From a Ford GT40 in 1967 driven by AJ Foyt and Dan Gurney to a Harrods BMW McLaren from 1995 driven by Bell, Bell and Wallace. Don't see the link?

The sister GT40 of Dan Gurney was driven by..... dum dum dah.... Bruce McLaren. Am I getting called on the level of tenuous-ness?!

Well, you set the rules! In my eyes you went one step too far, but starting from the McLaren, I give you this:

Ok Vince, I agree with you actually. Now am I going a step too far saying DErek Bell - involved in the Le Mans film?

No, although not common knowledge (well on this forum it probably is), that is only one step.
Kremer driven by Derek Bell, and Bell was involved in the Le Mans movie.

Although thinking of it, maybe two steps may be allowed too? After a little research I must have come across the Ford GT40-Bruce McLaren-F1 GTR link.

Using the imdb listing of all those involved driving in it (the transportation department), I came upon one, in my eyes interesting name.

Eddie Irvine, while driving a TS010, punted it off the track at the Porsche Curves in Saturday morning warm-up in '93 and put the driver in hospital.
