'''Juan Manuel Fangio''' ({{IPA|es|ˈxwam maˈnwel ˈfaŋxjo|lang}}, {{IPA|it|ˈfandʒo|lang}}; 24 June 1911 – 17 July 1995) was an Argentine [[racing driver]], who competed in [[Formula One]] from {{F1|1950}} to {{F1|1958}}. Nicknamed "'''el Chueco'''" and "'''el Maestro'''",{{efn|In Spanish, ''el Chueco'' means "the Bow-Legged One" or "the bandy-legged one", and ''el Maestro'' means "the Master".}} Fangio won five [[Formula One World Drivers' Championship titles]] and—at the time of his retirement—held the record for most [[List of Formula One Grand Prix winners|wins]] (24), [[List of Formula One polesitters|pole positions]] (29), [[List of Formula One drivers who set a fastest lap|fastest laps]] (23), and [[Podium (Formula One)|podium finishes]] (35), among [[#Formula One records|others]].

From childhood, he abandoned his studies to pursue auto mechanics. In 1938, he debuted in the newly-formed Argentine [[stock car racing]] series [[Turismo Carretera]], competing in a Ford V8. In 1940, he competed with [[Chevrolet]], winning the Grand Prix International Championship and devoted his time to the Turismo Carretera becoming its champion, a title he successfully defended a year later. Fangio then competed in Europe between 1947 and 1949, where he achieved further success.

One of the [[List of Formula One Grand Prix winners|most successful drivers]] in Formula One history, he made his debut in the [[1950 Formula One season|inaugural Formula One season]] in 1950 to dominate the [[History of Formula One|first decade]] of the championship. He went on to win the World Drivers' Championship five times—a record that stood for 46 years—and became the only driver in F1 history to win titles with four different teams: [[Alfa Romeo in Formula One|Alfa Romeo]] ([[1951 Formula One season|1951]]), [[Maserati in motorsport|Maserati]] ([[1954 Formula One season|1954]] and [[1957 Formula One season|1957]]), [[Mercedes-Benz in Formula One|Mercedes-Benz]] ([[1954 Formula One season|1954]] and [[1955 Formula One season|1955]]), and [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]] ([[1956 Formula One season|1956]]).{{efn|Fangio competed in the 1954 [[1954 Argentine Grand Prix|Argentine]] and [[1954 Belgian Grand Prix|Belgian]] {{not a typo|Grands Prix}} with [[Maserati in motorsport|Maserati]], then completed the [[1954 Formula One season]] with [[Mercedes-Benz in Formula One|Mercedes]], making him also the only driver in F1 history to win a championship driving for more than one team in the same season.<ref>{{cite book|last=Jones|first=Bruce|title=The Story of Formula One: 65 Years of Life in the Fast Lane|year=2015|publisher=Carlton Books|location=London, England|pages=29, 33, 37, 119, 343|isbn=978-1-78177-270-6}}</ref>}} He holds the [[List of Formula One driver records#Percentage wins (at least 15 starts)|highest winning percentage]] in Formula One at 46.15%, winning 24 of 52 Formula One races he entered.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.statsf1.com/en/statistiques/pilote/victoire/nombre.aspx|title=Statistics Drivers - Wins - By number|website=statsf1.com|language=en|access-date=31 October 2018|archive-date=18 May 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150518072101/http://www.statsf1.com/en/statistiques/pilote/victoire/nombre.aspx|url-status=live}}</ref> Additionally, Fangio also holds the record for the [[List of Formula One driver records#Percentage pole positions (at least 15 entries)|highest pole percentage]] at 55.77%, achieving 29 pole positions from 52 entries.<ref>{{Cite web |date=5 May 2020 |title=Top 15 Formula 1 Drivers Ranked by Pole Percentage: Ayrton Senna Is No. 4 |url=https://www.autoweek.com/racing/formula-1/g32375577/top-f1-drivers-ranked-pole-percentage/ |access-date=15 July 2023 |website=Autoweek |language=en-US |archive-date=15 July 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230715044200/https://www.autoweek.com/racing/formula-1/g32375577/top-f1-drivers-ranked-pole-percentage/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> Fangio is the only [[Formula One drivers from Argentina|Argentine driver]] to have won the World Drivers' Championship and the [[Argentine Grand Prix]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.statsf1.com/en/statistiques/pilote/victoire/national.aspx|title=Statistics Drivers - Wins - By national GP|website=statsf1.com|language=en|access-date=31 October 2018|archive-date=14 April 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100414040632/http://www.statsf1.com/en/statistiques/pilote/victoire/national.aspx|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.statsf1.com/en/grand-prix-argentina.aspx?lst=vp|title=Grands Prix Argentina|website=statsf1.com|language=en|access-date=31 October 2018|archive-date=2 October 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101002143906/http://www.statsf1.com/en/grand-prix-argentina.aspx?lst=vp|url-status=live}}</ref> He also competed in [[sports car racing]], winning the [[12 Hours of Sebring]] in [[1956 12 Hours of Sebring|1956]] with Ferrari and in [[1957 12 Hours of Sebring|1957]] with Maserati.

