- Ford announced today it is returning to one of the most prestigious automobile races in the world with its new Ford GT race car, based on the all-new ultra-high-performance supercar that goes on sale next year.
The Ford GT race car will compete in the 24 Hours of Le Mans - referred to by many as the Grand Prix of Endurance and Efficiency - starting next year. Revealed today at the famous circuit in Le Mans, France, Ford GT will compete in the Le Mans GT Endurance class for professional teams and drivers (LM GTE Pro).
The new race car - a further proof point of Ford innovation - is based on the all-new Ford GT supercar unveiled in January. Both the production car and race car will arrive in 2016 to mark the 50th anniversary of Ford GT race cars placing 1-2-3 at the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans. Ford went on to repeat its victory at Le Mans in 1967, 1968 and 1969.

Us older guys that lived the first Ford GT era, have been waiting a long time for this.
Indeed. I was born in 1959 and love the original GT40. The 2005 version was pretty bad ass too. But now that they are returning to Le Mans, I'm going to get tickets next year.
Damn you're old men on TH-cam I respect you guys
+cakraft24
Daytona was a practice run, to get us ready for the big show at Le Mans. I hope they figured out most if not all of the gremlins going forward. Must have had a British guy helping with the electronics on this......
+cakraft24 The truth is most racing tech comes from England. All F1 teams are based in England and the Ford GT will be built by Multimatic England while the street version will be built in Markham, Ontario Canada also by Multimatic. Multimatic also builds the Aston Martin Vulcan street and race car.
+Bob White The truth is when we REALLY want it done right, we do it ourselves. Just like the first FordGT project. The Brits made a mess of it, then Holman and Moody with Shelby straightened it out. Auto Tech in the US is second to none.
Am I the only one who caught the horse at the end? Casually dissing Ferrari's prancing stallion
Jackisaboss1208 Ford Performance If they don't kick every last Ferrari to the curb on the track then it's not living up to the legacy of its 1960 predecessor.
SundownMarkTwo Got a feeling they'll do it next year. Can't wait to see em back in action.
Jackisaboss1208 See you there! Lol
+Jackisaboss1208 Nope. I noticed it too on the first watch. Made me chuckle.
yes, 'murica!
We've been watching. We've been waiting. Now we're back. #FordGT #LM24 #Ford #FordPerformance #FordLeMans
Cool!
Ford Performance Best of luck, Ford! Hope y'all take home the win. The new GT is one of the sexiest cars ever conceived, no joke. So glad you guys went with a concept look, rather than watering down the production version.
So stoked!!!
Ford Performance If it goes as good as it looks I feel sorry for the rest...
Awesome... Awesome... Awesome...
Congrats to Ford for making the 1st, 3rd and 4th! Made awesome history again!
Dat horse :) The irony.
Enes Furkan Nazlı quite deliberate I am certain ;-)
***** More likely a jab at Ferrari
***** Troll score: 3/10. Try harder next time
***** Is your last name stupid? John Stupid? Ya, it is
I wonder if this a jab against Porsche or Ferrari or both. They both have horses in their logos and GT40 went direct head to head against Porsche 906 on its debut.
That might just have been one of the greatest FORD motor company ad's ever made. Took some balls to do that.
Haha I'm dying at the horse reference at the end. Glad to see you back Ford. Also, not gonna lie I was nervous about the V6, but damn does it sound good. Proud to be an American, that's for sure.
What about a massive v12 oh man that would sound amazing
Ford vs Ferrari vs Porsche vs Corvette vs Aston Martin?!
Le Mans 2016, here we come!
The Ferrari slayer returns!!!!
Oh yea you know it
Corvette rules over this car at lemans..
@@dennismichealsm3786 is that why it lost ? 🤣
Don't be dumb...
@@YZdude lost? When was that
@@dennismichealsm3786 2016 & 2019 besides that Corvette has only won Lemans "ONCE" the year before this car came out which is probably why Chevrolet made a mid engine Corvette now.
