1957-1958 Formula One World Championships (partially found footage of Formula One races; 1957-1958)
The 1957 and 1958 Formula One World Championships were the eighth and ninth FIA-sanctioned top-level Grand Prix racing seasons. The 1957 season saw Juan Manuel Fangio achieve his fourth back-to-back title with Maserati, and his fifth and final World Championship overall, marking his final full season in Formula One. The 1958 season witnessed a duel between Ferrari's Mike Hawthorn and Vanwall's Stirling Moss, with Hawthorn edging out his fellow Brit by one point to claim his sole World Championship. The 1957 Monaco and British Grand Prix received some television coverage, while five 1958 races, including the Monaco, French, British, Italian, and Moroccan Grand Prix.
1957 Formula One Season
1957 Monaco Grand Prix
The 1957 Monaco Grand Prix was the second race of the 1957 Formula One Season. Occurring on 19th May at the Circuit de Monaco, the race was ultimately won by Maserati's Juan Manuel Fangio, who generally controlled proceedings after Vanwall's Stirling Moss and Ferrari's Peter Collins and Mike Hawthorn crashed out early in the race.
It was the fourth running of the event as part of Formula One following its debut on the calendar in 1950.[1] It was also the 15th in Grand Prix history.[2][1] Lasting 105 laps,[3] the Monaco Grand Prix remains an integral event of the Formula One calendar, including being prestigious enough to be classified as part of the Triple Crown of Motorsport, alongside the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the Indianapolis 500.[1][4]
Heading into the race, the motor racing world was in mourning following the fatal accident of Ferrari's Alfonso Portago and Edmond Nelson at the Mille Miglia, which also claimed the lives of nine spectators.[5] During the Grand Prix weekend, Maserati entered their new six-cylinder cars, while Ferrari missed the opening day of qualifying as their cars were not ready.[6] Onlookers noted the vast presence of green cars, indicating greater British influence in Formula One.[6] Among those driving them was Moss, who had switched from Maserati to Vanwall.[7] Nevertheless, Fangio achieved pole position in an Italian car, with a time of 1:42.7, with the six-cylinder design deemed competitive for Monaco.[6][7][3] Such was Fangio's fast time that it actually deterred the younger drivers from setting any further lap times that day.[6] Nobody was able to beat Fangio's time the following day, with Collins and Moss lining up second and third respectively out of the top 16 fastest competitors.[6][7][3] With only 16 drivers allowed to race, but with 20 cars entered, four drivers failed to qualify.[6][3] These included Roy Salvadori, Andre Simon, Luigi Piotti, and Les Leston.[6][3]
The Race
With the starting order decided, the 1957 Monaco Grand Prix commenced on 19th May.[3] Moss had issues prior to the start, requiring a push so that his Vanwall could restart.[6] Nevertheless, he and the other 15 drivers jumped the start, with Moss taking the lead through the hairpin.[6][7][5][3] Collins then passed Fangio for second, and started closing-in on Moss.[6][7] Two laps later, Moss was still leading, but as he travelled down the chicane, he ended up making contact with the barriers.[6][5][7][3] The resulting crash forced Collins to take evasive action; he avoided the debris, but the barricades situated at the harbour's edge.[6][5][7][3] Fangio took the lead, while Vanwall's Tony Brooks slowed down to avoid a collision.[6][5][7][3] As he did, Hawthorn crashed into his rear wheel, breaking the Ferrari's front wheel and brake drum before colliding with Collins' car.[6][5][7][3]
Following this, Fangio experienced few challenges to his lead.[6][5][7][3] While Brooks was around 5-6 seconds behind, he generally seemed unwilling to properly duel with the defending champion.[6][5] By lap 50, Fangio was now 20 seconds ahead of Brooks, which extended to 48 seconds as Brooks lost ground by around two seconds per lap.[6] The race's main action therefore situated on third place, with Ferrari's Wolfgang von Trips, Cooper-Climax's Jack Brabham, and Maserati's Masten Gregory all vying for it.[5][6][7] Von Trips appeared to have the upper hand, but retired on lap 96 following an engine failure, which led to him losing controlling and destroying a wall in the process.[5][6][7][3] It seemed then that Brabham was to secure his first ever podium, which would have also been the first for a rear engine car.[5][6][7] However, despite being well-ahead of Gregory, the Cooper's engine suddenly failed with a few laps remaining due to a fuel pump issue.[7][5][6][3]
