I watched the TV documentary "AutoBiography: The Story of Ford vs Ferrari" before the movie. The engineering history that documentary detailed was fascinating. I was looking forward to some of that drama played out in more detail in the movie, but understandably it focused more on the people involved and especially the driver. Anyway, highly recommend that documentary. (hint: torrent is your friend)

Trying to find that, I came across a couple of other interesting ones:
There's "The 24 Hour War" and "Shelby American" on Netflix, and a couple on youtube:
