Born in Turin, Farina was the son of Giovanni Carlo Farina (1884–1957) who founded the Stabilimenti Farina coachbuilder.[3] He
began driving a two-cylinder Temperino, at the age of just nine. Farina became a Doctor of Political Science (although some sources Championships 1 (1950)
say engineering); he also excelled at skiing, football and athletics. He cut short a career as a cavalry officer with the Italian army to Wins 5
fulfil a different ambition: motor racing.[4][5][6][7][8] Podiums 20[1]
While still at university Farina purchased his first car, a second-hand Alfa Romeo, and ran it in the 1925 Aosta-Gran San Bernardo Career points 115 1⁄3 (127 1⁄3)[2]

Years 1953
Although he was noted for his driving style and intelligence, he had a petulant streak and disregard for his fellow competitors whilst Teams Scuderia Ferrari
on the race track. He was involved in two fatal accidents. The first was during the 1936 Grand Prix de Deauville, when he tried to
Best finish DISQ
pass Marcel Lehoux for second. Farina's Alfa Romeo 8C collided with Lehoux's ERA, causing the ERA to overturn and catch fire.
Lehoux was thrown out, received a fractured skull and died in hospital, while Farina escaped with minor injuries. Two seasons later, during the 1938
Gran Premio di Tripoli, László Hartmann's Maserati 4CM cut a corner in front of Farina. The cars collided and overturned. Farina survived without major
.[10][11][12]
injuries, but Hartmann died the following day
In 1938, the official Alfa Romeo team, Alfa Corse, returned to motor sport and Farina was a member. Driving the new Alfa Romeo 158 Voiturette in
1939, he won the Grand Prix d'Anvers, Coppa Ciano and the Prix de Berne, to become the Italian Champion for the third year in succession. The
following year, he won the Tripoli Grand Prix and finished second in the Mille Miglia for the thirdtime.[4][5][8][9][10]
He continued with Alfa Romeo for the 1951 season, but had to give best to Fangio, who secured the title for the Milanese marque. As for Farina, he finished the season in fourth place, with his only
world championship victory coming in the 1951 Belgian Grand Prix at the Spa-Francorchamps. Farina switched back to the Scuderia Ferrari for 1952, when Grand Prix racing switched to Formula 2
specification, but had to take second place to team leader Ascari. He won the non-championship Gran Premio di Napoli and Monza Grand Prix. Ascari's total domination of the championship had been a
bitter blow to Farina's self-image.[21] He also drove Tony Vandervell's Thinwall Special – a modified Ferrari 375 F1 car to second place in the end-of-season Woodcote Cup at
Goodwood.[25][26][27][4][8][9][10][28]
He remained at Ferrari for the 1953 season. Farina was involved in a large accident at the first race of the season, the Argentine Grand Prix. President Juan Perón had allowed free access to the race for
everyone. This meant the drivers had to race with hordes of spectators lining the circuit, and a young boy ran across the track while Farina was committed to a fast corner, the Curva Nor Este. Farina was
, killing seven and injuring many others.[10][29][30]
forced to take evasive action and swerved into the spectators standing on the exit of the corner
Farina's best result of the season was victory in the 1953 German Grand Prix. He took up the challenge against the works Maserati of Fangio and Mike Hawthorn when Ascari car lost a wheel. Other
non-Championship Formula One victories came in the Gran Premio di Napoli and Grand Prix de Rouen-les-Essarts. By now he had accepted that Ascari and Fangio were faster drivers than him,[10] and
Farina finally seemed to have harnessed his experience into a less win-or-bust approach to racing. This resulted in a strings of podium finishes, gaining third place in the World Championship. This year
saw the introduction of theWorld Sportscar Championship, and as part of the Scuderia Ferrari squad of drivers, Farina made a number of appears, winning twice. The first came in the 24 Heures de Spa-
Francorchamps, when he and Hawthorn had a winning margin of 18 laps, which amounted to about an advantage of close to 90 minutes. The second victory came in the next race, the 1953 1000km of
Nürburgring, this time partnered by Ascari, with a smaller margin of just under 15½ minutes. He also triumphed in the Daily Express Trophy race at Silverstone in another one-off race in the Thinwall
Special.[4][8][9][31][32][33]
Although he was now 47, a golden opportunity arose at Ferrari, when Ascari left the team, leaving Farina the team leader. After early season results including victories in the 1000 km Buenos Aires
sports car race, co-driven by the young Italian Umberto Maglioli, and Syracuse Grand Prix, he crashed heavily in the Mille Miglia whilst leading in his Ferrari 375 Plus. Just seven weeks later, and with
his right arm still in plaster, Farina raced in the 1954 Belgian Grand Prix. He was leading before the end of the first lap, dicing with Fangio's Maserati, until the ignition failed on his
Ferrari.[4][8][34][35][36] Later in the season he was badly injured in the Supercortemaggiore Grand Prix, a sports car race at Monza, as a consequence of which he spent 20 days in hospital.
He was back with Ferrari for the start of the 1955 season in Argentina, taking morphine injections to ease the pain. But the heat took its toll on all of the drivers. Farina pitted due to exhaustion, with his
Ferrari 625 being taken over by the team's spare driver, Maglioli. When José Froilán González pitted, a revived Farina was sent out in his place. Later in the race, González – who was back in his car –
crashed but rejoined and handed the car back to Farina, who brought it home in second. Third place in the 1955 Argentine Grand Prix went to Farina's original car which had been drivern by Maglioli
and Maurice Trintignant. After a third place in Belgium, Farina 'retired' mid-season, owing to the continued pain and the death of Ascari. He returned for the 1955 Italian Grand Prix, but his Scuderia
Ferrari-entered Lancia D50 suffered a tyre failure at 170 mph during a practice session, whilst on the Monza's new banking. The car spun, but Farina stepped out unhurt. Ferrari withdrew the car from the
[4][8][9][37][38]
event, and Farina did not start his final Grand Prix.
Farina entered the 1956 Indianapolis 500, with a six-cylinder Ferrari engine installed in a Kurtis Kraft chassis. The car, sponsored by Bardahl, was listed on the entry as a Bardahl-Ferrari. Qualifying for
the race was scheduled for four days during May. The second weekend saw heavy rain that cancelled the third day and left only a small amount of time for drivers to contest the remaining spaces of the
grid. This meant a few drivers didn't get a chance to qualify on the fourth day. Farina was one of them, and the project was deemed a failure. Farina elected to race a conventional Indy car in 1957, but he
had difficulty getting the car up to speed and experienced some handling problems. His teammate, Keith Andrews, stepped into the car for a test run, but crashed on the frontstretch, the car backed into
[4][5][8][9][39][40][41][42]
the inside wall and Andrews was crushed to death between the cowl and fuel tank. Farina withdrew from the event and never returned.

Following his retirement, Farina became involved in Alfa Romeo and Jaguar distributorships and later assisted at the Pininfarina factory
On his way to the 1966 French Grand Prix, Farina lost control of hisLotus Cortina in the Savoy Alps, nearAiguebelle, hit a telegraph pole and was killed instantly. He had been on his way to both watch
