yeah, and Hammond's Jim Clark feature was pure class. I love these little bits, it really shows off these three fellas' love of motoring trivia.
Mate I swear they made me cry over the passing of the Ford Mondeo. When they turn on the reverence it's a thing to behold.
My wife and I are both violin makers. She is Italian and I am American. We keep models of a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO next to a Shelby Cobra. That’s our little ‘Ford vs. Ferrari’ in our violin shop. ❤️
Wholesome ❤️
Thats pretty cool :-)
I love that 😊
Thats lovely ❤️
that's pretty neat
James May storytelling skills are superb!!!
The richard storytelling was good as well
Tf he is a journalist what did u think he was a guy who just says cock
@@deveshshah2963 You need help, you really do.
@@excitonknight140 agreed, they are both excellent. I had goosebumps when he did a tribute for Jim Clark.
As for Clarkson, I had goosebumps as well when he did the introduction of the Excellent.
@@excitonknight140 Agreed
These Historical car racing stories are just pure gold, but nothing beats the, "Lancia vs Audi Quattro" story as told by Jeremy Clarkson. A pure PHD in strategic management.
Yes, this is a serious claim and no exaggeration.
DOES ANY1 HAVE LINK 2 THAT 🤔?
@@1972BoNeZ666 not too hard to find it on youtube...
This is arguably James May's best ever segment, across both Top Gear and The Grand Tour
Top Gear never really gave him the space to do this. The running joke was always that May was boring.
@@reanetsemoleleki8219 That is just a joke and nothing more. That joke is still going on now at The Grand Tour btw. Also, The Grand Tour doesn't only have the three presenters, a lot of the producers came with them as well. So if they didn't want to give him that space at Top Gear like you say why would they then give it to him at The Grand Tour?
And he most definitely did get that space at Top Gear. They did a 2 season mini series called "James May's Cars of the People" which is him being exactly like he is in this Ford vs. Ferrari clip.
That pretty bold though... I mean he has made some seriously outstanding television
Ya all based on his cultural bias of a story he's been force fed the "british" truth on all his life. He's a fucking shill for a failed people in covid zombieland
I have to agree - I've showed this bit to non-car people and they're stunned. I get so hype every time I see it. The story is just so legendary.
I know the real story behind the race in '66 and the development of the GT40, and just saw 'Ford v, Ferrari' this weekend. Superb film. As a cinema fan I appreciate the needs of condensing the story and making clearly defined characters so the film is cohesive. But even knowing where it was wrong and the technical failures such as tracks not looking right and glowing hot metal being handled bare handed five minutes later, I found the film very well done and enjoyable. All that being said I'd prefer a 12 hour long film about it written and dircted by James May.
Nolan is a master at taking the essential details and then building a great story around it.
Five minutes is plenty of time to cool metal that was previously glowing. People who work metal, my younger self included, have much more calloused hands that can withstand much higher temperatures and also have higher pain thresholds due to repetition than average people.
@@negativeindustrial seriously? I got a "I'm tough" story AND a lesson in the cooling rates of ferrous metal? Well, people like me, who have given themselves stitches, and who have also had to remove a wheel drum off a car that had locked brake shoes, found that the drum could be handled without gloves if a person is a moron.
@@bbb462cid
I love how personally you chose to take it. Thank you.
@@negativeindustrial by "personally" you mean you were able to masturbate over it.
One of the best history flashbacks ever in both top gear and grand tour!
So a lie to you is best huh.
Always a pleasure to hear James. I'm not sure if he intentionally abbreviated the Ford/Ferrari initial meeting(s) story or is unaware of the actual history. I met Roy Lund mere days before his relatively recent death. We discussed the meetings with Enzo. There were actual two meetings. The first meeting was the technical team that went over with he as their engineering head. All went well in that initial meeting and Ford then sent over the accountants and so-called "suits". That, of course, was the end of the deal.
I'd love a collection of just these historical/retrospective films. As great as the adventuring and comedy are.. these films are legitimately some of the best work they've ever done.
