In memoriam Juan Manuel Fangio ... Fangio has often been called the best racing driver of all time: On June 24, 2011, the 24-time world champion of Grand Prix racing and 5-time Formula 1 world champion would have turned 100. On this occasion, Günther Molter, former Daimler press officer, in conjunction with specialist journalist Frank Wiesner, presented an elaborately designed illustrated book and traced the success story of one of the most impressive personalities in racing. Previously unpublished images from the archives of Daimler AG and from private ownership as well as interviews with contemporary witnesses who are still alive complete this unique documentation, which not only illuminates the stages of a unique career but also describes the formative decades of international racing history.
