Shelby should have never asked Ken to slow down and wait for the other GT40's to catch up ....in another documentary carroll said he always regretted that decision...Ken deserved to win the triple crown that year.
The #1 Ford (Miles/Hulme) only caught up to the #2 Ford (McLaren/Amon) after all the Ford entries were ordered to slow down, and Miles ignored the order and kept pushing. This was before the order went out for the Fords to finish together. If the cars were left to race, the #2 Ford would have won comfortably.

1966 and 1968 Ford GT 40, Ferrari 330 P4 and the Porsche 906 Carrrera are to me the most incredible cars ever built... So beautiful and those sounds. ?Nonetheless, thos guys were fools running like that without security. Wonderful pictures though. They belong to legend. Thanks for this sharing ! :-) cheers from France
MrCharlou92 I prefer the LMP1s today, look brilliant and, whilst they don't sound as great their downshifts sound amazing. Coupled that with their physics defying speed and its a car I can't dismiss as one of my favorites.
Don't forget 1969 with the incredible finish between Ickx (Ford GT40) and Hermann (Porsche 908). A nice movie could be done with this other story at Le Mans. Jacky Ickx winner after starting last to fasten seat belt (because of Willy Mairesse accident in 1968 followed by his suicide) 1966 : McLaren-Amon / 1967 : Gurney-AJ Foyt / 1968 : Rodriguez - Bianchi / 1969 : Ickx - Oliver.
Fools? Fools? Surely there is a better description. Fool denotes the uninformed. These guys were hyper-informed, calculated, and took risk with some experience to give them the confidence to push harder. Yes, in hindsight, we are all fools for doing things now which were not long ago widely accepted as healthy. Such is hindsight. But these guy were not fools. Were the Apollo Astronauts fools? Surely more so than these guys. At least if these guys got something wrong they didn’t hurdle through the upper atmosphere towards the earth with their craft on fire and every odd against their survival after flopping into the ocean. So hit the water at 300mph or a wall at 170.
Dave Fesse-Bouc Yes, Ickx walked to his car in protest, buckled up his seat belt properly and was last to start his car and he still won the race quite amazing. They abandoned the traditional running start the year after that.
Very interesting and nice film. Thank you for that. It's a pity they don't tell a word about Ken Miles and Denny Hulme who should have win le Mans 66 if no Ford team requests. After the race, poor Ken Miles said they have stolen his victory ...and he died 2 months later testing the Ford "J" !
At this moment ford just want to do the first eguality on the history of 24h, they didn't want to steal the victory of ken miles. It's the jugmenent of the organisator
@@lakartecim2176 No, it's not exact. Before the end of the race, the ACO (organisator) said to Ford there could not be 2 cars winners but only one, and in case of strict dead heat, the car who made the longest distance will be the winner. So Ford knew that BEFORE THE END OF THE RACE and decided to let the victory to Mclaren-Amon. So Ford is the only responsible.
the aerodynamics were to die for in those days. Many people today will never understand how ahead of its time that car was for its speed against the top supercar manufacturing brands. notice how u see many fast cars today have lower stance, slight curves, air passage, weight distribution... It had it all in 1966 !!Shelby did a great job on this, had enzo fuming
Ken miles,ayrton Senna, lauda meus ídolos! I'm a Brazilian mechanic and a motorsport fan. If there's something I would live and die for, it would be for motorsport.
Thank u for that taste of original film....looks very familar like the movie...im really glad that the movie came out because i learned so much like the fact that shelby drove an won in 59 for aston martin an i learned how good a driver an who ken miles was....an it was a great story that happen 3 months after i was born so i dont remember any of it...no matter howhard i try......
Glad I saw your comment as I too noticed his wrong identity. Don't believe this narrator realy knows cars or racing. He also kept pronouncing Mulsanne (Mul-son) as Mul-sann.
Excellent clip, and thanks for uploading. However we must assume the commentator was given a script to read without knowing the true story of the race. The Ken Miles and Denny Hulme #1 led the race for much of the Sunday, the black #2 didn't lead despite what you hear on the footage.
Check the facts instead, or the Chris Amon recent interview before he passed away. Also Miles had a really really quick Co driver Denis Hulme the 1967 World Champion hardly mentioned here.The 2 car was 53 seconds ahead around 11am when all the the Fords were told to slow down. One didn’t the No 1 car & passed the 2 car. The 2 car changed from Firestone to Goodyear tyres late the first day when they couldn’t get the Firestones to work on the GT. This film has stirred an unnecessary hornets nest. All these drivers were highly competitive drivers. I saw 3 of them a number of times, they were all racers. I am angry at the language being used about particularly Bruce McLaren the driver that did follow team orders . I love the GT have since I was a 13 year old in 66. Bruce is in my autograph book as is both Denny & Chris. They were 3 of the top drivers in the world at that time. I am angry at the way Lorenzo Bandini was betrayed in this film,He was consistent & smart Formula 1 driver, the Ford was nearly 20 mph faster, so there was no head to head drag down the straight! Had a chance to have a good look at the Gulf GT40 in 1975, an amazing car.I am really glad Chris Amon never saw the Ford versus Ferrari film.He passed away. In 2018 I believe.
Nice film thank you. But i wonder why The No 1 leading at least at the end of the race wasn't mentioned by the commentator, we only heard about the no: 2 . Anyways i hope the Movie is accurate, because that is a sad moment in Motorsports history. Ken Miles was a special Talent without any doubt. No i didn't know Him until i watched the Movie. But now i do. and my G'od He was a brilliant man. The Ford GT40 Ken Miles version should be in Gran Turismo Sports if they really should show History gallery hehe.
Le Mans del 1966 fu vinta da una Lola powered by Ford e non già da una Ford. L'apporto di Shelby fu determinante, ma la macchina fu progettata e sviluppata da Eric Broadley patron della Lola Cars International Ltd su incarico di Henry Ford II, che ci mise tutti i soldi, ma che senza Broadley non ci sarebbe mai riuscito, neanche con l'apporto determinante di Shelby
Da qualche parte, tuttavia, mi pare di aver letto che Broadley abbandonò il progetto per forti divergenze di opinione con i manager della Ford. Egli avrebbe voluto realizzare una scocca in lega leggera di alluminio mentre alla Ford pensavano (come in effetti avvenne) di realizzare una scocca in acciaio per potere successivamente costruire una gt stradale. La fondazione della Lola avvenne proprio in conseguenza dell'abbandonò di Broadley del progetto.
@@girolamosorriso6980 la Lola Cars venne fondata da Broadley nel 1958. Effettivamente, nel corso dello sviluppo del progetto originale della GT40, Eric Broadley lasciò la collaborazione con la Ford, però la vettura era ormai definita, anche se poi lo sviluppo continuò con l'apporto determinante di Shelby.
Io non ho capito una cosa però: il fatto finale del film, la vittoria "rubata" è cosa realmente successa o una licenza poetica che il regista si è preso?
Who came here after watching Ford vs Ferrari?
Me lol, my Father was in front of his tv in 1966!
Same.
Kanekaiii Shoyo Irie brethren !!! Awesome
Ford gt40 best car 1964-2019
ME XD
Rest In Peace to the true winners , Ken Miles and Denny Hulme
You know the film isn't totally accurate right?
@@mfelix2183 it's not. But the #1 car not winning due to it's starting location was entirely accurate.
Shelby should have never asked Ken to slow down and wait for the other GT40's to catch up ....in another documentary carroll said he always regretted that decision...Ken deserved to win the triple crown that year.
@@LICobra triple crown??