Brooks meanwhile had closed the gap to around 25.2 seconds, but Fangio remained unchallenged in front.[3][6][5] He therefore claimed victory and eight points in the Drivers' Championship, while also scoring another point for setting the fastest lap.[6][5][7][3] Brooks scored Vanwall's first podium with second, while Gregory became the first American driver to reach the podium in a non-Indianapolis 500 World Championship race.[5][6][7][3] Connaught-Alta's Stuart Lewis-Evans and Ferrari's Maurice Trintignant claimed the final points positions in fourth and fifth respectively, while Brabham pushed his Cooper over the line to be classified sixth.[6][5][7][3] Post-race, Fangio explaining how he fended off Brooks, stating "I decided to pile on the pressure so he would lose heart. As the laps went by he could see he was not gaining and he eased off."[5]
1957 British Grand Prix
The 1957 British Grand Prix was the fifth race of the 1957 Formula One Season. Occurring on 20th July at the Aintree Circuit, the race would ultimately be won by Stirling Moss and Tony Brooks in a shared drive for Vanwall, marking the first Formula One World Championship victory with a British car.
It was the eighth running of the event within Formula One, with the race lasting 90 laps.[8][9][10] The tenth British Grand Prix overall, the event has remained an annual race on the Formula One calendar, primarily taking place at Silverstone, although Aintree and Brands Hatch have also hosted the event.[8] The 1957 edition was also given the European Grand Prix title.[11]
Heading into the race, Vanwall's top two drivers, Moss and Tony Brooks, were recovering from a sinus infection and an accident at Le Mans respectively.[11] Neither had raced at the previous French Grand Prix.[12] The cars proved competitive in qualifying, with Moss achieving pole position with a time of 2:00.2.[11][12][10] Maserati meanwhile stuck with its six cylinder design, after its 12 cylinder proved uncompetitive in previous Grand Prix.[11] Jean Behra, the pre-race favourite, proved the fastest for Maserati, starting second, with Brooks lining up third.[13][11][12][10] Maserati's Juan Manuel Fangio qualified fourth out of 19 competitors; he was also reportedly not 100%, with his car having broking down at the previous Grand Prix, with him also recovering from a gastric issue.[13][12][11][10] In qualifying, one incident saw an Aston Martin DB3S enter the track, with its passenger holding a camera to film the action surrounding them.[11] Motor Sport noted how strange this was, since it not only obstructed a qualifying session, but the Aston Martin itself flew a white flag that indicated it was an ambulance.[11]
The Race
With the starting order decided, the 1957 British Grand Prix commenced on 20th July.[10] The field was close together on the opening lap with Behra initially gaining the upper hand, but Moss repassed him on the opening lap and began to extend the gap.[12][11][13][10] Brooks meanwhile lost third to Ferrari's Mike Hawthorn, and lost further ground five laps in as his legs were still suffering from the Le Mans crash.[11] Fangio also experienced a bad start, and seemed unlikely to challenge for the win.[12][13][11] By lap 10, Moss had seemingly recovered from his infection, having achieved a 7.5-second gap ahead of Behra, extending it to nine by lap 20.[11][12] A lap later however, Moss entered the pits with concerns that his Vanwall was suffered a magneto issue.[11][12][13] After the mechanics made some modifications, Moss re-joined, albeit now down in seventh.[11][12] Ultimately, the Vanwall suffered a more serious misfire, forcing Moss to re-enter the pits.[11][12][13][10] He then took over Brooks' car on lap 26, with the latter admitting he was not expecting to race the full duration due to his condition issues.[11][12][13][10] Moss re-joined in ninth.[13][11][12]