After retirement, Fangio presided as the honorary president of [[Mercedes-Benz Argentina]] from 1987, a year after the inauguration of [[Museo Juan Manuel Fangio|his museum]], until his death in 1995. In 2011, on the centenary of his birth, Fangio was remembered around the world and various activities were held in his honor.

==Early life==
Fangio's grandfather, Giuseppe Fangio, emigrated to Buenos Aires from Italy in 1887. Giuseppe was able to buy his own farm near [[Balcarce, Buenos Aires|Balcarce]], a small town near [[Mar del Plata]] in southern [[Buenos Aires Province]], Argentina, within three years by making [[charcoal]] from tree branches. Giuseppe brought his family, with his 7-year son Loreto, later the racing driver's father, to Argentina from the small central Italian town of [[Castiglione Messer Marino]] in the [[Chieti]] province of the [[Abruzzo]] region. His mother, Herminia Déramo, was from [[Tornareccio]], slightly to the north. Fangio's parents married on 24 October 1903 and lived on farms, where Herminia was a housekeeper and Loreto worked in the building trade, becoming an apprentice stonemason.{{sfn|Donaldson|2003|p=7-8}}

Fangio was born in Balcarce on 24 June 1911, [[Nativity of St. John the Baptist|San Juan's Day]], at 12:10&nbsp;am.<ref name=obituaries>{{cite web |url=http://f1fanatics.wordpress.com/hall-of-fame/juan-manuel-fangio/ |title=F1 Fanatics: Juan Manuel Fangio |publisher=F1fanatics.wordpress.com |date=31 January 2011 |access-date=20 March 2011 |archive-date=19 July 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100719104958/http://f1fanatics.wordpress.com/hall-of-fame/juan-manuel-fangio/ |url-status=live }}</ref> His birth certificate was mistakenly dated 23 June in the Register of Balcarce.<ref name=earlylife>{{cite web|url=https://www.museofangio.com/en/juan-manuel-fangio/biography/1-primera-parte-1911-1936/|title=Biography -First Part 1911-1936|website=Museo Fangio|access-date=4 November 2019|archive-date=4 November 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191104144251/https://www.museofangio.com/en/juan-manuel-fangio/biography/1-primera-parte-1911-1936/|url-status=live}}</ref> He was the fourth of six children.<ref name=tribute>{{cite news|last=Tremayne|first=David|title=Obituaries: Juan Manuel Fangio|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/obituaries-juan-manuel-fangio-1591999.html|newspaper=The Independent|date=18 July 1995|access-date=4 December 2017|archive-date=26 April 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200426102222/https://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/obituaries-juan-manuel-fangio-1591999.html|url-status=dead}}</ref> In his childhood he became known as ''El Chueco'', the bandy-legged one, for his skill in bending his left leg around the ball to shoot on goal in [[Association football|football]] games.<ref name=tribute />

[[File:Fangio2.jpg|thumb|left|300px|Fangio as a child when he took his Roman Catholic [[First Communion]], {{circa}} 1920]]

Fangio started his education at School No. 4 of Balcarce, before transferring to School No. 1 and 18 Uriburu Av.<ref name=earlylife /> When Fangio was 13, he dropped out of school and worked in Miguel Angel Casas auto mechanics' workshop as an assistant mechanic.{{citation needed|date=August 2022}} When he was 16, he started riding as a mechanic for his employer's customers. He developed pneumonia that almost proved fatal,{{citation needed|date=August 2022}} after a football game where hard running had caused a sharp pain in his chest. He was bed-ridden for two months, cared for by his mother.{{sfn|Donaldson|2003|p=14-15}}

After recovering, Fangio served compulsory military service at the age of 21. In 1932 he was enlisted at the Campo de Mayo cadet school near Buenos Aires. His driving skills caught the attention of his commanding officer, who appointed Fangio as his official driver. Fangio was discharged before his 22nd birthday, after taking his final physical examination. He returned to Balcarce where he aimed to further his football career. Along with his friend José Duffard he received offers to play at a club based in [[Mar del Plata]]. Their teammates at Balcarce suggested the two work on Fangio's hobby of building his own car, and his parents gave him space to do so in a rudimentary shed at the family home.{{sfn|Donaldson|2003|p=14-15}}

==Early racing career==
[[File:1950 Simca Gordini T15s.JPG|thumb|right|1950 Simca Gordini T15s, as raced, and retired, at the [[1950 24 Hours of Le Mans]] by [[José Froilán González]] and Juan Manuel Fangio]]
After finishing his military service, Fangio opened his own garage and raced in local events. He began his racing career in Argentina in 1936, driving a 1929 [[Ford Model A (1927-1931)|{{nowrap|Ford Model&nbsp;A}}]] that he had rebuilt. In the [[Turismo Carretera|Tourismo Carretera]] category, Fangio participated in his first race between 18 and 30 October 1938 as the co-driver of Luis Finocchietti. Despite not winning the Argentine Road Grand Prix, Fangio drove most of the way and finished fifth. In November of that year, he entered the "400&nbsp;km of [[Tres Arroyos]]", but it was suspended due to a fatal accident.<ref name="Web2">{{cite web |url=http://www.museofangio.com/es/biografia/2-second-hand-1937-1942/ |title=Part Two (1937–1942) |access-date=15 February 2011 |publisher=Foundation Fangio |location=Argentina |archive-date=21 November 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151121231920/http://www.museofangio.com/es/biografia/2-second-hand-1937-1942/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

