A History Of Motor Racing brings you the story of the names that were to change the direction of the Grand Prix and Sports Car racing history - the cars the drivers the characters the big race glory and the tragedy. Having spent a number of years in development the 250F first raced and won in the 1954 Argentine Grand Prix driven by Juan Manuel Fangio whilst Stirling Moss raced his own privately owned 250F for the full 1954 season. 1955 saw a setup with 5-speed gearbox as well as SU fuel injection (240 bhp) and Dunlop disc brakes. Jean Behra ran this in a five-member works team which included Luigi Musso and in 1956 Stirling Moss won at the Italian Grand Prix and the Monaco Grand Prix in his private car. In 1956 three 250F T2 cars first appeared for the works drivers. Developed by Giulio Alfieri using lighter steel tubes they sported a slimmer stiffer body and the new 315 bhp (235 kW) V12 engine. But in 1957 the car and perhaps the greatest racing driver ever to grace the sport were reunited and Juan Manuel Fangio drove to four more championship victories including his legendary final win at German Grand Prix at the N''rburgring (Aug. 4 1957) where he overcame a 50 second deficit in just 20 laps passing the race leader on the final lap to take the win. 1957 turned out to be the last hurrah for Maserati as the company was drowning under a sea of red ink. Luckily the Italian government stepped in and placed Maserati under a Controlled administration but not so luckily the works racing team was disbanded. Except for those cars remaining in private hands the end of the Maserati 250F had arrived.