With Behra in first, Moss began to move back through the order, including passing Fangio on lap 35.[11][12][13][10] He was helped as some drivers like Ferrari's Peter Collins began to retire following mechanical issues.[12][11][10] Behra meanwhile led strongly ahead of Hawthorn, while also being a minute ahead of Moss.[11][12][13] By lap 45, Behra led by nine seconds, with Fangio retiring four laps later following a broken valve gear.[11][13][12][10] However, Moss, now lying in fourth, began to deplete the gap between himself and the leader, setting the fastest lap multiple times to reduce the distance to 35 seconds by lap 65.[11][13][10] Just as he passed his teammate Stuart Lewis-Evans for third on lap 70, he suddenly ended up in the lead.[11][12][13][10] The reason was that Behra's Maserati suffered a spectacular clutch and flywheel failure, with debris causing Hawthorn's left rear tyre to be punctured before he could take the lead.[11][13][12][10]
Moss was now unchallenged in front, but Vanwall were denied a 1-2 as Lewis-Evans entered the pits following a throttle linkage failure on lap 73.[11][12][13][10] By lap 79, Moss was around 40 seconds ahead of nearest challenger Ferrari's Luigi Musso.[11] Musso reduced the gap to 25.6 seconds by the race's end, but that allowed Moss to claim the first Formula One World Championship victory for a British car.[11][13][12][10] As his result was a shared drive, he and Brooks were deemed joint-winners and shared four points each, Moss earning another for setting the fastest lap.[14][10] According to Moss, Fangio was the first to congratulate him.[13] Musso took second, with Hawthorn third.[12][11][13][10] Collins finished fourth after having taken over Maurice Trintignant's car, but the Brit did not complete enough laps to be eligible for points, allowing the Frenchman to score all three.[14][10][11] Cooper-Climax's Roy Salvadori took the final points position by pushing his car over the line to finish fifth, thus scoring the first World Championship point for Cooper and for a rear engine car.[13][10][11]
1958 Formula One Season
1958 Monaco Grand Prix
The 1958 Monaco Grand Prix was the second race of the 1958 Formula One Season. Occurring on 18th May at the Circuit de Monaco, the race was ultimately won by Maurice Trintignant in a Cooper-Climax, capitalising when three other race leaders retired. The event also marked the debut of two-time champion Graham Hill. It lasted 100 laps,[15]
Heading into the race, it appeared the BRMs were most competitive during qualifying, being lead by Jean Behra.[16] However, it was Vanwall's Tony Brooks that achieved pole position, surprising BRM posting a time of 1:39.8.[16][15] Behra lined up second, while Cooper were also satisfied with the performance of their top cars, with Jack Brabham qualifying third.[16][15] Further down the grid, future two-time champion Graham Hill made his debut for Lotus-Climax, posting a time worthy of 15th place after struggling with the Lotus' brakes.[16][15]
As with previous Monaco Grand Prix, only the 16 fastest cars were allowed to compete.[16][15] Whereas the majority of factory cars easily made it into the race, most independents were coming nowhere close, with the exception of Trintignant qualifying fifth for Rob Walker Racing.[17][16][15] Among the 14 drivers that failed to qualify included future Formula One Group Chief Executive Bernie Ecclestone in a Connaught-Alta; Maserati's Maria Teresa de Filippis, who became the first woman to enter a Formula One World Championship event; and Maserati's Louis Chiron, who would have broken his record of being the oldest driver to compete in a Grand Prix that he set at the 1955 Monaco Grand Prix.[18][19][20][15][16]
The Race