Comedy is all this was
Maybe when they get too old for the road trips they'll shift to mini documentaries
need more of James' perspective on this story. this was a great teaser. we need to hear the rest of it!
James May's the best person to describe the classic cars 👍
David vs Goliath:
David:
- world class drivers
- millions invested in few years
- 8 cars
- 20 t of spares
Goliath:
- the driver left
- bankruptcy
- 3 cars
- 5 wheels
- a spring
- Mario the plumber
Basically Ford had to learn how to build proper cars, thanks to Ferrari.
Doesn’t Goliath lose
@@x-90
Ferrari is the Goliath in this instance.
@@Khan-ts2ji but they won?
@@oscarmico3353 Ford has been building proper cars since 1903, he was one of the main founders and innovators of motor industry.
What are you talking about??
Considering Ford's treatment of Aston Martin I think Ferrari dodged a bullet there.
I don't even like Ferrari but would still be on their side.
Ford's approach is a bit like a billionaire owning a football team and just throwing loads of money at it until they win the championship.
I will admit that the GT40 is easily one of the coolest cars ever seen at Le Mans.
My word. Ford was the Abramovich of Le Mans. They just bought what they needed - little to no home grown talent.
So ... sorta like the Glazers and Man U?
Yes. Or PSG, City. Dominating football because sugar daddy is forking up millions buy the best players
Ford did nothing wrong to Aston Martin.
@@Sovspot Ford literally copied Aston Martins iconic grille and applied it to their cars after breaking off the partnership claiming that they had a right to it since they owned AM for a while.
The full doc James and everyone did on this is probably my favorite video part yall have done.
Fun Fact: Slough is the location of “The Office”.
They chose it because they couldn’t imagine a place more boring
hmm
Slough
Come friendly bombs and fall on Slough!
It isn't fit for humans now,
There isn't grass to graze a cow.
Swarm over, Death!
Come, bombs and blow to smithereens
Those air -conditioned, bright canteens,
Tinned fruit, tinned meat, tinned milk, tinned beans,
Tinned minds, tinned breath.
@@youngster30uk Still one of the most astute observations on post-war Britain, and applies as much today, as then.
@@youngster30uk this is 🔥 is it a ww2 reference?
Slough Trading Estate was also where Thunderbirds was made.
Bit of irony they had Captain Slow do a docu on one of the fastest cars ever. I really do enjoy anything he does.
I think because the close relation of James May with Ferarri, there's no way you can drive old Ferarri race car without a close relationship with them
Finally a new favorite rivalry. I'm tired of rewatching Clarkson's favorite one.
Does it involve Senna and Lauda?
@@RatelHBadger Audi v Lancia
@@Sankrityayan07 All of the lads like that rivalry though. They are Lancia fanboys.
I already watched the full documentary on the Grand Tour but I just had to rewatch it here
These were the best parts of the Grand tour for me. Loved the car stories.
Crazy how most of the time this saga gets framed as an underdog story, when in reality it was a massive corporation throwing vast resources into a project purely stomp the little guy out of spite.
American marketing through hollywood
it's also a fight between a company that has expertise in winning Le Mans and one that has never competed in it
Exactly!
@@dhio9615 Ferrari had been winning because everyone at the company including Enzo were personally involved in the project and had been operating on shoestring budgets to put together whatever they could. Ferrari wasn't always the company that we see it as today. They were winning, yes. But they were also the underdog when you consider the limited resources they had to work with.
Meanwhile Ford had basically all the money in the world when it came to car industry.
@@ijustfelldown I know but Ferrari has over 40 years experience in racing in 1965
Ford GT is easily one of the most beautiful cars ever built.
A billion dollar company throwing all its money to beat a small Italian manufacturer that sold cars to afford racing. And still couldn't make a car as beautiful as the 330 P4.
Not even close, that thing looks like a sc- fi b movie prop, that Italian abomination that is
Honestly I don't understand why Ford is so praised... this like saying that Jeff Bezos started a company in order to compete against a local shop(only because they didn't wanted to sell at his conditions) and, surprisingly, won.
