Pivotal moments in that eventufl summer of 1955 include Stirling Moss and Denis Jenkinson winning the Mille Miglia, Alberto Ascari crashing into the harbour at the Monaco Grand Prix, the spectator catastrophe at Le Mans, and Juan Manuel Fangio's apparent gift of victory to Moss in the British Grand Prix.