With the starting order decided, the 1958 Monaco Grand Prix commenced on 18th May.[15] Cooper-Climax's Roy Salvadori, who qualified fourth, made a strong start that saw him briefly lead.[17][16] However, he went too fast heading into the Gasworks hairpin, allowing Behra to retake the lead on the opening lap.[16][17][15] Salvadori then lost three laps following a steering-arm issue.[16] Behra faced little competition from second place Brooks, the Frenchman maintaining a consistent gap ahead of the Brit.[16][18] Ferrari's Mike Hawthorn moved up the grid, including passing Stirling Moss' Vanwall for third.[17][16][18] Hawthorn then passed Brooks for second on lap 18, with Brooks forced to retire following a spark plug issue that affected his engine, leaving him unable to restart uphill.[16][17][15] Moss was now the only Vanwall driver on track, and began to close in on Hawthorn and Behra.[16] The latter then retired after 28 laps following a brakes issue, leaving Hawthorn in the lead.[16][17][18][15] He would only hold onto it for five laps before Moss passed him on lap 33.[16][17][15]
Moss only led until lap 38, when he too was forced to retire following an engine issue caused by a valve gear issue.[16][18][17][15] Hawthorn was now 30 seconds in front of second place Trintignant, the latter fending off the Ferraris of Luigi Musso, Peter Collins, and Wolfgang von Trips.[16][18][17] Suddenly, the lone Cooper driver was in first, as Hawthorn's Ferrari's fuel pump had snapped off its mounting on the engine.[16][17][18][15] Hill retired from his first event with a broken halfshaft, while Von Trips was eliminated after 91 laps following a failed engine.[16][15] While Musso managed to close the gap somewhat, Trintignant was given the instruction to press-on, which he did to control proceedings for the remaining 53 laps.[17][15][16][18] He therefore claimed victory and eight points in the Drivers' Championship.[16][18][17][15] This was his second Monaco win after 1955, with this also being the second-consecutive win for a rear engine car, suggesting a revolution was occurring.[17][18][16] Musso and Collins finished second and third respectively, with Brabham and BRM's Harry Schell claiming the final points positions in fourth and fifth respectively.[15][16] Hawthorn meanwhile scored a point for setting the fastest lap.[15] Following the first two races, Musso now led the Drivers' Championship with 12 points, four ahead of Moss and Trintignant.[21][16]

1958 British Grand Prix
The 1958 British Grand Prix was the seventh race of the 1958 Formula One World Championship. Occurring on 19th July at the Silverstone Circuit, the race would ultimately be won by Ferrari's Peter Collins, marking his final victory in Formula One. The race lasted 75 laps.[22]
Heading into the race, the Vanwalls appeared to be the most competitive in qualifying.[23][24] Its top driver Stirling Moss achieved pole position with a time of 1:39.4, setting a new lap record for Silverstone.[24][25][26][23][22] Moss was therefore confident he would hold the advantage over the Ferraris for the race, with him also considered the pre-race favourite.[24][25] BRM's Harry Schell surprised onlookers by qualifying in second, with Cooper-Climax's Roy Salvadori in third.[24][23][22] Collins meanwhile would start sixth out of 20 competitors.[24][23][22] It, along with other unremarkable performances, had made Ferrari concerning that Collins was losing his competitive edge.[26] Only with Luigi Musso's fatal accident at the 1958 French Grand Prix did Collins keep his top seat at the team.[26]
The Race
With the starting order decided, the 1958 British Grand Prix commenced on 19th July.[22] Salvadori headed into first, but was re-passed by Schell and Moss.[24] Collins, despite his low starting position, also made an exceptional start, taking the lead on the opening lap through Copse Corner.[24][23][26][25][22] Moss was now sandwiched between two Ferraris, with fellow title rival Mike Hawthorn seeking to make it a Ferrari 1-2.[23][24][25][26] The Brit nevertheless faced issues immediately when oil occasionally leaked from the left side of the Ferrari's bonnet.[23] Despite Moss' best efforts, he simply could not challenge Collins up in front, with Hawthorn also making things difficult.[23][25][24][26] It appeared Ferrari's plan was to force Moss to press-on and potential ruin the Vanwall's engine in an attempt to match Collins' pace.[24][25][23] On lap 26, the plan was successful when Moss retired following an engine failure, promoting Hawthorn to second and Salvadori to third.[24][25][23][26][22]