During his time racing in Argentina, he drove [[Chevrolet]] cars and was Argentine National Champion in 1940 and 1941. One particular race, the 1940 Gran Premio del Norte, was almost 10,000&nbsp;km (6,250&nbsp;mi) long, one that Fangio described as a "terrible ordeal". This rally-style race started in [[Buenos Aires]] on 27 September, and ran up through the [[Andes]] and [[Bolivia]] to [[Lima]], [[Peru]], and then back to Buenos Aires, taking 15 days, ending on 12 October with stages held each day. This horrendously gruelling race was held in the most difficult and varied conditions imaginable—drivers had to traverse through hot and dry deserts, insect-ridden jungles with crushing humidity, freezing cold and sometimes snowy mountain passes with {{Convert|1000|ft|m|abbr=out}} cliff drops at extremely high altitude, sometimes in total darkness, and cold, highly elevated deserts such as the [[Atacama Desert|Atacama]]- all on a mixture of dirt and paved roads- none of which were closed off to the public. Early in the race Fangio hit a large rock and damaged the car's [[Drive shaft|driveshaft]], which was replaced in the next town. Later on at an overnight stop in Bolivia one of the townspeople crashed into Fangio's car and bent an axle—he and his co-driver spent all night fixing it. Following this repair the fan blade got loose and punctured the radiator, which meant another repair before it was later replaced. They drove {{convert|150|mi}} through scorching desert with no water, and during a night stint one of the headlights fell off and they had to be secured with his co-driver's necktie. The weather in the Andes mountains and the Atacama was so cold that Fangio drove with his co-driver's arms around him for hours. These mountainous routes in Bolivia and Peru sometimes involved going up to altitudes of {{convert|14000|ft}} above sea level—a 40 percent reduction of air thickness, making breathing incredibly difficult and the engine being severely down on power. When Fangio finally got out of the mountains and back to Buenos Aires, after traversing all these external challenges, he had won the race, which was his first big victory.<ref>https://youtube.com/VJegVEmuVkE{{Dead link|date=June 2023 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>

In 1941, he beat [[Oscar Gálvez]] in the Grand Prix [[Getúlio Vargas]] in [[Brazil]], which was a six-day, {{convert|3731|km|adj=on}} public road race starting from and ending at [[Rio de Janeiro]], going through various cities and towns all over Brazil such as [[São Paulo]] and [[Belo Horizonte]]. For the second time, Fangio was crowned champion of Argentine TC. In 1942, he took tenth place in the South Grand Prix. In April he won the race "Mar y Sierras", and then had to suspend activity due to World War II.<ref Name="Web2"/> In 1946, Fangio returned to racing with two races in [[Morón]] and [[Tandil]] driving a [[Ford T|Ford&nbsp;T]]. In February 1947, Fangio competed at National Mechanics (MN) at the Retiro circuit, and on 1 March, he started the race for Rosario City Award. Subsequently, Fangio triumphed in the Double Back Window Race.<ref Name="Web3">{{cite web|url=http://www.museofangio.com/es/biografia/3-tercera-part-1943-1949/|title=Part Three (1943–1949)|access-date=15 February 2011|publisher=Foundation Fangio|location=Argentina|archive-date=21 November 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151121232246/http://www.museofangio.com/es/biografia/3-tercera-part-1943-1949/|url-status=live}}</ref>

In October 1948, Fangio however suffered a personal tragedy in another gruelling race, this time [[1948 South American Grand Prix]], another point-to-point race from Buenos Aires to Caracas, Venezuela—a 20-day event covering a distance of {{convert|9580|km}} through Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia and finally Venezuela. In a race that killed 3 spectators and 2 drivers. Fangio, with his co-driver Daniel Urrutia battled hard with brothers Juan and Oscar Galvez, and Domingo Marimon throughout- Fangio was pushing hard to make up lost time he incurred in Argentina. On the 10th day, on the Lima to Tumbes stage in northern Peru, on coastal roads along the Pacific Ocean, Fangio was driving at night in thick fog generated from the ocean in near-pitch black darkness when he approached a left-hand bend at {{convert|140|kph}} near the village of Huanchaco, not far from the small city of [[Trujillo, Peru|Trujillo]]. With his car's lights not helping him in the thick fog, he approached the bend too fast, lost control of the car and tumbled down an embankment, and Urrutia was thrown out of the car through the front windscreen. Oscar Galvez stopped to help Fangio, who had neck injuries, then soon found the badly injured Urrutia. Another competitor, Luciano Marcilla, stopped and took Fangio and Urrutia to the nearest hospital in the town of Chocope 50&nbsp;km (31&nbsp;mi) away. Fangio survived but 35-year-old Urrutia did not, suffering multiple fatal cervical and basal skull fractures. Domingo Marimon won the race, but the race was a disaster and was marred by the deaths of three spectators and three drivers (including Urrutia).<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://motorsportmemorial.org/focus.php?db=ct&n=1340|title=Motorsport Memorial -|website=motorsportmemorial.org|access-date=24 April 2020|archive-date=3 November 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211103180400/http://www.motorsportmemorial.org/focus.php?db=ct&n=1340|url-status=live}}</ref> Fangio believed he would never race again and entered a depressed state after the death of his friend, but he recovered, and his successes in Argentina caught the attention of the Argentine Automobile Club and the [[Juan Peron]]-led Argentine government, so they bought a Maserati and sent him to Europe in December 1948 to continue his career.<ref name="cheqflag">{{cite book|last=Rendall |first=Ivan |title=The Chequered Flag: 100 years of motor racing| publisher=Weidenfeld & Nicolson| orig-year=1993| year=1995| isbn=0-297-83550-5| page=166}}</ref><ref name="grandprixhistory.org">{{cite news|url=http://www.grandprixhistory.org/fangio_bio.htm|title=Juan-Manuel Fangio – Biography|work=grandprixhistory.org|date=28 April 2014|last1=David|first1=Dennis|access-date=21 July 2015|archive-date=23 October 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161023223041/http://www.grandprixhistory.org/fangio_bio.htm|url-status=live}}</ref>

