That finish was set up for the photo op. The cars were more spread out as would be expected after 24 hours of racing. The order was given to group together to illustrate the 123 ending and Ford domination. The 1969 finish was much more exciting with Jackie Ickx winning over a Porsche 908 coupe by not much after 24 hours.

The GT40 (along with the Ferrari 330 P4) to me is arguably one of the best looking racing vehicles ever put on the track...and one of the best at winning.

I have a diecast model of that number 6 car in 1/12 scale or something like that very expensive but beautiful
