Abstract
In the world of endurance racing, there is one that stands out above the rest and is
considered the "queen", the 24 Hours of Le Mans. In this project I have studied the
technical, strategic and design reasons that allowed Ford to end the Ferrari hegemony
and win the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1966, with the GT40 model, and how to
extrapolate the history of 1966 for a team that wants to participate in current
competitions.
The first part of the project
from which the second part is extracted, focused on the evolution of motorsports an

budget.
I first made a brief historical analysis to place the study in the time and situatio
which the events took place, to understand why it was so important for Ford to win at
Le Mans, what were the reasons that led him to participate in it and what provoked
such a disproportionate rivalry between

In the second part of the project
1966 to the present, dedicating a specific section to the 24 Hours of Le Mans. As for
the evolution of motorsports, I have studied the differences between the regulations,
the vehicles and the technologies used in the past and the current ones. In order to
extract what could be the implementation of a competition team, I have focused on
different competitions such as Formula 1, e
(WRC), in order to cover the main disciplines of motorsports.
Finally, the study has had a total cost of just under 24.800€; obviously this cost is only
from the theoretical study carried out and does not include the implementation
neither the practical part of any of the section of the project,
