- The Le Mans 24 Hours is tough. It is a true test of man and machine. Sometimes Le Mans chooses you and sometimes it doesn’t. Inside the Ford Chip Ganassi Racing garage at Le Mans and inside the cockpits of the four Ford GTs, a fantastic group of people fought for every inch of race track.They fought until the end, despite overwhelming tiredness and scored a podium finish for the #68 Ford GT.

Who is getting this in their recommended after ford vs Ferrari came out
Me
Just watched Ford vs Ferrari today lool
@@randomdude3464 same here bro i just watch it and saw this on youtube
Me
Ford vs Ferrari was my childhood story.
Cameraman: zoom in to number 69
Me: "Nice"
hahaha, was looking for this comment!
ok funy number
Ford should make an official complaint... First, it was Ferrari and now Porsche has to resort to rather questionable tactics says a lot about how phenomenal the GT really is.
Ehm...they didnt win did they? Wasnt probably some blocking over the span of 24h...sorry dude, that is bullcrap. :)
@@MrStubbs8157 you gotta remember the ford has stricter regulations and has less fuel flow so if it was the 2017 care you can imagine what woulda happen
@@TienTran-kw3il Stricter regulations? Arent they supposed to be all fulfilling regulations and on that bases porsche even got more weight?
@@MrStubbs8157 It was the first year for the RSR so basically unknown while the GT won last Le Mans which Ferrari was basically had very similar time with them. So basically new car= less rules and less strick weight+fuel regulations
@@TienTran-kw3il why do they do that??why do they want the cars to be slower??? I'm hella confuse!
When the competition resorts to blocking it tells you which car is the fastest.
Well done guys....a hard fought podium position. Boring? Not from where I was stood watching! We'll be there to cheer you on again next year :)
Paul Tucker did you end up going?
My family has worked for Ford since the early 60's. Go Go Ford!
Thats really cool
Lemans started as a Race where all car manufactures fought to see who builted the best car.
This new rules are just killing this race.
The new rules are saving it. Homologation keeps the competition interesting David Valencia
APVX Le Mans is only a shell of what it was 40 + years ago
NUGGET new rules are killing all motorsport. Look at f1, it’s a joke haha
But aren't the restriction across the board? I don't understand your comment. The race is tiered in different classes. Put a turbo on that Porsche and see what happens. They are not allowed to make it a fair race.
I going to miss these guys! These cars are amazing and Ford went hard for 4 years. Hope they make a comeback in the near future. The GT really is a legend. Love them!
That porsche driver was a dirty smh.
What was he playing cops and robbers out there? Lol
ionicblood666 he thought he was in the fast & the furious 😂🤣
What did he do? I guess I didn't notice for some reason.
That looked like damn good driving to me.
@@thomaschristopherwhite9043 you're absolutely right
why wasn't the Porsche flagged for blocking?
Because it is declared legal as long as no crash happens.
No the rules say you are allowed only one racing line you cannot weave all over the track and block
Not in the WEC. There have been quite a few LMP1 battles in the last couple of years, where this was a basic move.
shigeolincolntaco Ferrari was doing it as well
He wasn't braking so no foul
5:25
Commentator: An hour to go.
Crew: 🥱😴😴
I've never being a fan of american cars, but I have to admit that Ford did an outstanding job with this one! Well done! Corvettes are also always beautiful to see.
Stunning! That was unbelievable weekend thanks to you. Beautiful fight with Makowiecki's Porsche, best lap time and despite issues with suspension in fourth car all of the Fords managed to get home safely and on good positions. Thank you so much!
I love Ford dearly, here's to next year! Great job out there boys.
My grandfather raced Ford stock cars, my father's owned more FoMoCo products than I have fingers, and my first car was a Ford. I bleed blue!
The GT is a work of art
Well done Ford Performance. Great job on the coverage and podium spot. Go the Fords 🏁 🏁
Man, the music just pulled this whole video together!
Thanks Ford Performance. You guys did really well with the hand you were dealt. Hope you will be better prepared and set up next year. I was not real happy about the V6, but wow, you guys did good with them. OK, I am a Ford V8 snob LOL
Eldor Luedtke theirs reason to why they had to go with the v6 its actually really good reason too but most of them was becuase of stupid rules
Always the same story for Fords , all the competitors cripple them and still want to call it a race. Ford always gets it done with smaller motors and more restrictions.
i don't think there were any irregularities this year.. both the GT and the 911 got a penalty either in the form of a restrictor or weight.. the GTs were just unlucky this year (broken suspension, safety car, etc.). As for smaller motors, yes it's smaller but it's got two turbos, the Porsche is N/A... you're comparing apples to oranges. Tbh i'm a Porsche fan but I wouldn't mind seeing Ford win if that means exciting races for all of us.
Stefan you do realize you are comparing a Porsche engine to a F150 engine ? Yes I know I know its got a little help but these engines are not so far off from what you can find under the hood of any F150 on the roads in the US.
As far as Fords getting the short end of the stick I am not just talking Le Mans . It seems in every form of motor sport Ford shows up with a smaller power plant and still ends up getting the penalties .
I won championships two years in a row with the smallest LEGAL engine in a field of big cubic inch highly illegal engines and they still cried about mine.
Kyle Van Tassel im not comparing Porsche engines to an F-150 engine, i'm comparing N/A with FI. That has nothing to do with who built the engine. It's common sense that a turbo engine is always going to be smaller capacity than an NA one. And credit where credit's due, Ford did one hell of a job with the 3.5 EcoBoost. The very fact that the same engine found in a pickup (altghough relatively heavily modified for what it is) can compete in top GT racing is a testament to the engineering gone into it. I won't get into BOP any further since in my opinion they're doing a good job, but the fact of the matter is that the racing is close as is. If they give a bigger penalty to the 911 and Ford starts winning races, we'd all whine about them preferring Ford and we'd wind up at the same place.
Well in my opinion the penalties are all BS , it killed NASCAR here in the US . Racing is about being better , not equal . I get that safety becomes an issue but if you are scared stay home and bake cakes . Injuries happen in motor sports . Fact is if the cars get faster and safer we all benefit from the technology. If you limit them it becomes stale.
Races like Le Mans should be about bringing the best you have and you know what ? If Ford couldnt cut it thats fine with me , then we chase it until we win.
Having your marque compete (I dont mean ride around the track) in Le Mans means alot to us small poor folks that support the oval and it should mean that you have climbed Everest and beat it to win.
Look at the Daytona 500 now , Yawwwnnnnnnnnn .
The winner of this race should hands down have the fastest platform in the world... Period...
BluBlud Jam Preach my brother
Im foremost a Porsche fan. But man the 68 Ford seriously challenged the 91 Porsche. That was real racing! Good job Ford!! Maybe next year.
james liu 91 also almost pushed 68 into the wall.
5:33 When my mom walks in my room and im pretending to sleep
I can't stand commuting for 2 hours...imagine racing for 8 hours
You are only delivering pizzas. Le Mans driver are highly paid sportsmen in a world class competition.
Great racing between you and Porsche. Thanks for the onboard during the whole race!
Thanks for your coverage, I wouldn't have seen the race without it!
Thank You Ford for this awesome Festival of Speed! Was great fun to watch.
Still love the Ford GT with that paint job👍
rest in peace ken Miles
Sometimes they
Just don’t get out
The Europeans will not let the GT's win . If the GT's get faster next year , they will just add more wright to slow them back down
again . The people writing the rules at Le Mans picks the winners
Not true. The reason why Ford didn't win is because they didn't have their LeMans aero package on any of the Fords. Not enough testing so they went with a conservative package. They should be faster next year as they'll have more time to test.
The Fords became lighter before Le Mans. The Porsches had to run with 10kg more weight.
reginald burks Well the GT won 2016 and Ford could have won as they were fighting the 2nd Porsche. Without the SC they could have done it. BOP was great exept for Aston.
in 2017 the add wright to the ford GT's and again this year , ford make the GT'S faster and they just keep adding wright to slow them back down
They add 150kg to the fords
Good luck in 2019, Ford
Hope to see you guys on top in 19'.
