The corporate rivalry is positioned as a “war” by Henry Ford II (Tracy Letts). The Rolling Stones song Gimme Shelter, which was originally composed in 1969 as a critical response to the Vietnam War, plays without irony in the background as the Americans and British prepare to show the Italians their place.

While during the production of the film a controversy emerged that the makers 20th Century Fox wiped all evidence of the source material and erased the author A.J Baime’s credit from the production whose novel Go Like Hell: Ford, Ferrari, and Their Battle for Speed and Glory at Le Mans (2010) the film is based on.
