Amazing video thanks for posting, the following year Fangio moved to the Masarati Formula one team and came from 50 secs back after a disasterous pit stop to beat the Ferraris in what was widely regarded as the race of Fangio's life.
Imagine the carrousel with just a hedges to keep you on track ! I drove my Volvo 240 DL round this circuit with gay abandon in 1988 I might have been more circumspect with nothing but hedges and a few sticks to keep me from flying into the depths of the forest :-)
Wonderful Video. Its great to see these cars being pushed at their limit in their natural habitat. The ring looks much more intimidating with the hedge instead of guard rail.
The D Type's solid rear axle really hurt it at the Ring, but I give Jaguar credit for using it as a Le Mans tune up!
