I can't say that I recognize Henry in any of the scenes.

You don't see Henry Ford in any of the motion picture portions of the YouTube video because it is actually modern footage. It was recycled from a documentary on the race - I saw it on public television or cable television ten or fifteen years ago.

The documentary was shot and shown in color and included a recreation of the race, parts of which are shown in the YouTube video.

The footage in the YouTube video has been altered - changed to black and white and pixilated, etc. - to make it look like historic footage.
