Q: Lee Iacocca went to Maranello to discuss the acquisition with Enzo Ferrari?
Fact: When Henry Ford II planned to buy Ferrari, he sent a "team" to Ferrari's headquarters in Maranello, but Lee Iacocca was not on the team list. According to Forbes, Ford's lawyer team will not be accompanied by sales executives. At the same time, there were no commercial spies from Fiat at the trading site.
Question-carroll shelby's team undertook the design and development of the Ford GT40?
Fact: You can't say that completely. Shelby and Kim Myers have made great contributions to the research and development of the Ford GT40. Shelby's team is indeed in the design and development team of the Ford GT40, but in fact, a large number of Ford employees and suppliers are engaged in this tense "battle", including the senior leaders of Ford in the "Glass Room" in Michigan (Ford dearborn Headquarters). Perhaps Shelby or Myers will have some differences with Ford on some minor opinions, but in the face of this urgent task, the overall rhythm of the team has maintained harmony.
Question-Did Shelby invite Henry Ford II to experience the Ford GT40? MKII?
Historical facts: First of all, it should be explained that whenever and wherever anyone enters a racing car like the Ford GT40, he must wear necessary protective measures, so it is impossible for Henry Ford II to enter the car in a suit and tie and experience "flying life" with Shelby. According to IndieWire, did Henry Ford II really experience the Ford GT40? But it was not Shelby who sat next to him, but Kim Myers himself.
In addition, in fact, the fact that Leo Bibby is locked in the office by Shelby is also the effect of the program fabricated by the film.
Question-Did Ford Ban include Kim Myers in the 1965 24 Hours of Le Mans?
Historical fact: The conflict between Kim Myers and Ford is slightly exaggerated in the film. If we search Kim Myers's Le Mans score on Wikipedia, it is not difficult to find that Kim Myers also participated in the 24 Hours of Le Mans race at 1965, and his co-driver was bruce mclaren who crossed the finish line with him and won the championship at 1966.
Unfortunately, in the Le Mans race of 1965, the Ford GT40 driven by Kim Myers was forced to retire due to gearbox failure.
Question-carroll shelby gambled all his property to let Kim Myers take part in the 24 Hours of Le Mans?
Fact: Let's continue to talk about the relationship between Kim Myers and Ford. Although Leo Bibby opposed Kim Myers, an eccentric racing driver, he finally gave in. Shelby didn't gamble with Henry Ford II with his net worth, nor did he put forward the condition that Kim Myers must win Daytona Endurance in order to participate in Le Mans Endurance. As for the "7000+" in Daytona? Shall we go? Like what? The slogan "hell" has never appeared in history.
Question-Lorenzo Gambini, who fought the midnight oil in Kim Myers?
Fact: In the film, Ferrari 2 1 ranked first at night, and Kim Myers needed to catch up with Gambini at night and overtake him before the day came. However, in the real 1966 Le Mans 24 Hours, Ferrari 2 1 was still ranked 12 around 3 am, and this rainy night battle was actually fictitious.
Question-Enzo Ferrari visited Le Mans?
Historical fact: In an interview with director James Mangold in IndieWire, he once said: "The most dramatic and unreal part of this film is that Enzo Ferrari appears in Le Mans. But I insisted that he appear in the film, because I really couldn't switch between Miles' wife and son and Enzo Ferrari, which was too difficult to express their sense of participation. "Well, it turned out to be a technical problem.
A "more real" experience
Generally speaking, most of the plots of "The King of Flying Cars" still respect historical facts. Although some effects and artistic fabrication and sublimation are inevitable, this does not affect our understanding of the confrontation between the two automobile giants in that era through this film. After the story of "King of Express" happened, Ford with strong financial strength gradually gained a foothold in Le Mans. Due to the change of the rules of the game, Ferrari, which was short of funds, finally chose to quit. However, with the change of each dynasty, there will always be a new challenger, which is another "Long Hudou" of Porsche and Ford. We also welcome you to explore another legendary story in Le Mans in the late 1960s. Portal: Celebrating the 50th anniversary of Porsche 9 17.
