375 F1

Ascari finished second, after his car stopped and he took Serafini’s, sharing the points. The first win finally came on 14 July 1951 in the English GP at Silverstone. The Argentinean José Froilàn Gonzalez managed to beat the Alfa Romeos, taking the 375 F1 to victory. Two weeks later, Ascari won the German Grand prix and, later, at Monza. But it wasn’t enough to overtake Fangio for the drivers’ title, due to the defeat at Barcellona when the tyres gave out.
