Description

Ford v Ferrari shows you the injustice. It doesn't show you the full scale of what was stolen. Ken Miles arrived at Le Mans in 1966 having already won Daytona and Sebring that same year. He was leading Le Mans with a four-lap cushion. The Triple Crown — three of endurance racing's biggest races in a single calendar year — was 48 minutes away. Then Ford made one decision. And the record has gone unbroken for 60 years. In this video we break down what the Triple Crown actually is, why it has never been achieved, and why Ken Miles remains the only driver in history who ever genuinely had all three in his hands at the same time.