==Formula One and sports car racing==

[[File:Fangio & Maserati 250F.jpg|thumb|right|Fangio driving a [[Maserati 250F]]]]
Fangio was the oldest driver in many of his Formula One races, having started his Grand Prix career in his late 30s. During his career, drivers raced with almost no protective equipment on circuits with no safety features. Formula One cars in the 1950s were for the time not only fast, but very physically and mentally demanding to drive; races were much longer than today and demanded incredible stamina. Tyres were very narrow and cross-ply, and far less forgiving; treads often stripped in a race, and [[spark plug]]s fouled. The drivers wore goggles with cloth helmets up to 1952, where from that year on helmets were made mandatory, so they wore pie-shaped crash hats made of paper-mache. The cars had no seatbelts, no roll-over protection, no bodywork to contain the driver (up until 1954) and the front-engined layout of these cars meant that the heated air from the engine and the gearbox would often blast the bodies of the drivers for the hours of the race, with the driveshaft spinning between their legs, and there were, of course, no electronic aids or computer intervention. At the end of a GP, drivers often suffered blistered hands caused by heavy steering and gear changing, and their faces were sometimes covered in soot from the inboard brakes. Despite Fangio's short career, he was one of the top GP drivers in history, rivalling [[Tazio Nuvolari]].{{citation needed|date=November 2019}}

Fangio had no compunction about leaving a team, even after a successful year or even during a season, if he thought he would have a better chance with a better car. As was then common, several of his race results were shared with teammates after he took over their car during races when his own had technical problems. His main rivals included [[Alberto Ascari]] and [[Stirling Moss]], and on occasion [[Giuseppe Farina|Giuseppe “Nino” Farina]] and [[Mike Hawthorn]] (Farina particularly in the early part of Fangio’s career). Throughout his career, Fangio was backed by funding from the Argentine government of [[Juan Perón]].<ref name="en.espn.co.uk">{{cite web|url=http://en.espn.co.uk/alfaromeo/motorsport/driver/456.html|title=Juan Manuel Fangio|work=ESPN UK|access-date=21 July 2015|archive-date=24 August 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150824213116/http://en.espn.co.uk/alfaromeo/motorsport/driver/456.html|url-status=live}}</ref>

===World championship successes===
[[File:Juan Manuel Fangio Nurburgring 1957.jpg|thumb|right|Fangio after winning the [[1957 German Grand Prix]] at the Nürburgring]]

Fangio's first Grand Prix race was the [[1948 French Grand Prix]] at [[Reims-Gueux|Reims]], where he started his [[Gordini|Simca Gordini]] from 11th on the grid but retired. Fangio briefly returned to South America to compete in the aforementioned Buenos Aires to Caracas race, he then returned to Europe the following year, and raced in [[Sanremo]]; having upgraded to a [[Maserati 4CL|Maserati 4CLT/48]] sponsored by the Automobile Club of Argentina he dominated the event, winning both heats to take the aggregate win by almost a minute over [[Prince Bira]]. Fangio entered a further six Grand Prix races in 1949, winning four of them against top-level opposition.<ref name="grandprixhistory.org"/><ref name="grandprix.com">{{cite web|url=http://www.grandprix.com/gpe/drv-fanjua.html|title=Juan-Manuel Fangio Profile - Drivers - GP Encyclopedia - F1 History on Grandprix.com|work=grandprix.com|access-date=23 January 2009|archive-date=5 November 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201105173534/https://www.grandprix.com/gpe/drv-fanjua.html|url-status=live}}</ref>

====Alfa Romeo and Monza accident====
For the first World Championship of Drivers in [[1950 Formula One season|1950]], Fangio was taken on by the [[Alfa Romeo in Formula One|Alfa Romeo]] team alongside Farina and [[Luigi Fagioli]]. With competitive racing cars following the [[Second World War]] still in short supply, the pre-war [[Alfa Romeo 158/159 Alfetta|Alfettas]] proved dominant. Fangio won each of the three races he finished at Monaco, Spa and Reims-Gueux but Farina's three wins at races Fangio retired from and a fourth-place allowed Farina to take the title, even though Fangio was quicker than Farina, who was able to take advantage of Fangio's mechanical woes. Fangio's most notable victory that year was at Monaco, where he dodged a multi-car pile-up and easily won the race. In 1950s non-championship races Fangio took a further four wins at San Remo, Pau and the fearsome Coppa Acerbo at the 16-mile Pescara public road circuit, and two seconds from eight starts. At Pescara in 1950, going down a long straight called the Flying Kilometer, he was clocked doing 194&nbsp;mph (310&nbsp;km/h) in his Alfa. He also won a handful of races in South America for the Argentine Automobile Club driving a Maserati 4CLT and a Ferrari 166 during the European off-season.