For the remaining laps, Ferrari generally controlled proceedings.[23][25][24][26][22] While Hawthorn again experienced oil issues that forced a re-fill, he nevertheless was well-ahead of Salvadori.[23][24][25] Collins faced little pressure, even from Hawthorn, and took what many considered to be an unexpected victory for Ferrari considering the British teams' growing dominance of the sport.[24][23][25][26][22] He gained eight points, while Hawthorn took seven after also posting the fastest lap.[23][25][24][22] Collins had led every lap, in what would be his third and final World Championship victory.[27][23][24] It was also the first instance of a British driver winning the British Grand Prix at Silverstone following the Second World War.[24] Salvadori was engaged in a duel with Vanwall's Stuart Lewis-Evans, having just edged him out to finish third and fourth respectively.[23][24][26][22] Schell claimed the final points position with fifth.[22][23][24]
Hawthorn's result meant that he now took the lead in the Drivers' Championship, accumulating 30 points compared to Moss' 23.[28][23][24] In the Constructors' Championship, Ferrari now led Vanwall 36 to 25.[28] For Collins, this would ultimately be his penultimate Grand Prix; on 3rd August 1958, he suffered a fatal accident at the German Grand Prix, aged 26.[29][25][24]
1958 Italian Grand Prix
The 1958 Italian Grand Prix was the tenth race of the 1958 Formula One World Championship. Occurring on 7th September at the Monza Circuit, the race would ultimately be won by Vanwall's Tony Brooks, preventing Ferrari's Mike Hawthorn from claiming the Drivers' Championship at the event.
It was the eighth running of the event as part of the Formula One calendar, with the race lasting 70 laps.[30] The 28th edition in Grand Prix history,[31] the Italian Grand Prix has been held at Monza for all bar one instance in 1980 since Formula One's inception in 1950,[32] and has garnered a reputation for being the "home" Grand Prix of Ferrari.[33]
Heading into the race, Hawthorn led Vanwall's Stirling Moss in the Drivers' Championship, accumulating 36 points to Moss' 32.[34] He would become champion if he won the Italian Grand Prix and Moss failed to score.[35][36] Ferrari itself was greatly affected by the deaths of two of its drivers that season, Luigi Musso and Peter Collins passing away following accidents at the French and German Grand Prix respectively.[35] Therefore, it decided to place Formula 2 driver Phil Hill in one of its now-available top seats.[37][35][36]
It was Vanwall that initially proved more competitive for the event, however, with Moss achieving pole position with a time of 1:40.5.[36][30][37] Indeed, his only issue during qualifying was damaging an engine after missing a gear change.[36] Directly behind him was teammate Brooks, with Hawthorn lining up third.[30][37][36] Hill's first time qualifying for Ferrari ended with him placing seventh, surprising even Enzo Ferrari with his performance.[36][37][30] Maria Teresa de Filippis, who became the first woman to race in a World Championship event after qualifying for the 1958 Belgian and Portuguese events, entered a private Maserati for the race, where she would start 21st and last.[36][30][37]
The Race
With the starting order decided, the 1958 Italian Grand Prix commenced on 7th September.[30] Hawthorn made a slow start, whereas Vanwall's Stuart Lewis-Evans, who qualified fourth, jumping into the lead.[36] But it was Hill who made the best start, quickly passing all two Vanwalls into on the first corner, and then Moss later on the opening lap.[36][37][35][30] Further back, Ferrari's Wolfgang von Trips slammed into the rear wheel of Harry Schell's BRM, which caused the Ferrari to catch air and throw von Trips free from the vehicle.[36][37][35][30] Von Trips suffered a broken leg, but ultimately made a full recovery from his injuries.[36][37] Hill led from Moss and Lewis-Evans, with Hawthorn passing Brooks for fourth.[36][37] Hawthorn would make another two places by lap four; a lap later, he passed Hill for the lead, with the latter forced to pit due to a left-rear tyre tread falling off.[36][37][30] Now, the battle for the lead heated up for five drivers, with Hawthorn leading the Vanwalls and BRM's Jean Behra, Moss and Hawthorn swapping the lead on a few occasions before Moss moved by on lap 10.[36][37][30]
