In 1967, Ford paid £100,000 for a brand-new V8 it had never seen
run. It won its very first race, then went on to win 154 more.

James Pumphrey, Vin Anatra and Zach Redpath dig into how Henry
Ford II, Colin Chapman's Lotus and a tiny engine shop called
Cosworth built the DFV, and how Ford then sold it to anyone who
wanted one. Suddenly small teams could beat the giants, and names
like Williams and McLaren got their shot. Plus how that thread
runs from Jackie Stewart's team to Jaguar to Red Bull, and Ford's
return to F1 in 2026.

You Better Win: The History of Ford Racing, an 8-part series from
Ford Racing and Speeed. Next up: NASCAR.
