60 Years After Its Historic Victory, Ford Will Return to Le Mans

Description

In 1966, Ford defeated Ferrari in an epic battle at a 24-hour car race held annually in Le Mans, France. But this year, ahead of 24 Hours of Le Mans this weekend, Ford announced on Friday it will finally put its wheels back in the race in 2016. Ford held a press conference to unveil its GT race car, which is set to race in the Gran Turismo Endurance Pro (GTE Pro) class at the 2016 Le Mans race. This racer is based on the stunning road-going GT that broke the car lovers' Internet when Ford unveiled it at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show.

  • Automobili Lamborghini celebrates 60 years as an icon

    Sixty years ago, in an area that at the time was open countryside, construction of the Automobili Lamborghini factory began. The company was established on May 6, 1963, realizing Ferruccio Lamborghini’s dream of becoming a manufacturer of sports cars, an industry back then dominated by just a few brands.Right from the start, the founder and his very young engineers showed a passion for innovation and a desire to disrupt the dogmas of the sports car world, which were truly groundbreaking and led to a radical revolution. These values, which still form the cornerstone of the company today, would lead to the birth of legendary cars such as the Miura, a car which coined the term “supercar” and that has since inspired the entire automotive industry with its spirit and its styling. Over the years, Automobili Lamborghini has continued to evolve, creating icons of unique style, technology and performance, inspiring entire generations and millions of people by sharing its DNA and the values on which it was founded.On the occasion of its 60th anniversary, Automobili Lamborghini is organizing a series of events worldwide, each unique but all engaging customers and their Lamborghinis; the official Lamborghini Clubs; and the dealerships and fans around the world.
