The following year he returned at the wheel of a Maserati and finished the season in second place. Fangio always made it his policy to garner the loyalty of the team mechanics. He told them that they would receive ten percent of any winnings. During practice for the Italian Grand Prix he complained of a severe vibration but come race day the problem had completely disappeared. The mechanics had switched cars in the middle of the night and given Fangio's vibrating car to his teammate Bonetto. In he moved to the Mercedes team and won his second World Championship. Fangio drove twelve Grands Prix for Mercedes winning eight times. This began a string of four straight titles. In he won a particularly brutal race at the Argentine Grand Prix. The three-hour race was run during a grueling heat wave. In the championship arrived at the German Grand Prix at the Nurburgring where it was generally acknowledge by the Grand Prix Circus that this would be Fangio's last season. He was determined to finish on top. Fangio and Hawthorn qualified one-two and the race looked set for an epic battle. The Maserati of Fangio started the race on half tanks and it was incumbent on him to build a large enough margin that would allow him to pit yet retain his lead. This he started to do, blistering the track at a record pace but Hawthorn and Collins in the Ferraris had other ideas. On the twelfth lap Fangio dove into the pits. Even though everyone in the Maserati pits was prepared the pit stop cost Fangio the lead when both Collins and Hawthorn thundered past. Finally the work was done and Fangio re-entered the fray. All seamed loss as Fangio was now 45 seconds behind the leading duo and few thought that even the great Fangio could make up this difference. Fangio was one of the few as he began chopping off large chunks of the gap to the leaders. In the Ferrari pit panic took hold as they pleaded for their drivers to go ever faster. Fangio would later say that he drove faster than he ever wanted to drive again. The lap record came tumbling down and he would soon be lapping at a faster average speed than that with which he had qualified! Both Collins and Hawthorn continued to race at a furious pace. Peter Lewis, the famous British journalist said that "he Fangio might almost have been pullingthem backwards on the end of a rope for on the twentieth lap Fangio sliced eleven seconds off their lead. Fangio caught Collins first and passed him on the inside but the Englishman returned the favor and pushed Fangio back into third. Just the Collins was hit in the eye by a stone thrown up by the Maserati's rear wheel but was saved by his goggles. Now it was Hawthorn's turn and still Fangio came on; actually driving straight on in one corner to pass force his way past Hawthorn. They would finish three seconds apart with Collins coming in third. Gerald Donaldson books and biography | Waterstones

Fangio would qualify on . Fangio flourished in racing when the world championship was in its infancy and he was a comparatively 'Old Man' - which is what his admiring rivals called the aging genius who won his last driving title in , when he was Most of his challengers were young enough to be his sons, and nearly all of them came from privileged backgrounds far removed from Fangio's humble origins in a remote corner of Argentina, in the dusty frontier town of Balcarce. His father and mother, hard-working immigrants from the Abruzzi region of Italy to whom Fangio was deeply devoted, raised their six children three boys and three girls to believe in God and the dignity of labour. Fangio credited his parents with instilling in him the virtues of honesty and integrity, self-discipline, respect for others and the sense of responsibility that characterized his approach to life. Eleven years after his birth on June 24, , Fangio started working as a mechanic and then spent nearly four decades in that trade, while also racing primitive self-prepared cars in incredibly arduous South American long distance races that made Formula One events seem like child's play. By his superhuman efforts in these marathons of madness held over thousands of miles for weeks at a time Fangio overcame astonishing hardships and astronomical odds to score many victories. When he went racing in Europe, at 38, he brought with him an unrivalled repertoire of mechanical understanding, competitive experience and clever racecraft. Formula One competition in much more sophisticated cars also enabled Fangio to hone his driving skills to the highest degree. A pioneering exponent of the four-wheel drift, he was wonderfully entertaining to watch, negotiating corners in fearsomely spectacular, yet completely controlled tyre-smoking powerslides that thrilled onlookers. Beyond his brilliant car control, Fangio's sheer brute strength and astonishing stamina enabled him to excel in an era that required heavy, hard-to- handle cars to be hauled around rough-hewn tracks for the three hour-plus endurance tests that were then the Grand Prix norm.

Gerald Donaldson is one of the elder statesmen of the motorsport history crowd, and in Fangio: The Life Behind the Legend , he shows why. Concise, detailed and well-written, it takes you through the life of the five-time World Champion from his squalid beginnings, through the immense effort of Argentina's Mecanica Nacional racing, and thence his introduction to Grand Prix racing and ultimate domination. At every stage Donaldson is informative, and the story he tells is interesting. I had of course Gerald Donaldson is one of the elder statesmen of the motorsport history crowd, and in Fangio: The Life Behind the Legend , he shows why. I had of course heard of what kind of racing Fangio had been into before Formula 1, but even so it was more than a little stunning to be taken through it at ground level and suddenly appreciate what it really means. Working for 48 hours straight to repair a Ford or Chevy coupe - usually lashed-up with an engine suitable for a fishing trawler - and then thrashing it along public roads for several Grand Prix distances is exhausting to read about, let alone do! Small wonder, then, that when he got to Europe and started entering pipsqueak Grand Prix races lasting "only" km, he was able to drive his car on the limit from green flag to chequered. Despite ticking all the boxes, however, the book is not perfect. I said Donaldson is informative and the story is interesting, but that doesn't mean Donaldson himself is interesting. A book about a man known as the Grand Old Master calls for a certain grandness of tone, and that is sorely lacking in Fangio. Donaldson seems determined to follow a journalist's ethic of "just the facts", and the resulting prose is disappointingly bland. None of Donaldson's own descriptions or phrases stick in the memory after putting the book down, and none of Fangio's magnificent wins really feel exciting. He also does a lot more telling than showing, especially in the early parts of the book, whether for lack of English-language quotes regarding Fangio's early career or just lack of space, I can't say. By Fangio's late career there are a lot more quotes from the people who were there, which makes for much better reading, but most of them can also be found in another of Donaldson's books, Formula 1 The Autobiography , which is the one I'd recommend. So overall, a well-written account of Juan Manuel Fangio, and one that must be read to understand the full picture of s Formula 1 - but probably not a book you'd read a second time for pleasure. Didn't realize what a road racer Fangio was before doing F1.
