Porsche and Ford number of victories

If we assign 18 victories to Porsche, with the two edition of 1996 and 1997, when they were "only" the engine supplier, we have to assign also 2 victory at Ford for 1975 and 1980 victory.

The 1996 and 1997 cars were built by Porsche, even if TWR ran the program. The 1975 and 1980 cars were not built by Ford. The³5₉ (Talk) 20:06, 24 April 2017 (UTC)

1965 Winner

No dog in the fight, but should Ed Hugus be listed as a winner in 1965? According to this [1], he drove the winning car, but is not considered an official winner. RonSigPi (talk) 18:27, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

I thought I remembered there being a source explaining Hugus, but I cannot find it. The source you use states that he is believed to have driven the car, but there is no documentation to support the story, either because it didn't happen or because the team wishes to ignore that fact. I think, as this qualifies as WP:BLP, he should be removed until such time that there can be concrete evidence that he participated and not simply a story. The³5₉ (Talk) 21:04, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

Wrong Hans Hermann Linked for 1970 Winners

The link for Hans Hermann listed in the 1970 row of the table links to Hans Hermann the skier and not Hans Hermann the driver. 180.150.82.142 (talk) 07:20, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
