Vintage 1952 Photo of Ascari and Farina on Ferrari 500 at the V Gran Premio dell'Autodromo di Monza 1952.
This is a vintage & original photo, taken by an unknown photographer, of the Ferrari 500's of Alberto Ascari (# 20) and presumably the # 24 of Nino Farina in the pits during the 1952 Formula 2 Grand Prix at Monza.
Although Alberto won the first heat, the camshafts of his Ferrari 500 failed in the second heat which effectively put him out of the race and Nino would go on to win the race.
The photo measures some 9.5 x 7 inches (24 x 18 cm) and is black & white.
1953 Photo of the Grand Prix of Italy at Monza with Fangio Ascari Farina Marimon on Ferrari and Maserati.
This is an original photo of Giuseppe "Nino" Farina on Ferrari 500, Alberto Ascari on Ferrari 500, Juan Manuel Fangio on Maserati A6GCM-53 and most probably Onofre Marimon also on Maserati A6GCM-53 during the final stages (maybe even the last lap!) of the 1953 Gran Premio d'Italia at the Autodromo di Monza.
Fangio would win the race ahead of Farina, Villoresi and Hawthorn, all on Ferrari.
The difference between Farina and Fangio was a mere 1.4 seconds while Villoresi and Hawthorn were 1 lap behind.
In the words of the Grand Master himself:Ascari, who stood between me and the victory I needed so badly, took the final curve very sharply and his Ferrari did a half spin. He was hit by Marimon. Farina, whom I had only just overtaken and was breathing down my neck, had to swerve to avoid hitting them. In that split second of danger I was through, winning literally in the 312th mile of a 312-mile race. There was such confusion when we crossed the line that the man didn't put down the chequered flag, so I did another lap with Farina behind me, but all the time I thought they had make a mistake. They say I was almost hysterical that day, and I'm not surprised, although as a rule I'm usually rather calm.
It measures some 9.5 x 7 inches (24 x 17.5 cm) and is black & white.
This appears to be a somewhat more recent print.