Fangio won three more championship races for Alfa in [[1951 Formula One season|1951]] in the [[1951 Swiss Grand Prix|Swiss]], [[1951 French Grand Prix|French]] and [[1951 Spanish Grand Prix|Spanish]] Grands Prix, and with the new 4.5-litre Ferraris taking points off his teammates Farina and various others, Fangio took the title at the final race in Spain, finishing six points ahead of Ascari at the [[Pedralbes Circuit|Pedralbes street circuit]]. Fangio also finished second at the [[1951 British Grand Prix|British Grand Prix]] at [[Silverstone Circuit|Silverstone]] after his horrendously fuel-inefficient Alfa had to make two lengthy pit stops to refill the car. He then finished second at the [[1951 German Grand Prix|German Grand Prix]] at the [[Nürburgring]] after he lost first and second gear during an intense battle with Alberto Ascari.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Jones |first1=Bruce |title=The Ultimate Encyclopedia of Formula One |date=1995 |others=with contributions from Damon Hill |publisher=Carlton Books |isbn=978-0-340-64889-6 |page=16}}</ref><ref name="grandprixhistory.org"/><ref name="en.espn.co.uk"/><ref name="grandprix.com"/>

With the [[1952 Formula One season|1952 World Championship]] being run to [[Formula Two]] specifications, Alfa Romeo did not have a car for the new formula and were unable to use their supercharged Alfettas, so they withdrew. As a result, the defending champion found himself without a car for the first race of the championship and remained absent from F1 until June, when he drove the British [[BRM#V 16|BRM V16]] in non-championship F1 races at the public road circuits at [[Circuit d'Albi|Albi]] in France and [[Dundrod Circuit|Dundrod]] in Northern Ireland. Fangio had agreed to drive for Maserati in a non-championship race at [[Monza Grand Prix|Monza]] the day after the Dundrod race, but having missed a connecting flight he decided to drive through the night on pre-motorway mountain roads through the Alps from [[Lyon]], arriving half an hour before the start. Arriving at [[Autodromo Nazionale Monza|Monza]] at 2 p.m., he was badly fatigued and with the race starting at 2:30&nbsp;p.m., Fangio started the race from the back of the grid but lost control on the second lap, crashed into a grass bank, and was thrown out of the car as it flipped end over end, smashing through trees. He was taken to a hospital in Milan with multiple injuries, the most serious being a broken neck, and spent the rest of 1952 recovering in Argentina.<ref name="grandprixhistory.org"/><ref name="grandprix.com"/> Nino Farina, who had won the race, visited Fangio in hospital and gifted him with the winner's laurel wreath.

Having returned to Europe and back to full racing fitness in [[1953 Formula One season|1953]], Fangio rejoined Maserati for the championship season, and against the dominant Ferraris led by Ascari he took a lucky win at Monza. Fangio's car had a bad vibration all throughout practice, and he offered the Maserati mechanics 10% of his winnings if they fixed the vibration; they did, and Fangio qualified second, and won the race, setting fastest lap and beating [[Nino Farina]] by just 1.4 seconds. Along with that win, Fangio secured three second-places to finish second in the Championship, and also came third first time out in the [[Targa Florio]]. He also competed and won one of two heats in the Albi Grand Prix, again with [[BRM]] and driving the fearsome and powerful [[BRM Type 15|Type 15]], a car with a 600&nbsp;hp supercharged V16 that was difficult to drive.

He also competed in one of the most dangerous and prestigious races in Europe: the [[Mille Miglia]], a {{Convert|1000|mi|km|abbr=out}} race on open public roads covering nearly all of northern Italy driving an Alfa Romeo 6C 3000 CM entered by the factory. The Mille Miglia and also another championship race in 1953, the Carrera Panamericana in Mexico were much like the races he competed in South America in the 1940s (except all the roads used in Italy and Mexico were paved). At the Mille Miglia, the Alfa team was expected to win, and after Farina, Karl Kling and Consalvo Sanesi all crashed, Fangio was leading when he reached Rome, pushing very hard from when he started in Brescia. Fangio then suffered left front steering arm failure near Bologna and only had consistent steering on the right front; this allowed Mille Miglia expert Giannino Marzotto to catch and beat Fangio by 12 minutes, even though the Argentine driver drove hard to keep up with Marzotto. He ended 1953 by winning the dauntingly dangerous and difficult 2,000&nbsp;mi (3,200&nbsp;km) [[Carrera Panamericana]] in Mexico driving a [[Lancia D24]]; Fangio was able to win this 5-day open public road rally that started at the Guatemala-Mexico border and ended at the Mexico-United States border in Ciudad Juarez, setting a new race time completion record of 18.5 hours (despite Fangio not winning a single stage), some 9 hours faster than the winner of the first event in 1950. The race was marred by multiple spectator fatalities, and the death of 50-year-old [[Felice Bonetto]], like Fangio driving a works Lancia, on the third day of the competition in the town of [[Silao, Mexico|Silao]].<ref name="grandprixhistory.org"/><ref name="grandprix.com"/><ref>{{cite web|title=Lancia Wins Big Road Race|url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article63213391|newspaper=Townsville Daily Bulletin|date=25 November 1953 |access-date=13 April 2013|archive-date=24 March 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230324021718/https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/63213391|url-status=live}}</ref>