Brooks dropped out of contention after noticing oil spray from his car's rear.[36][37] The issue was deemed not serious and causing by a drive shaft's rubber gaiter splitting, enabling Brooks to resume.[36] On lap 15, Hawthorn re-passed Moss, with Behra moving into second.[36][37] The latter was re-overtaken by Moss and Lewis-Evans, only for Moss to retire on lap 18 following a gearbox failure.[36][35][37][30] By lap 20, Hawthorn now led Lewis-Evans and Behra by seven seconds.[36][30] Both drivers also experienced mechanical issues, with Lewis-Evans noting problems on lap 22, and Behra suffering front brake issues on lap 29 that forced a stoppage in the pits.[36] This allowed Hill to move up to third, with Brooks now fifth after making a gamble to not change tyres so as to challenge Hawthorn and prevent him from claiming the title.[36][35] Lewis-Evans then retired on lap 31 following water system issues, promoting Hill to second with Maserati's Masten Gregory third.[36][30][37] He would then briefly move into the lead when Hawthorn changed rear tyres, while Brooks closed-in on the Ferrari pair.[36][37][30] Brooks would overtake Hill for third following the latter's pit stop, closing-in on the leading pair as Hawthorn faced challenges from Gregory.[36][37][30]
Despite Gregory's best efforts over nine laps, he did not overtake the Ferrari, and was forced to pit for new tyres.[36] Brooks was now second, and was just eight seconds behind the Ferrari.[36][35] Hawthorn's concerns were greatly raised when his car's engine suffered issues, enabling Brooks to move into the lead on lap 61.[35][36][37][30] With Hawthorn forced to nurse his Ferrari, it enabled Brooks to claim victory and eight points in the Drivers' Championship.[36][35][37][30] Hawthorn successfully nursed his car over ten laps to finish second, with Hill finishing third and claiming another point by setting the fastest lap.[36][35][37][30] While denied the Championship at the event, Hawthorn now just needed a point in the finale at the Morocco Grand Prix to claim the title, whereas Vanwall led Ferrari 46 to 40 in the Constructors' Championship.[38][35] Meanwhile, Carroll Shelby substituted for Gregory and finished fourth, but shared drives no longer awarded points.[30][36] Cooper-Climax's Roy Salvadori claimed the final points position of fifth.[30][36]

Availability
The 1957 and 1958 Monaco Grand Prix were reportedly televised by TMC, although it is unknown whether it provided live coverage or race highlights.[39] Meanwhile, according to Issue 1,757 of Radio Times, the 1957 British Grand Prix received partial live coverage from the BBC.[40][41][39] This included 50 minutes dedicated to the race's start, 15 minutes midway through, and a further 27 where the race's end was described by commentator Raymond Baxter, for a total of 92 minutes of coverage.[40][41][39] Similar coverage was reported for the 1958 British Grand Prix according to Issue 1,809 of Radio Times.[42][43][39] This included 30 minutes dedicated to the start; 15 minutes for a progress report; and 25 minutes for the race's ending, for a total of 70 minutes of coverage.[42][43][39]
Finally, according to Issue 1,817 of Radio Times, the BBC provided highlights on the 1958 Italian Grand Prix on 10th September as part of Sportsview, with Moss being the segment's reporter.[44][45][39] It is unclear how long the report lasted in the 30-minute episode, as it also covered a boxing match between Randolph Turpin and Yolande Pompey, as well as swimming at the European Championships.[44][45][39] None of these broadcasts have publicly resurfaced, though highlights exist in newsreels and documentaries. Additionally, some television coverage of the 1958 British Grand Prix was shown on BBC 2 in 1987, featuring Collins winning the race. This indicates that the BBC possibly still has the full tape of the event, though whether it will ever be publicly released remains unclear.
