Giuseppe Antonio 'Nino' Farina was always destined to be involved in the automotive world, though not necessarily as a driver.
His survival, Farina felt, was due not to good luck but to his deep belief in God and after every accident he would give prayers of thanks to the Virgin Mary.
Fangio remarked that "because of the crazy way Farina drove only the Holy Virgin was capable of keeping him on the track, and we all thought one day she would get tired of helping him." Even Enzo Ferrari (not always noted for his compassion) feared for Farina's future: "A man of steel, inside and out.

Giuseppe Farina was a cold and rather emotionless competitor who was 44-years old when it fell to him to win the first official World Championship in 1950 at the wheel of an Alfa Romeo 158.
Farina was widely credited with having pioneered the relaxed, arm-stretched driving style which would later be emulated by Stirling Moss.
By 1951 Farina, who was one of the more accident-prone drivers of his era, found himself now consistently eclipsed by Fangio and, although he soldiered on to the end of 1955, there were precious few more victories ahead.

 8W - Who? - Nino Farina
With unsportsmanlike conduct being in the centre of attention again in the past few years, Farina’s on-track character is often used as the main argument to support the claim that the ‘great past’ wasn’t all rosy and used to have its bullies too.
And there is no denying it — Giuseppe Farina, born from a famous family of coachbuilders, was a forceful driver who was the typical Italian gentleman outside of the cockpit but once in it transformed into a brutal aggressor.
In the end, Farina split the race wins with Fangio but while the Argentinian won most of the other non-championship races in which Alfa Corse competed (San Remo, Geneva and Pescara, against Farina’s wins at Bari and in the International Trophy) the Italian was more consistent in the Championship events that Fangio won.
