For many years, the 24 Hours at Le Mans has been regarded as one of the pinnacle events in racing. With a stellar lineup of elite vehicle brands, the race has driven innovations that bridge the gap from the garage to consumer vehicles. Ford, a prominent and trusted name in the United States and worldwide, is preparing to take part in the event starting in 2027.
Ford Looking to Recreate History
In the 1960s, Ford earned four consecutive Le Mans titles, affirming its status as one of the best automotive brands globally. Today, Ford is focused on recapturing the winning formula that once positioned it at the forefront of racing. According to Ford's CEO, the brand aims to conquer all tracks regardless of where they are and what they are made of.
Ford Bested Ferrari During Its Run of Dominance
During the 1960s, Ford famously triumphed over Ferrari to win its Le Mans championships. This milestone was crucial as Ferrari was swiftly building its market share and establishing itself as a leader in endurance racing. Ford's victories ensured that the brand continued to be recognized for pushing the limits of vehicle capability.
Everyone Is Excited To Have Ford Back
Along with Ford's CEO expressing his excitement about the event's return, the FIA World Endurance Championship (FIA WEC) CEO also shared his enthusiasm. He noted that it signifies a rejuvenated interest and a period of growth in both endurance racing and the Le Mans event.
