45. Maserati 250 f
Maserati
A huge crowd turned out at Silverstone to see if Mercedes could repeat their Reims rout. In the end, just two silver cars arrived for Fangio and Kling. Maserati had nine cars, whilst Ferrari had three for the experienced trio of Hawthorn, Gonzales and Trintignant. Fangio set Silverstone’s fastest ever lap, breaking to 100 mph barrier with a lap of 100.35 mph. It was Gonzalez who led away and held the lead until the flag. Behind him, Fangio passed Hawthorn for second but after colliding several times with oil drums in a difficult handling car he dropped to fourth. Moss took over the position but retired with rear axle problems, leaving Hawthorn to follow home for a Ferrari 1-2 and young Marimon to take his first podium place. Luigi Villoresi dropped out with engine problems after 40 laps.