General Motors - following Fords footsteps since 1903 🤣
Love the jab at Ferrari haha. I'm so beyond excited.
No matter what kind of type of Mechine. Driver it's a important.
the Horse at the End .... i love it!
And today..... The legend has returned! Congrats ford motor sports!
I used to love this commercial. After getting to know the story... it should be the #1 GT40 on it...
'Murica
***** that spelling. So priceless.
More like Europa.....
+kevin71127 you do know that's a joke ?
billy heaton
Are you sure you know who my reply was aimed at?
+Daniel Duong no
Nice job Ford! I hope you kick Ferrari's ass again next year!
Okay
Ferrari?
Joseph Neufeldt I don't see anyone telling the story. So I'll tell it since it's so great. Back in the 60's Enzo Ferrari was looking to sell Ferrari to Ford. When Enzo found out that they were not going to let him continue to be over the racing division he backed out of the deal. This was after Ford had spent millions auditing Ferrari. In return Henry Ford II sought to build a Ferrari killer. The GT40 was Ford's answer, and it won the next 4 consecutive Lemans before retiring the car.....Until now.
lost1403 idk why that's so crazy if before that ferrari won 6 in a row 9 in total.
christian ruiz Ford didn't race in the Lemans before the GT40, and hasn't raced since. Just those years. Ferrari has been in it every year, and only has 9 wins. If you can't understand why that's crazy I don't know how to explain it for you.
chills... proud of our boys in blue!!
Well done Ford, Congrats on the win @ Le Mans!
Wow, nice video and a beautiful car! In Germany we say "Gänsehaut!" :-)
P1TV in english you say goosebumps ;)
P1TV in Italian we say cazzo
P1TV In dutch we say kippenvel
P1TV in spanish it is "piel de gallina" (chicken skin)
P1TV in Texas we say yeeehawww...
At 1:16 the speed that it revs is unbelievable.
If that's what it really sounds like then I'm all for the V6 EcoBoost
Ford vs Ferrari. One of the all time greatest rivalries. I cannot wait.
Stunning and amazing video! Great to see you back in Le Mans!
That horse at the end! Lol, that's Ferrari right now
I've had tears in my eyes at 0:30 already. This is beautiful.
Welcome back, glad to have you.
Dat sound...
Simplesmente muito feliz em ver ela voltando a sua casa : As pistas!
Haha that was a great vid, esp at the end scaring the horse!
Nice to see more manufactures going back in still
Congratulations to the team who made this video, it's gorgeous! very well done Ford
I loved that gag at the end, with the black horse. :D
Ford is the king of Le Mans
+Colds the last 3 races they were in says otherwise, they have lost to chevy, ferrari, and porsche every race xD
john learoux ferrari hasnt placed first in LeMans since the gt40 smacked it in the sixties, the only one of those companies i agree with is Porsche
corvette is the leader you know that right? dumby dumb dumb
How can you be king of Le Mans when you are finally returning after 50 years? Now Corvette, with 8 wins..they are kings for sure!
Audi is king of Le Mans.
Wow this gave me the chills. Well done!
Will probably be my new fav sports car.
Oh the goosebumps *_* amazing sound.
The brand I truly respect.
i cant believe the sensation i had watching the car transforming that was incredible but real
Aż dawne czasy się przypomniały ;)
That's exciting! Loved the video as well
Notice how the Stallion gets frightened at the end? Ferrari beware hahaha!
***** Because you say so.
*****
It's the truth because you say so... Or can you point out any facts to back this claim up?
*****
Nope. Anybody can say anything on the Internet (or in person for that matter). That sure doesn't make it true does it? A common base of facts apart from the speaker is on order to verify its truth...
Yeesh. This video game me shivers. Thank you so much ford for returning to the performance section. You've been missed.
Fantastic video! Looking forward!
Finally! A legend returns!
Nice touch with the horse al the last second! ;)
The GT-40 is one of the most beautiful cars ever made!