This rivalry is the win of money over experience and know-how which IMHO isn't something we should cheer...
Yours is a very European perspective..
You are undermining the extraordinary achievements of Shelby, Miles, Wyer and many many others.
@@flyingtigers7856 You still forgot McLaren, Bruce McLaren
@@flyingtigers7856 I'm not undermining their work but is much easier with that type of financial support. Let's remember that Ford was one of the biggest (if not the biggest) company in the biggest market back then while Ferrari was just starting to become something more then a garage full of artisans and mechanics.
@@flyingtigers7856 Exactly, "many many others" with unlimited funds. Even today in F1, Ferrari are the Garagistas compared to the resources of Mercedes, Honda and Renault
let's not forget that ford only "won" 66 and 67 ;-)
the 68 and 69 winning "GT40"s were not really Ford (except the now smaller Ford 4.9L engine core of course) they were made from "John Wyer Automotive Engineering Ltd." in Slough, England ,
search for: GT40P/1075 (Mk I)
John Wyer Automotive Engineering Ltd was the original maker of the GT40 mkI and at 1966 he took over the Ford Advanced Vehicles facility at Slough and made some derivatives of that mkI model now named "Mirage M1"
they bought the rights to racing the "GT40" in 1968 , they made 2 new cars and rebuild a Mirage as GT40/1074 to go and race at le mans.
so there you have it...only the first 2 wins had any REAL ford involvement ,wait what?? you actually believe that? actually carol Shelby re-build the british made mkI and went on to win le mans 2 times, ford was just...a name....
With all the hell Jeremy, James and Richard have been through, I think they deserve an episode that's dedicated to giving them the best time they could possibly have. Like, let them agree on their their top 5 favorite race tracks in the entire world, then let them each pic their top 5 favorite cars of all time, then send the three of them to each track where one of their top 5 cars will be waiting for them. Then let them spend the day at each one just racing each other and having fun. After everything they've given us, they deserve an episode that's all about them.
What hell have they been through?
@@RatelHBadger each other, mostly
? They are TV presenters lmao????? Relax. They arent soldiers or veterans. They ARE funny and good comedians, but relax lol
@@hxuanpham Lol, indeed, though in the case of Hammond, it's also the universe, cause it apparently keeps trying, and failing, to kill him.

By far and away, my most favourite Grand Tour 'history/motorsport' feature.
The best of The Grand Tour solo segments, followed by Richard’s Jim Clark tribute and Clarkson’s Audi vs Lancia documentary
I liked the "history lessons" the most, I miss them very much and in a perfect world the three of them would do a separate car history show
I love this stuff, and the boys do this stuff well.
This is a great story. Someone should make a movie about it! 😂
everyone needs to remember that ford was not an underdog, Ferrari was experienced but they beat them with sheer resources, money and talent.
Too true, little old Ferrari dominates motorsport for decades and and as soon as someone beats then they make a film about it.. Le Mans, Le Mans 66, Grandprix, Rush. Imagine if there was a film made each time Ferrari won
@@mikezappa Rush wasn't really a "Ferrari VS"-movie. It was about Niki Lauda and James Hunt, i.e the two drivers. Both driving for top-tier teams (Ferrari and McLaren).
@@LAG09 You have to admit that Ferrari is the common denominator, and in any case, my point is no less valid
@@mikezappa Rush really doesn't fit in there as driving for Ferrari provided Lauda no advantage over Hunt at McLaren. It was just the sheer guts of Hunt against the methodical nature of Lauda.
@@LAG09 exactly. Rush was more about Hunt trying to prove he could win a World Championship with pace and aggressiveness instead of Lauda’s consistency. It wasn’t a McLaren v Ferrari movie.
Somehow i love this kind of Atmosphere
It fits perfectly well to The Grand Tour vibes
Do I know the story? Yes. Do I watch it every time it pops up anyway? Yes.
Hollywoods was like: write that down!! write that down!!!!