Regards from Denmark
Got some bad news from the future m8
Beautiful video Ford Performance!! Props to your color grader, looks great!
That guy's sideburns are the most epic part of this video.
At 1:58 Ford overpasses a brand new 911RSR?? Shame that they finished only on 3rd position due to bad circumstances(((
1st in 2016 2nd in 2017 3rd in 2018
4th in 2019.
Love the GT!!!!!!!
Don't discontinue offering the RS in the US
A beetle?in front of a ford gt?Get out for the way!stupid bubble car

Dëmønįnhū Tømlëø
That was such a Hammond thing to say
Well done FP! Come back hard next year. Also thank you for the wonderful live streaming
Congrats ford on a great race! Cars looked beautiful, reliable, and fast. Excellent racing from all the drivers as well!
What was that Porsche doing? Is that even legal? I thought swerving was illegal and that's pretty much what he was doing... and if not swerving, blocking. Either way that was just not ok
It is legal in the WEC. Every driver did it at some points over the years in every class. There were some hard fought battles in LMP1 in the last couple of years were this was a constant thing.
I was under the impression that is legal so long as you don't do it in the braking zone of a corner. Overly defensive or dangerous maneuvers in said zone would be illegal. Correct me if I'm wrong.
He was defending his position while the ford was fighting with him
I mean under IMSA rules yeah but lemans isnt under IMSA rulea
Great video!I love how you guys keep up a great attitude under a tough race.I’m a genuine Porsche fan but I think that the GT deserves the race win.Better luck next year!Hope that Ford can have a better result next time!
Porches dirty driving
Rahimou Elyazid tu devrais te calmer mon petit, ça m'étonnerait qu'il ait compris
I saw the decks and patios drivers were driving dirty as well.
@@prodICYN stfu and learn to speak English
JS Fun fact, did you know that some people can speak many languages? I guess you americans didn't know right?
Don't worry, iTrumpy's gonna save your country
@@prodICYN Fun fact did you know im from Germany and the comment you replied to is in English. And im also able to understand some French but I hate it when you guys presuppose that everybody should be able to do so too.
GO FORD! Good race fellas!
This is why I am subscribed
the back scene touch my heart lmao. goodjob all racing team.
Excellent . . . . Stay Frosty FORD
Ford made this year Le mans really excited.
This GT-40 program sold me a Ecoboost.
Love it.👍
Love It . . . Totally Frosty .
Nice job guys get them next year!
My 15 year old self cannot handle seeing the number 69 at any time without dying laughing
i love ford
I have focus 2017 great performance
Honestly ford already proved themselves multiple times over. Most recently the 2016 le mans they won their FIRST year back. That's good enough for me 👌 I'd say hold back another 30 years or so then come back again and remind them whos boss lol
1:45 the big M8 was born
Great job Ford
Good job Ford! I know it's always been an uphill battle over there vs the Europeans and their rules and restrictions, but you guys prove again and again that you're amazing racers with one helluva race car
I've been wanting to know if the Fords were once again slapped with the weight and intake restrictions of last year?
adventurous63 yes
Not air intakes , but reduced turbo pressure
Same happened to Porsche, right?
LOL what???
They got a bit more fuel but got a weight penalty and boost cut across the rev range. GT had no guts coming out of the corners so it was always playing catch up. Thats why the RSR seemed to pull away only for the GT to reel it in at the end of the straights. Safety car screwed the lead GT's and the race director letting the porsches play rough sealed the deal.
I hope they make the EcoBoost v6 bit faster and the car less drag of the wheels that's their biggest problem but Bugatti chiron super sport 300+ has holes next to the wheels so the air will get out and make it more faster
It's not racing if they're holding a car down to compete with other cars. We already have that kind of racing it's called NASCAR. if this is what we can expect from LeMans then we might as well watch Nascar cuz at least that's more exciting.
rxibot Well NASCAR is diffrent then WEC though. Also how won in Spa? Was it Ford?
rxibot IKR. this race was all about who builted the best car.
