25 Sep 2023|114 views
Maserati has marked 70 years since the Italian Grand Prix on 13 September 1953, where Juan Manuel Fangio celebrated his first and only victory of the season in the final race at Monza behind the wheel of the Maserati A6GCM. The anniversary is marked as Maserati continues to expand its involvement in motorsport with the MC20 GT2 race car.
The Argentine race car Driver is held in the same regard as motorsport legends including Senna and Schumacher - the latter of whom Fangio ceded the crown of the most titled Formula One Driver to after almost 50 years.
The 1953 Italian Grand Prix not only wiped away a subdued season for the Argentine world champion but was also the first of many more victories to come - he would eventually go on to win his second world title the following year.
Maserati has recently announced that it would be returning to GT competitions, after unveiling its 621bhp MC20 GT2, which is set to participate in the 2024 season of the Fanatec GT2 European Series. The firm additionally only recently revealed its 724bhp MCXtrema - an MC20-based track-only car, of which only 62 examples are to be built.