The new heritage edition GT that just came out is that white and black paint scheme like the one shown in this video. It’s me absolute favorite heritage they’ve come out with, just so simple and absolutely gorgeous. THATS the one I’d want.
Is there a longer clip available? It ended prematurely!
Be honest who watched this before seeing the film Ford V Ferrari last year?
Yes I did.
It was 11PM. I am not going to watch the movie in the cinema ever again, as it was my last chance. The movie stunned me for how a movie of racing cars could never be this good. It goes beyond than just cars and passion, beyond the limitation of time, and yet still grounded to 7000RPM.
Amazing.
How dare the grand tour TH-cam channel remind me how much I miss the old episodes.
Re; the meeting with HFII and Enzo, I've read that Enzo had already lined up his deal with Fiat so didn't care about the Ford offer.
To be totally honest, Ford would have watered down the brand into sedans anyway.
James May,
You skipped the part about FORD Buying the already designed and built race cars from British manufacturer, LOLA Cars Limited. FORD Proceeded to purchase two LOLA MK6's from LOLA CARS. The two cars became the test bed for the later renamed
FORD GT. 😉
Lola Cars Limited is a British automobile manufacturer founded in 1958 by Eric Broadley in Bromley, England. The company is now owned by Till Bechtolsheimer, which he purchased in 2022. Lola Cars endured for more than fifty years to become one of the oldest and largest manufacturers of racing cars in the world.
I miss shows with James May, I'm specifically thinking of Toy Stories.
If you need a dose of James, you can always check out Oh Cook! and Our Man in Japan on Prime Video. th-cam.com/video/NfdpR_wx1lU/w-d-xo.html Enjoy!
@@thegrandtour Oh yeah, the Japan one! I'd forgotten about that, thank you for reminding me. 😁👍
The "take the racing away from enzo" part was missing in ford vs ferrari. Seems a bit biased.
this is the best story
This feels like a classic Top Gear sequence, love it! 👍👍👍
That simple "Non ci siamo" is the most Enzo thing Enzo could have in fact ever said ahahaah🇮🇹😂
This is the sort of content I miss from these guys. It's now only really done on Top Gear and although Chris Harris does them really well (see the Sir Stirling Moss tribute), they're not quite the same as the golden trio doing them.
Enzo Ferrari sells cars to earn the money needed to race.
Ford wanted to race to sell more cars.
Just across the street where James is standing @ 1:50 is the location of what was to become Century 21 Studios where Gerry Anderson created and filmed "Thunderbirds".
When I finally got to watch Ford vs Ferrari, I was mentally comparing what happened in the movie to what James said in his story to see how far off the mark the movie makers were.
biggest reason i buy prime video, very nice show. thanks gentlemen!
Story time with James May !! 😁
I really wish they did more documentary style segments on motoring history
We want more of James May's history lessons :)
I am happy that I live in slough just because of this car
One of the best Wars we humans have ever had. As far as I'm aware, no one lost their life. Could be wrong on that, but you get my point. But it was a good war!
rest in peace Ken Miles - one of the greatest we'll ever see
So from what James May sead the Ford GT40 was made in England for a company in Slough not in America for Carroll Shelby
1:53... James ?? What's with the Clown shoes ? ;-) Interesting segment.
Great clip… want so much more of this story James May 🤓❤️
You can check out the full story in Season 1 Episode 6
@@thegrandtour You guys need to add the season and episode of the clips u upload on TH-cam in description always
It wasn’t until 3 years later that ford managed to succeed Ferrari by winning the 1966 Le Mans race with the late Ken miles at the wheel
And they completed the 1966 Le Mans race 1-2-3 clean sweep
I didn't know Hammond was the test crash driver for the ford back in the sixties!!!!
Time traveling hamsters. What a sight to behold!
@@RoScFan yep hamsters get everywhere they are the future past of technology mine power all my computers!
"... he is not going to be driving."