====Mercedes-Benz====
[[File:Mercedes W196.jpg|thumb|Mercedes W196 F1 car in Buenos Aires]]
In [[1954 Formula One season|1954]] Fangio raced for Maserati until [[Mercedes-Benz in Formula One|Mercedes-Benz]] entered competition in mid-season. He won his home Grand Prix in [[Buenos Aires]] and at Spa with the iconic [[Maserati 250F|250F]]. Mercedes-Benz's first race was the French Grand Prix at the fast, straight dominated Reims public road circuit, and he won the race with the streamlined, closed-wheel [[Mercedes-Benz W196|W196 Monoposto]]- a car that although difficult to drive was ahead of its time. Fangio spent the race battling with teammate [[Karl Kling]] down Reims's long straights. Fangio failed to win at Silverstone, with the closed-wheel car designed for straight-line speed struggling at the high speed corner-dominated circuit. Fangio got the more nimble open-wheeled W196 for the [[Nürburgring]], and won the race, as he did at Bremgarten and then at Monza, the latter with the streamlined car. Monza was a particularly brutal race in that Alberto Ascari had turned up with the new Lancia, and young British up-and-comer [[Stirling Moss]] in a private Maserati was also competitive during the race. Ascari and Moss both passed Fangio and raced each other hard until Ascari dropped out with engine problems. Moss's engine blew up near the end of the race and Fangio took victory. Winning eight out of twelve races (six out of eight in the championship) and winning his second championship in that year, he continued to race with Mercedes—driving a further developed W196 with improved performance in [[1955 Formula One season|1955]] in a team that included Moss.

For 1955, Fangio subjected himself to a training programme which was strenuous in an effort to keep up his fitness levels high which was comparable to his younger rivals. He won a particularly brutal race at the [[1955 Argentine Grand Prix|Gran Premio de la República Argentina]]. This race was run in Buenos Aires during a gruelling {{cvt|40|°C}} heat wave, and with track temperature of over {{cvt|57|°C}} few drivers other than Fangio were able to complete the race. The W196's chassis had heated up and Fangio's right leg rubbed against the chassis structure, but even after receiving severe burns he kept going; it took him three months to recover from his injuries. 1955 also saw Fangio attempt the Mille Miglia again, this time without a navigator, driving a [[Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR]]. After leaving at 6:58&nbsp;a.m., the car's advanced engine began developing problems when he got to Pescara. The Mercedes mechanics apparently found nothing, and sent him off. Fangio was losing time to Moss and Hans Herrmann, and when he got to Rome the engine was still not running smoothly. Again Fangio was sent away by the mechanics. And when he got to Florence, a few loud bangs were heard, so the mechanics raised the bonnet and they found that one of the fuel injection pipes had broken, so Fangio's 300 SLR was running on seven cylinders instead of eight; this could not be repaired and Fangio drove back to Brescia with a misfiring engine, finishing in 2nd behind Moss. Fangio later surmised that Mercedes felt he could not win the race without a navigator so they did not put as much effort behind preparing his car as they did with the car of Moss, who had [[Denis Jenkinson|a navigator]]. At the end of the second successful season (which was overshadowed by the [[1955 Le Mans disaster]] in which 83 spectators were killed, an accident which happened right in front of and nearly killed him) Mercedes withdrew from racing and after four attempts, Fangio never raced at Le Mans again.{{sfn|Donaldson|2003}}<ref name="grandprixhistory.org"/> A number of races were cancelled after this race except for Britain and Italy (which both already had circuits with new and updated safety facilities), which he finished in second in the former and won the latter, allowing him to win his third world championship. Mercedes's last race was the Targa Florio sportscar race, which Mercedes needed to win in order to beat Ferrari and Jaguar to the title; the German firm had skipped the first two races in Buenos Aires and Sebring, Florida. Fangio, driving with Kling finished second to Moss and Peter Collins, allowing Mercedes to win the title by two points over Ferrari.

