Le Mans Tribute


 


If you have seen the film Ford v Ferrari, you would have an idea about the car you see above. I mean, this is an iconic piece of artwork by Ford. In 1969, Ford beat Ferrari in the Le Mans 24hr race in France using the iconic GT40Mk1. It used a 4.2L V8 which gave 390 HP. The car seen above is its successor which has much stronger teeth. The Ford GT which is sleek, fast & expensive uses a twin turbocharged 3.5L v6 which gives out a massive 660 HP. The specific car above is a tribute to its predecessor which won the Le Mans in 1969 against Ferrari.