"And on that terrible disappointment, its time for them to end"
Although Ferrari was obviously an arrogant SOB. Ford was worse by a long way. So pleased they did not merge. Ferrari will always be Ferrari and the worlds Sports Car. Ford will always be "Fix Or Repair Daily"
Love this. Highly recommend the movie that was made about it too. And the documentary of the movie is very good also.
What’s the Italian way you say?
Say, “That’s no good” to a $16M contract and go eat lunch…
No need to watch the 2hr movie on this. James summed it up perfectly! 👏🏻
Hands up - who wishes James May was their teacher in school?
“Oh, good for you!” - Christian Bale
Did Jezza ever see the film? He loves Carole Shelby.
Ford went on to win all 3 places on the podium.
The REAL hero story is how a group of privateers in converted road cars with little hand built, idiosyncratic V12's and no factory backing held off the might of Ford international and their fleet of monster race cars for YEARS.
1:40 order '66
Plus the year 1966 when this story happened makes your joke better !
@@Silver-o1hthat exactly what made it a joke in the first place haha
All three know how to present these stories. Controlling the voice in a way that they are informative, but not monotonous with a boring attitude or way too jumpy and happy like on the modern top gear or a lot of TH-cam car people. Editing as well favors this story brilliantly

Get him on CBeebies
@@thegrandtour his narrating skill is so smooth i can listen 🎧 all day along
There will never be a show like this again when Jeremy may and Hammond finally go into the sunset. I just don’t see chemistry, repeating itself like this ever again. I have watched every show multiple times with my two young sons who are avid car fans.I’ve had to do some tactful editing due to some content but overall it’s a pretty clean show and very funny while you’re getting all the information about every vehicle in a way that makes remember it all.
Let's go and eat.
I like this type of video please do more the grand tour
And yet, when Ford entered the GT40s the first time, the writing was on the wall at Modena: 'They're coming for us'. Even worse for them, was losing the GT category that year, to Ford powered Cobras. A sign of what was to come. After the '66 through '69 dominance of Ford, and then two years of Porsche 917 kicking their asses, Ferrari abandoned the prototype sports car racing forever, to focus solely on F1. It was the end of little companies being a dominant force in sports car racing, with McLaren giving way to Porsche, too, in the Can-Am challenge racing cup in America.
Ahaha, your hater comment makes Ferrari to looke like the forever loser vs Ford and everyone else the forever winners. Come on, be real.
Le Mans was so awesome back in the day.
May was just a we lad of 60, during that great time in moto history.
? He's only 59 now... but yes, he is looking older than his years with that long grey hair.
Love it. "Ford turned up with an army of suits." 😂
Ferrari did win over and over again thereafter including in 2019 with the 488 GTE and they never mention that right after Ford won at Le Mans Ferrari paid back at Ford's home in Daytona by taking the top three positions in the race!
Ford won at Le Mans 2 more times after their first 1,2,3 victory at Le Mans. It didn't matter after. They beat Ferrari at his game, even with Ferrari bringing the GT38 with for that year. Ford simply didn't care about Daytona. They just wanted to beat Ferrari at Le Mans.
Regardless if Ford won, Ferrari wonbthe constructors championship and on top of that best Ford on home soil, Daytona. In a 1,2,3.
But at tge end, tbh, the true winner us always Ferrari, a small little company in North Italy naking the biggest car manufacturer spend millions just to beat them on track.
They needed the help if English engineers, who I always going amazing never had a brand to beat a small Italian company in Ferrari, considering Itsly was destroyed in the war and England not!
And ofcourse they cared about Daytona, the whole grid was full of Ford's, so stop finding excuses😂😂😂 and on American soil.
@@Happy-wb8gi Then there was this little American company called Shelby American who went over to Europe and was beating Ferrari's rear end, in fact in 1964 Enzo Ferrari begged the FIA to cancel the last race of the season because Shelby's cars were beating the Ferraris so bad that if the last race had been run Shelby American would have likely become the champion they were so much better than the Ferraris but due to Enzo Ferrari getting the last race canceled that gave Ferrari a very hollow championship.