====Last years with Ferrari and Maserati====
In [[1956 Formula One season|1956]] Fangio moved to Ferrari to win his fourth title. Neither Enzo Ferrari nor the Ferrari team manager Eraldo Sculati had a warm relationship with Fangio, despite their shared success with the very difficult-to-drive Ferrari-developed Lancia car. Fangio started the year strongly by winning the gruelling [[12 Hours of Sebring|12-hour sportscar race]] at [[1956 12 Hours of Sebring|Sebring]] in America with Ferrari, driving with [[Eugenio Castellotti]]. But during the Grand Prix season, Fangio took over his teammate's cars after he suffered mechanical problems in three races, the [[1956 Argentine Grand Prix|Argentine]], [[1956 Monaco Grand Prix|Monaco]] and [[1956 Italian Grand Prix|Italian]] Grands Prix. In each case the points were shared between the two drivers. After the Monaco Grand Prix, where Fangio struggled with the ill-handling Lancia-Ferrari he asked Ferrari if he could have one mechanic exclusively for his car, as Ferrari did not have his mechanics assigned to any of the cars, as Mercedes had. Ferrari granted Fangio's request, and the performance of Fangio's car improved substantially. In addition to winning in Argentina, Fangio won the British and German Grands Prix at [[Silverstone Circuit|Silverstone]] and the [[Nürburgring]]. At the season-ending Italian Grand Prix, Fangio's Ferrari teammate [[Peter Collins (racing driver)|Peter Collins]], who was in a position to win the World Championship with just 15 laps to go, handed over his car to Fangio. They shared the six points won for second place, giving Fangio the World title.<ref name="grandprix.com"/>{{quote box|quote="I have never driven that quickly before in my life and I don't think I will ever be able to do it again." |source=—Fangio after the [[1957 German Grand Prix]]<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.greatcarstv.com/history/maserati-and-fangio-f1-world-champions-in-1957.html |title=MASERATI AND FANGIO F1 WORLD CHAMPIONS IN 1957 |access-date=23 January 2009 |publisher=greatcarstv.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081204132153/http://www.greatcarstv.com/history/maserati-and-fangio-f1-world-champions-in-1957.html |archive-date=4 December 2008 }}</ref>| width=28%|align=left}}

In [[1957 Formula One season|1957]] Fangio returned to Maserati, who were still using the same iconic [[Maserati 250F|250F]] which Fangio had driven at the start of 1954. Fangio started the season with a hat-trick of wins in Argentina, Monaco and France, before retiring with engine problems in Britain. He also won the [[12 Hours of Sebring|Sebring]] sportscar race in driving a [[Maserati 450S]] with [[Jean Behra]] for the second year running. But at the Grand Prix after Britain, the [[1957 German Grand Prix|German Grand Prix]] at the [[Nürburgring]] circuit, Fangio needed to extend his lead by six points to claim the title with two races to spare. From pole position Fangio dropped to third behind the Ferraris of [[Mike Hawthorn]] and Collins but managed to get past both by the end of the third lap. Fangio had started with half-full tanks since he expected that he would need new tyres halfway through the race. In the event Fangio pitted on lap 13 with a 30-second lead, but a disastrous stop left him back in third place and 50 seconds behind Collins and Hawthorn. Fangio came into his own, setting one fastest lap after another, culminating in a record-breaking time on lap 20 a full eleven seconds faster than the best the Ferraris could do. On the penultimate lap Fangio got back past both Collins and Hawthorn, and held on to take the win by just over three seconds.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Edsall |first1=Larry |title=Maserati celebrates 60th anniversary of Eldorado racer |url=https://journal.classiccars.com/2018/07/01/maserati-celebrates-60th-anniversary-of-eldorado-racer/ |website=The Classic Cars Journal |date=July 2018 |access-date=6 November 2018 |archive-date=16 January 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200116143452/https://journal.classiccars.com/2018/07/01/maserati-celebrates-60th-anniversary-of-eldorado-racer/ |url-status=live }}</ref> With Musso finishing in fourth place, Fangio claimed his fifth title. This performance is often regarded as one of the greatest drives in Formula One history, and it was also Fangio's final victory in the sport.<ref name="grandprixhistory.org"/><ref name="en.espn.co.uk"/><ref name="grandprix.com"/> Fangio's record of five championships remained unbroken until 2003, when [[Michael Schumacher]] won his sixth championship.

After his series of consecutive championships he retired in [[1958 Formula One season|1958]], following the [[1958 French Grand Prix|French Grand Prix]]. Such was the respect for Fangio that during that final race, race leader Hawthorn, who had lapped Fangio, braked as he was about to cross the line so that Fangio could complete the 50-lap distance in his final race; he crossed the line over two minutes down on Hawthorn. Getting out of the Maserati after the race, he said to his mechanic simply, "It is finished." He was famous for winning races at what he described as the slowest possible speed, in order to conserve the car to the finish. Cars in the 1940s and 1950s were unpredictable in their reliability, with almost any component susceptible to breaking. He won 24 World Championship Grands Prix, 22 outright and two shared with other drivers, from 52 entries – a winning percentage of 46.15%, the highest in the sport's history ([[Alberto Ascari]], who has the second-highest, holds a winning percentage of 40.63%). Both drivers were already experienced Grand Prix drivers before the world championship started.<ref name="grandprixhistory.org"/><ref name="en.espn.co.uk"/>

