		From 1927 to 1934, the number of races considered to have Grand Prix status exploded, jumping from five events in 1927 to nine events in 1929 to eighteen in 1934 (the peak pre-World War II year).

		The Grand Prix of Argentina was noteworthy as Moss, driving a Cooper, used one less pitstop and had to conserve his tires in the later stages of the race, just crossing the line with the canvas showing.

		In the late 1930s, however, Grand Prix racing was dominated by the Germans and the Ferrari-run Alfas rarely scored any good results, although Nuvolari's victory in 1935 at the Nurburgring stands out as a remarkable achievement.
		The season was marked by disputes between Farina and Varzi over which of them should be team leader although it was becoming clear that the fastest driver was actually Wimille.
		Early in the season Ducarouge was fired, the scapegoat for an incident in which the team was found to be running an empty fire extinguisher.

		Grand Prix success for the operation did not come quickly, although they took some consolation when Tazio Nuvolari's victory in the Mille Miglia was the first in which the event had been completed at an average speed in excess of 100kph.
		Throughout the 1933 season the spoils were again shared between the top three teams, although Nuvolari had by now decamped to Maserati, with Chiron taking his place with Alfa Romeo and quickly establishing himself as the dominant driver of the season.
		However the surprise of the season was a superhuman display by Tazio Nuvolari whose courage and enormous driving skill compensated for the technical inferiority of the Alfa P3.

	Welcome to the web site of the Maserati Club
		The extension of the 1934/36 Grand Prix formula to the end of 1937 had no serious effect at Maserati's HQ, for by the end of the 1936 season they had decided to give the large cars a miss and to turn their attention to 1½ litre racing and the Tipo 6C.
		The English-owned Tipo 6Cs had a poor season in comparison with the performance of the car when in continental hands, their sum total amounting to two thirds and two seconds, Johnny Wakefield being the pre-eminent man with third at Picardie, and second in the Phoenix Park 100 and in the JCC 200.
		With his death, much of the glory of the season's results was badly tainted, for Marazza was highly thought of as a future ace, and he would doubtless have been in the forefront in 1939 when the 16-valve car made its first appearance.

		In the 1983 San Marino Grand Prix, French drivers swept the podium for the third and last time in F1 history, a feat previously accomplished in South Africa in 1980 and France in 1982.

		Apart from his superb record in the Prix La Haye Jousselin, perhaps the most remarkable feature of Al Capone II's long career was that all but one of his 65 career starts was made at Auteuil.