The startled horse at the end was awesome lol
You guys nailed it last year!!!!! Way to go!!!!!!!!
Esto es publicidad de un coche y no la basura que se suele ver , muuy buen video !!!!
Looking awesome. It'll be great to see this race at Le Mans.
I Love The Whole Part Of This Video But What I Like The Most Is The Transformation, King Ford 4 Life!!!!
Amazing video. The things I would do to get behind the wheel of that beautiful machine...
The finish of this race, oh my god.
2019 christmas my wife got for me a Ford Gt scale model. i came here checking the accuracy of the model... spot on! that being said i was also going to note the Black Stallion at the end and the obvious reference to the past... but hehe it was my first time seeing this video VIVA FORD!
¡ Fabuloso ! Que bueno, buenisimo que este de retorno. Mucho exito !
Car sounds freaking amazing.
So many kinds of awesome I think it hurts. I am so outta my mind over this right now!
Awesome video.. Subbed to see more!!
Welcome Back. We've been waiting for you....
The black horse at the end was a nice touch.
The car looks great and ready for action! I would love the drive!
man! I want to see this race!
I like how the Ford GT40 is just chillin there like:
"That's right bitches, I did that, I bet Ferrari."
Congrats Ford you did it 50 years later
First
On
Race
Day
THAT STARTLED BLACK PRANCING HORSE IS THE GREATEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN OMFG I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING
Bela máquina
VERY , inspirational video, featuring historical greatness, great morphing, and HOPEFULLY, an equally great result in 2016, with such a great piece of design/engineering !!
This video gives me chills kick ass Ford
Murica Style: Noisy and kicking the door
And I like it!
Cant wait to see and hear it
Thank God! I can't wait!
nice touch at the end where it buzzes the black stallion.
Wow, sounds amazing!!
Nice job at the prancing or should I say startled horse hint at the end... Looking forward to it, Ford Performance ...
Awesome!!! Great car and video
Looks so badass
So much win.
How I love the scene at 1:40 where the Horse got scared XD
It's like scaring a Ferrari hahaha...
A little late but please permit me this moment. In 1966, I was a 13 year (bi-lingual) American kid in De Gaulle's post-War France for most of Summer vacation. Homesick, for sure... and surrounded by French cousins who lived and breathed "Les 24 Heures du Mans". Oh, my what a moment when the Ford cars delivered that victory. Some 50 years later, this year was just as sweet. And so now with this testimonial to my version of that day 50 years ago, I can once again assure my Bride, my kids and my therapist that it "just isn't my fault" that I have gone from Celica's to Supras to the Lotus Esprit to the M3, the Viper and now the convertible 2014 Corvette Stingray (apologies to Ford). It was all the Ford GT's fault that Summer in France. Toujours...
I love the hint at Ferrari at the end (the horse).
hahahaha lol @ the end, shots fired.
It looks like I may have to get into watching racing now! Man, I can't wait, I'm expecting great things (once again) from my favorite car company! Let's hope they enter at least 3 of them in the races!:)
thaaaaat's a beautiful racing car love the video
Notice the Gurney bubble on the 1967 car to accommodate Dan Gurneys height. That's where I got the idea for my Barrett bubble on my corvette.
I got goose bumps!
Ten šestihrnec řve moc pěkně. Snad to není fake jako to CGI. :)
Now that what i call insane ;) epic
WOOOOH! I knew they were planning a comeback after the Ford GT announcement!
This is poetry!
This is super exciting, good luck Ford!!!
OMG this car is so beautiful...
Cool video
We'll see how they can deliver beside Aston Martin and Ferrari
holly molly...............the legend is back :-)
génial, trop bien fait
No comments about the beauty of this car ???
Time to start kicking ass like it's 1966!
That horse at the end is a very Smart hint at Ferrari hahaha
I just got goose bumps
The legend return to win , good luck in 2016 Ford :)
Beautiful
Cool
It is a good exhaust sound.
Yes cannot wait
That little jab at Ferrari was priceless!
lol scaring the black horse at the end,
