Ken Miles is and stays the big winner of all in the eyes of everybody in the world Rest In Peace Ken Miles and Mr Shelby you where both the greatest man of all❤
Ken Miles was robbed… And blaming the race officials for an injustice that is entirely down to Ford executives and Shelby is somewhat shabby, frankly. It is a wrong that needs righting… at least the film brought Ken's achievements to a wider audience.
He was a super nice man, I worked for Shelby oil and gas back in the 80s and this man loved telling stories and was very down to earth. Mike his son is the same kinda man. Rip Mr Shelby
I never understood why Ken Miles couldn't go faster and catch up to them with another lap on them, rather than slowing down so they could catch up to him, and then cross together. (I'm still curious if they actually counted laps and they had all gone the same number of laps, or just came up with some rule, as Mr. Shelby says.) Cheers.
I miss Carroll. He'd love to see what's out on the market today for everything including EV, hybrid, and traditional cars. Guy just loved going fast and tinkering with new technology.
Ken Miles deserved to win that race! Just total nonsense that they robbed him of that victory! He should have kept the pedal to the floor and won by a huge margin!
Shelby regrets telling Ken about the corporate 1-2-3 finish plans because it was all nothing but publicity instead of his historical win that’s taken away
You can't get away from politics not even in racing We all know who won that race his name was ken miles
Carroll Shelby…… what a badass! RIP Sir….
Just a good old Texas boy and and a guy from the UK telling the French and Italians “Hey fuck you”
Ford 1…2…3. Just as it should be 🏁🇺🇸
RIP 🙏❤️
Everybody knows Ken won.

We all know Ken won 🏆
That's all that matters.
Don't sweat it, Carroll.
No way you could have known.
Ken was the champion on that day !

More importantly: Henry Ford was an antisemite Hitler lover as was Lindbergh. And of course Ford hated his workers‘unionizing.’

Rip Ken
I told the movie guys the truth, how it was back then. And they used it for the movie rights.😊
Rip Ken! You're still the winner!
There are photos of the finish. I remember it being the 2 car then the 1 car.
Thats how a man talks, truth telling…
❤ Ken Won ❤
ken miles was way ahead when they decided to do the trio finish.
I miss Carroll. He'd love to see what's out on the market today for everything including EV, hybrid, and traditional cars. Guy just loved going fast and tinkering with new technology.
That was a sad move
Ken miles is a legend as well as you Carroll Shelby!! You guys are greatly missed.
Ken won. End of story
Both men are a class act..❤❤❤❤❤
In American racing minds Ken Miles won the race!
A big thank you to Shelby, a great man.
He also started the "International chili society" promoting great chili across America!
RIP to two legends of racing! Like so many of the greats, Ken lost his life much too soon.❤❤
Yes, great, but Ford was only good for this race. They disappeared, and Ferrari is still a major force with a billion dollar Formula 1 program.
Ken miles got screwed
Ken Miles was the Man. Best part of the movie was getting the story right..
That was a bad decision. They still would have placed 1,2,3. No need to have all 3 cross at the same time.
Ken got screwed.
Love listening to this man talk…
Ken Miles should have never slowed to allow his teammates to cross at the same time.
That man is so full of horse schit it’s ridiculous
Ken Miles deserved to win that race! Just total nonsense that they robbed him of that victory!
He should have kept the pedal to the floor and won by a huge margin!
It really brakes my heart ….. It should've been Ken ….. It SHOULD HAVE BEEN Ken ……
R.I.P Carroll Shelby. N. Ken Miles
Shelby regrets telling Ken about the corporate 1-2-3 finish plans because it was all nothing but publicity instead of his historical win that’s taken away
This isn't as simple as he claims and Ford Exec's knew this.
save face?? perhaps. Appease Ferrari?? DEFINITELY. motorsports organizations are still doing that today.
Tell 'em how ya cheated, Carroll. That's how ya really won.
