Ken Miles came second in Le Mans, he didn’t win. He was born in Britain and was a talented race car engineer and driver. Miles ranked first in the 24 hours of Daytona and 12 hours of Sebring in 1966. He later died in a crash while testing the Ford J-car in late 1966. There has been a long rivalry between Ferrari and Ford, and it hit its peak in 1966 when Ford humiliated the Italians by coming first, second and third. This victory did not happen without a bit of controversy. Ken Miles was several kilometers ahead to bring an end to Ferrari's dominance in the Le Mans competition and also become the first driver to win the world's three most prestigious endurance races; the 24 Hours of Daytona, 12 hours of Sebring, and 24 Hours of Le Mans in a calendar year.
