Did Ken Miles lose Le Mans?
Ken Miles was a race car driver who tragically died in 1966 while testing a Ford J Car at the Riverside International Raceway. In the 2019 film Ford v Ferrari, his story was told and his attempt to win the 24 Hours of Le Mans race in 1966 was featured. In the film, it appears that he was denied victory due to a technicality and his dream of winning was not realised. However, the true story is slightly different and while Miles was not officially declared the winner, he and his co-driver Denny Hulme did receive the checkered flag first. Unfortunately, due to a misunderstanding, the race was declared a tie and neither driver was awarded the victory. Thus, Ken Miles lost the race, but not due to any fault of his own.

Others argue that it is not a sport because the drivers are not active enough and the cars are doing most of the work. Ultimately, it seems that Formula One can be considered a sport, but the definition of a sport is a subjective matter.
