	Aston Martin Chassis Numbers
		Salvadori June 1954 Silverstone meeting into 2nd place (when the car had the 1953 air intake partially blocked), Dennis Poore set a class record with the car at Prescott and Salvadori drove the car to 5th place at Aintree in October (by when the nose had been reprofiled to incorporate the smaller 1954 air intake).
		Salvadori finished 7th at the May Silverstone meeting and it was driven by Collins/'B. Bira' at Le Mans(crashed.) rebuilt for 1955 with 'Gothic Arch' open body, Girling disc brakes and Borrani offset wheels and registered 62 EMU.
		Salvadori finished 2nd in the International Trophy at Silverstone, retired in the Dutch Grand Prix, finished 6th in the British Grand Prix and 6th in the Portuguese Grand Prix.

		During practice, however, Roy Salvadori came within six seconds of Ascari's qualifying time in the Ferrari 500, which was considered reasonably close considering the disparities between the Ferrari and the Connaught.
		In the end, Claes was out after 7 laps with fuel line problems, Salvadori retired on lap 34 with throttle problems and although Fairman and McAlpine were still running at the finish they had not accumulated enough laps to be classified, a quiet end to the Grand Prix portion of the 1953 season.
		It was wet and Salvadori retired his Connaught on the first lap and Ken McAlpine, who was driving his trusty A1 slid off the course on lap 8 and overturned A1 into an earthen bank, no doubt adding to the Patron's growing disenchantment with Team Connaught as the 1953 season came to an end.

		Salvadori leaped from his Cooper, dashed to the pits, got the replacement wheel, rushed back to the car, changed the wheel himself, and re-entered the race!

	Roy Salvadori - Grand Prix Racing - the whole story
		Born in England of Italian parents, Salvadori's racing career began in 1947 with a 2.9-litre Alfa Romeo.
		From 1954 to 1956 Roy handled a Maserati 250 owned by Greene, taking a succession of good placings in predominantly non-championship events before being asked to drive for the works Cooper team, and later the abortive front- engined Aston Martin DBR4 which did not arrive on the scene until 1959.
		One evening Bira said to Roy: 'Would you mind taking my sister-in-law to bed tonight?' Salvadori retorted mischievously, 'I'd rather have your wife!' Bira pondered this for a moment, before replying: 'No, I don't think that's on, Roy.

	1962 NZGP
		There was one thing certain at the end of the race, that on the day no other driver of the present could have lived with Moss, and it is doubtful whether another driver of any previous era could have beaten him.
		And incredibly the next car was Moss, who had raced down the outside of the field from the back of the grid, nipped back between the markers, and popped into seventh place.
		An eager Salvadori jumped at the opportunity and snatched fourth as Bandini extricated himself from the hay bales, losing two laps in the process.

		The opposition came from Vanwall, BRM and Cooper and the front row of the grid boasted one car from each major team with Stirling Moss (Vanwall) fastest from Harry Schell (BRM), Roy Salvadori (Cooper) and Hawthorn.
		Moss was second with Hawthorn, Schell, Brooks and Salvadori in a tight bunch behind him.
		On lap 26 Moss's Vanwall blew its engine and so Collins was left in the comfortable position of having his team mate and friend behind him.

		A highlight of this year's festival is the historic reunion of two racing legends, Roy Salvadori and Carroll Shelby, who teamed up to win the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans race in an Aston Martin DBR1.
		The British Salvadori might have ended his career at the Silverstone track in 1951: He suffered severe head injuries at Stowe Corner and was read the last rites.
		But Salvadori survived and went on to a long and successful career that lasted until 1965.

		The rear deck at the start and the front of the Porsche in their mirrors was about all the competition saw of Bonnier.
		This suddenly put John Surtees and then Roy Salvadori into second place - the latter when his teammate had the gearshift lever break.
