Gordon Wilkins covers the world of motor racing.

Will the long run of Italian success at Le Mans end this weekend? No fewer than thirteen Fords may take the field against Enzo Ferrari on the Sarthe Circuit in France tomorrow afternoon. This is Ford's third consecutive bid to win Le Mans and already they hold the lap record.
