Gp Switzerland 1953

The Grand Prix starting grid

We're back to us, fans Fanta Formula 1, "as it would have been nice if" nostalgia, video games, sleepless nights and a general sense of fuck the world.

Today takes up the thread from where we left off.

1953, Ascari is leading the Formula One world championship, with victories at Zandvoort, Spa and Silverstone. The two-time world champion (1951 and 1952) but must contend with his teammates Giuseppe Farina, the 1950 champion, thanks to victory at the Nurburgring, and Luigi Villoresi, winner in Buenos Aires and France.

What's more, the pack of hounds behind the driver Monza is counting on Juan Manuel Fangio, Maserati's lieutenant, that up to now has had to deal with a fast car but very difficult to drive and very unreliable. Tremendous over the single lap, but soon settled in the race.

This race is decisive in the game because of valuation, which provides that a driver considers only the best 4 results as the season leaves a tremendous match point in the hands of Ascari. If he wins, is standard.

tests. Fangio lives up to its fearsome reputation as a man-pole position: it makes no effort to win the first position. Second, however, is Emmanuel de Graffenried, a person retiring pilot and constant companion, as well as brand Fangio. The Maserati here seems really on the ball! Only the third place Ascari in a Ferrari, followed by Marimon (Maserati another), Farina (Ferrari), Bonetto (Maserati), Hawthorn (Ferrari), Lang (Maserati) and finally in the ninth position on Villoresi Ferrari.

the race. Ascari part, as usual, very quickly, earning the top spot during the first round. Behind everything remains unchanged, with Villoresi that shows you have more of a problem to keep the car on the street. The cars go on howling through the woods, Bern, and the first plot twist - but it is not surprising, after all, no one - is the withdrawal of De Graffenried, 3rd at that time.

Ascari square drives and the fastest lap (worth one point we remember!) a 2'28 .4, digging a first mini-track of a dozen seconds on Fangio, Marimon, Farina, Bonetto and Hawthorn.

Around the 15th of 65 laps, a break is foreseen. Stop order Fangio, Farina, Bonetto and Marimon (which has very serious problems restarting the car and lost time and positions). Afterwards the leaders Ascari, who has since made a series of steps- monstre and earned more than a minute on his pursuers. After the stop of Hawthorn, a third of the race about the situation is this: 1. Ascari, 2. Fangio (1'29 .4), 3. Bonetto (1'39 .9), 4. Hawthorn (1'45 .6), 5. Farina (1'52 .6). Lang does not take much because pitfalls and overtaking Farina for a place among those who take points. Even Marimon, wild, pursues and engages a long duel with the Italian winner of which will see him on lap 27.

The sad retreat Villoresi

During the same round Villoresi, 8th and eternal struggle with the steering wheel of his Ferrari, just voiced by retreats for Ascari straight on the last corner before the main straight. For Ascari (with flour at the time 7th), becomes more important to win!

The second stop is planned around lap 30. ( This strategy basically divides the race into two: two mini-rounds of 15 laps and 35 laps of endurance. The engineers of the time thought it would be a good strategy, I have my doubts, but so ) Fangio anticipates a couple of laps. Ascari meanwhile is struggling with a very big problem: getting ready to dub Marimon, receives a sound sportella because of a previous driving error. Ascari was the worst and must anticipate the break, aligning it to the other, despite being significantly faster. They stop and also Farina, Bonetto, Lang, Marimon and Swaters (at that moment 6 °).

Halfway through the race, after all the hubbub of the pit stops, the situation is this: 1. Ascari, 2. Fangio (1'03 .8), 3. Bonetto (1'25 .8), 4. Marimon (1'48 .4), 5. Hawthorn (1'50 .1), 6. Farina more than two minutes, the last pilot to full speed.

No luck for Bonetto

Maserati claimed another prominent victim on lap 35. And 'nothing less than Bonetto, he has to say goodbye to a podium finish for almost certain failure of the right front suspension and the resulting off-piste, which reduces the car to a minimum. During the same round, Hawthorn Marimon and begin to engage in a spectacular duel, made of overtaking and controsorpassi, game trails, exploitation of doubles, studied the trajectories of millimeter. Now is the British to win over Argentina, while Ascari - exploiting the wake of the double Farina - file a split second on his fastest lap, leading him to 2'27 .4. The duel between the two has, unfortunately for the spectators, an epilogue on lap 39, when it finally overtakes Marimon Hawthorn and goes away.

Marimon before Hawthorn

The race, also because of the depletion of the riders due to various technical problems or errors after driving more than two hours notice, no longer offers some points of interest. Pilots manage their benefits, trying to bring home the best possible loot. Ascari stops for the final time at lap 48, but his lead is nothing short of abysmal.

At 60 ° around a demoralized Hawthorn probably lost the fight with Marimon, or just at the limit of his strength and his car is reached and exceeded by Farina, who thus ends 5 °, which is retained colon.

But it does not change the history of the World 1953. Ascari won the race, becoming the first World tricampione the history of Formula 1!
