Stirling Moss journeyed straight from
Italy to France for the next race, a week later. At
Reims he was faced with the stern challenge of a large
number of highly competitive Ferraris as well as the
Gordini team. Fangio was back in the fold and joined
by his fellow Argentinian, Froilan Gonzalez. Fangio
was again in fine form and made the best start with
Ascari doing his best to keep up.
Almost
immediately,
the
Cooper
challenge evaporated completely. Both Aston and
Abecassis dropped out and Moss started a series of
pit-stops which dropped him right out of contention so
that he only completed just over half of the required
number of laps.
At the front, Fangio started to pull away
as he and Ascari traded fastest laps. Tadini lay third
and Trintignant fourth; followed by the other two
Gordinis in the order Manzon, Sommer. The latter
dropped out of the race a few laps later when his gear

lever broke, always an annoying fault. After ten laps,
Fangio was 23" ahead and he continued to increase
his lead despite Ascari lapping almost as fast.
However, after 14 laps, Fangio was suddenly out of the
race, his gearbox broken. Ascari could now relax a
little for he was nearly a minute ahead of Tadini and
much more than that ahead of Trintignant. He was in
the sole surviving Gordini when Manzon retired a lap
after Fangio. There were two other retirements late in
the race but both were classified as finishers in the
French way of things.
At the front, Ascari continued to lead
comfortably and, in the end, ran out the winner by a
large margin. Tadini and Trintignant were the only
unlapped runners. Further back John Heath was
having a steady drive into fifth place and realizing the
potential of Formula 2 for the small-scale constructor.
This realisation would lead to the HWM - Britain's first
real step on the stairway to Grand Prix success

The next Italian race of the season provided a
rude awakening for the host nation when only two
Italian drivers were entered. Ascari and Villoresi were
hamstrung by the unreadiness of the Lancia Grand
Prix cars while there was no sign of Farina. Despite
this a good field assembled on the Adriatic coast.
Practice saw the Ferraris of Gonzalez and
Trintignant heading the list but their third driver,
Maglioli never impressed as much in single-seaters as
he did in sports cars. So Behra got onto the front row
while Marimon headed the challenge of the Maserati
team.
Trintignant made the best start but Gonzalez
got past him after two laps and was never thereafter
headed. At the opposite end of the field, "Bira" was
slow to get away while Mantovani had to stop in order

Marimon was third at first followed by Behra
and Mieres. Manzon, Schell, Maglioli and Simon were
next in line with "Bira" still at the back. Behra
overtook Marimon on lap 17 but his lead did not last
long for he spun so that Marimon got back into third
place again. He celebrated by setting the fastest lap of
the race.
Later on, Marimon stopped for a water hose to
be repaired and this enabled Behra to secure his third
place although he was never in a position to challenge
the leading Ferraris. So the race ended with Gonzalez
comfortably clear of Trintignant and only Behra still
on the same lap. At this time it seemed to all that the
Ferrari was a potent weapon well able to withstand
the forthcoming challenge from Lancia and Mercedes.