This was before the order went out for the Fords to finish together. If the cars were left to race, the #2 Ford would have won comfortably.
Ken Miles was a racing legend.
So true
As long as we won‘t forget, he still lives on.
Greetings from Germany!
“Performance is my business”.
-Carroll Shelby
Just one winner...Ken MIles!!!
True
KEN M1LES .
Nope, two winners: McLaren and Amon.
Shelby and Miles we one the greatest racing teams in US history.
C'est Ken Miles qui devait gagner. Le pire c'est qu'il est mort quelques semaines après cette édition de 1966. C'est écoeurant 😭

I believe that the ford printed one of there car red like Ferrari to humiliated them
Jesus I think that was dan gurney too
Myself and two other Army buddies were stationed in Germany in 1969. We drove to Le Mans that year on a 3 day pass and watched Ford GT40 # 6 win.
When time machines get invented, i will go back and watch Le Mans 1966 and also tell Carroll Shelby to not ask Ken to slow down
I also
'For nearly half a century...' - it's just been 100 years so just goes to show how long ago this was. Great video!
We all know that the #1 was the winner
What a legendary car to watch.
First place, for the fockin NUMBER ONE FORD GT DRIVEN BY KEN MILES!

Agree, he was too much of a gentleman, and stuck to team rules, he should have done what Bob Bondurant did when he raced for Alan Mann.