ดึงความเจริญมาทางนี้
The Ford GTE is beautiful
I'm tired how Ford is treated with this bop BS. And we get I'd every time with this pace car. I feel like the race control does it on purpose. Not once has the safety pace car gone in our favor. I'm glad Ford can stay positive because I'm sick of the WEC and stupid ACO
In Spa the safety car helped us quite a lot
Ford even said they went with a conservative package instead of the LeMans package as not enough testing was done. So you should have known what the outcome was going to be.
Ford is always welcome to join the LMP1 class. Why do you think, they choosed the GTE category in the first place?
Max Steel Well when they have to call a SC they have to call a SC.
cgeopapa the safety car screwed the.
0:37 nice
My favourite gte
Good race guys, congrats to Porsche and Toyota as well.
5:05 - 5:18 that's some Cars movie action right there
That was was nice
Did you fix the brakes

Ford best in the world
1:45 big m8
Am i the only one who like the blocking from the Porsche?
It gets me excited, they are battling and fighting for the position.
It’s was so much better than Formula 1 and their crying babies (Fans and drivers).
Just saw ford vs Ferrari was a great movie I would highly suggest watching it
some of the most boring times i had as a teenager was sitting around watching nascar lol. Cop shows fit into the same boat.
Ford, the only team to bring a prototype to a GT race.
Built to win.
How did they figure out how to keep the spark plugs in it?
refreshing seeing murica win!
IMSA tries to level the playing field to make things "fair". This is a fallacy. They may be making things more competitive for entertainment purposes, but altering the playing field by favoring some competitors over others is never fair. It undermines fairness and de-legitimizes race results.
YouGotsTheRabies They don't favour anybody... Who was favoured?
I agree but im skeptical of what you say because le mans is wec not imsa
Whoever wins is favored. That is the result of their strategic rule-burdens placed on teams. That's the litmus test. It doesn't matter how much logic, how much reason, how many facts are involved. It was manipulated, and therefore not open and honest.
OK. If that's true, then google search "Le Mans IMSA bop" and see what pops up.
@@YouGotsTheRabies Well there's the American Le Mans series which is runned by IMSA
idk much about cars and endurance races but did they use the same car during the 24 hour period and if so how is that possible?
Anyone notice that the timestamp is 6:47? That's the horsepower figure for the roadgoing GT!
Does the Ford GT sound like that because of the V6?
Ford still winners!
The only non WEC entries to get a podium at Le Mans this year.....
Great video, how do I get hired by this video production team?
U know what they say about 3rd place?....................Exactly!
Don't like BOP rules. Build a car according to the rules and may the best car wins. The GT is a 650 HP car not a 500 HP by FIA BOP rules car.
we'd never get to see interesting racing though.. it would be races only dominated by a certain model all the time, and if it's not the Ford this year it'll be someone else with a new car.. BOP is there to keep manufacturers interested in racing so that we get to see as many different manufacturers and car shapes on the grid as possible
BoP is communism but on a race track. Slow down fast cars to “level the playing field” instead of having disparities between slow and fast cars. The GT, 488 and C7 are full on sports cars, while the M8 I feel is a true GT car that gets a lot of help to compete. The GT and Vette are slowed way down to make it fair.
David Gonzalez The C7 is far to old and slow to up at the front since a couple of years. And most of the manufacturers want a BoP to get guaranteed wins.
LP for ever like I said, communism. The C7 is the oldest car in the field sure but BoP is the the only way to get more cars in the field. GTE was ballin this year, I’m disappointed the GT lost but I think had the M8 not had damper issues, they could have won. Although it does seem they like to give wins on anniversaries, Ford on its 50th Porsche on its 70th. Go figure...
BoP will make manufacturers and fans leave the sport. Ford is smart by leaving the GTE class by 2020 because the FIA has been penalizing this car every since it won the race in 2016. Doesn`t make any sense at all. Build a superior car and then make it slower so it`ll be like the others in the class. This is so backward thinking.
Soy mas comunista que stalin pero quiero que ford sea el number one en todos sus vehiculos! sus ingenierias son las mejores y mas innovadoras de todos los tiempos en el automovilismo !! Larga vida a Ford !!