Shelby American via Alan Mann racing went on to kick Ferraris rear ends in 1965 with the Daytona Coupes, so you can park your little tiny Ferrari BS, Ferrari was like the giant company compared to Shelby American.
@@mustangecoboosthpp3869 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@CombatIneffective Enzo Ferrari's "game" was F1. Ford were actually racing against American privateers in the Ferraris.
It's good to hear stories from someone who was actually there 😂
It's amazing what you can achieve when you really put in an effort to build something special and yet after their unimaginable success, after all these years with tons of money and people at their disposal, the best they have going for them after two models of the GT is a pickup truck. Ferrari is now a different level altogether. Love this story and those famous stars in the movie have a prancing horse in their collection....LOL
Ford GT won Le Mans again with the eco Boost V6 GT. This wasn't long ago. I'm sure you know that if you follow those things. Some people just can't help themselves with sneering down all the time. I'm guessing you're European.
May didn't mention what sparked Fords anger to begin building the GT40. Ferrari felt insulted, insulted ford & their cars & said Henry Ford the 2nd was NOT his legendary father. This infuriated ford.
WIN OR LOSE, ferrari.
one of the best TG films
The story is a lot less epic when you realise, it's the biggest car company in the world with an unlimited budget against a tiny Italian workshop.
exactly... yet Ferrari is portrayed as the behemoth manufacturer. Oy vey, yanks....
Ford was not then the biggest auto company in the world, GM was. Ford has not been the largest auto maker since the days of the Model T and the Model A.
What is not said here is the British version was never competitive, the program was also moved over to Shelby American for 1965 and when Shelby American was done there was very little left that was part of the original design, the 1966 Ford GT40 MKII was nothing like the original British version of the car. Ken Miles and Shelby American chopped, cut and rebuilt the cars to make them winners. In fact when Shelby American received the cars they were in poor condition. The 1967 Ford GT40 MK IV was all American.
The original design came from Dearborn copied from a Lola MK6 GT, the MKII was largely the same but modified to cope with the bigger engine. The car that won Le Mans twice was a JWR modified MK I .
I’ve seen the movie Ford vs. Ferrari.
It was actually really good, and it set up the rivalry between Ferrari and Ford very well.
It's far from boring its actually a very good and interesting movie
@Tobias de Oliveira I enjoyed it very much, definitely worth a watch.
@Tobias de Oliveira well the movie isn't all that bad, but it is NOT historically accurate ,just keep that in mind.
They very much gave the events the Hollywood treatment, but as long as you don't treat it like a historical documentary it's a decent watch.
@Tobias de Oliveira I don't care for motor racing (outside of gaming) and I only watched it for the cast. It was a thoroughly entertaining movie with great performances and a great story. It definitely wasn't boring, so as you already had an interest in it, I think you'll like it too.
Nice one, Enzo. Also, it is not well known (because the Americans claim they did it, well, the engine was American tbh) but the GT40 was basically a Lola. That’s English btw 😎
Basically a Ford which beat Ferrari wasn't actually a Ford
American V8
What a great story and only one that May could tell
Ah the classic underdog tale of the owner of a massive American corporation being slighted by the owner of a small, financially failing Italian company and then sinking millions upon millions of dollars into a slapdash racing program to get revenge. It warms the heart.
Also, the movie was amazing, I love James May and the GT40 is my favorite car of all time (don’t @ me bro).
But sometimes you just gotta sit back and realize how ridiculous the whole situation is, ya know?
Nice narration !! you guys now should also make a documentary type videos of famous incidence happened in motor sports, and present it with your own lens and prospective :P you can probably divide it james supporting Ferrari n Clakson supporting the Ford etc ... :)
Porsche! 917 ended Ford and Ferrari debate for 21 years. That’s the bigger story, and why people lust after Porsche.
Lancia vs Audi is even better.
More James May!
More James May!
Carroll Shelby = Texas GOAT, just like Buddy Holly and Stevie Ray Vaughan.
where is the next chapter !? love ur vids
Ford was a bunch of pompous suits and they still are a terrible company. They never deserved the honor of the Ferrari name or racing.
