The feud between Henry Ford and Enzo Ferrari was sparked in the 1960s when Ford sought to acquire Ferrari, but Enzo Ferrari abruptly backed out of the deal, leaving Ford executives feeling humiliated. Determined to prove Ford’s superiority, Henry Ford II initiated the development of the first Ford GT, the GT40, to challenge Ferrari’s dominance in sports car racing. The GT40 went on to achieve a historic victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1966, marking a significant blow to Ferrari’s legacy and solidifying Ford’s reputation as a fierce competitor. In the modern era the rivalry still resonates, inspiring the creation of the new Ford GT. Introduced in 2016, it pays homage to the legendary GT40 and continues the legacy of challenging supercar manufacturers on the racetrack. With cutting-edge technology and exceptional performance, the new Ford GT serves as a symbol of Ford’s determination to compete with the best in the high-performance sports car market, perpetuating the historic feud between these automotive giants.