==Kidnapping==
President [[Fulgencio Batista]] of Cuba established the non-Formula One [[Cuban Grand Prix]] in Havana in 1957. Fangio won the 1957 event, and had set fastest times during practice for the 1958 race. On 23 February 1958, two gunmen of [[Fidel Castro]]'s [[26th of July Movement]] entered the Hotel Lincoln in [[Havana]] and kidnapped Fangio. Batista ordered the race to continue as usual while a crack team of police hunted down the kidnappers. They set up roadblocks at intersections, and guards were assigned to private and commercial airports and to all competing drivers.<ref>{{cite news|title=Cuba Rebels Kidnap Champ Race Driver|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=hV1QAAAAIBAJ&pg=4137,2110806&dq=juan+manuel+fangio&hl=en|newspaper=The Milwaukee Sentinel|date=24 February 1958|page=1}}{{Dead link|date=December 2021 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=Cuban Rebels Kidnap Argentine Auto Racer|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=ASFHAAAAIBAJ&pg=1682,4205985&dq=juan+manuel+fangio&hl=en|newspaper=The Newburgh News|date=24 February 1958|last=McCarthy|first=Francis L.|page=1|access-date=14 November 2020|archive-date=3 February 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230203100738/https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=ASFHAAAAIBAJ&pg=1682,4205985&dq=juan+manuel+fangio&hl=en|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="ReferenceA">{{cite web|url=http://en.espn.co.uk/f1/motorsport/story/23608.html|title=Kidnapped in Cuba|work=ESPN UK|last=Edmondson|first=Laurence|date=20 July 2010|access-date=21 July 2015|archive-date=10 October 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171010160103/http://en.espn.co.uk/f1/motorsport/story/23608.html|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Fangio was taken to three separate houses. His captors allowed him to listen to the race via radio, bringing a television for him to witness reports of a disastrous crash after the race concluded. In the third house, Fangio was allowed his own bedroom but became convinced that a guard was standing outside the bedroom door at all hours. The captors talked about their revolutionary programme, which Fangio had not wished to speak about, as he did not have an interest in politics. He later said: "Well, this is one more adventure. If what the rebels did was in a good cause, then I, as an Argentine, accept it."<ref name="ReferenceA"/> He was released after 29 hours, after being "treated very well".<ref>{{cite news|title=Rebels let Fangio see crash on TV|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=0hlBAAAAIBAJ&pg=6399,3965558&dq=fangio&hl=en|newspaper=The Bulletin|date=26 February 1958|page=2|access-date=14 November 2020|archive-date=3 February 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230203100740/https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=0hlBAAAAIBAJ&pg=6399,3965558&dq=fangio&hl=en|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=Fangio Released by Rebels 'Treated Very Well'|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=8XdAAAAAIBAJ&pg=3147,6506984&dq=fangio&hl=en|newspaper=The Glasgow Herald|date=26 February 1958|page=7|access-date=14 November 2020|archive-date=3 February 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230203100742/https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=8XdAAAAAIBAJ&pg=3147,6506984&dq=fangio&hl=en|url-status=live}}</ref>

The captors' motives were to force the cancellation of the race in an attempt to embarrass the Batista regime. When Fangio was handed over to the Argentine embassy soon after the race, many Cubans became convinced that Batista was losing his grip on power because he failed to track the captors down. The [[Cuban Revolution]] took over the government in January 1959, and the 1959 Cuban Grand Prix was cancelled.  The Fangio kidnapping was dramatized in a 1999 [[Argentine cinema|Argentine film]] directed by [[Alberto Lecchi]], ''[[Operación Fangio]]''.<ref name="ReferenceA"/><ref>{{cite news|title=Rebels Free Fangio; Foul Play is Cry in Tragic Cuban Auto Race|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=xbpFAAAAIBAJ&pg=2622,4566437&dq=juan+manuel+fangio&hl=en|newspaper=The Portsmouth Times|date=25 February 1958|page=1|access-date=14 November 2020|archive-date=3 February 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230203100737/https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=xbpFAAAAIBAJ&pg=2622,4566437&dq=juan+manuel+fangio&hl=en|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=Fangio Kidnapping Convinces Many Batista Powerless|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=STRWAAAAIBAJ&pg=6408,3586412&dq=fangio&hl=en|newspaper=The Free Lance-Star|date=26 February 1958|page=2|access-date=14 November 2020|archive-date=10 October 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211010212733/https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=STRWAAAAIBAJ&pg=6408%2C3586412&dq=fangio&hl=en|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.cinenacional.com/peliculas/index.php?pelicula=2389 |title=Operación Fangio |publisher=Cine Nacional |access-date=20 March 2011 |language=es |archive-date=29 December 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101229050610/http://cinenacional.com/peliculas/index.php?pelicula=2389 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

[[Image:Fangio-MB-W196-3lMotor-1986.jpg|thumb|Juan Manuel Fangio driving a [[Mercedes-Benz W196]] in the 1986 Oldtimer Grand Prix at the [[Nürburgring]]]]

In the early 1950s, Fangio was involved in a road accident when he was forced to swerve to avoid an oncoming truck. The car, a [[Lancia Aurelia]] GT, clipped a pole, spinning twice and threw Fangio out, which led him to sustain grazed elbows. One passenger stated the incident was the first time Fangio had been so terrified.<ref>{{cite news|title=Fangio gives Sandown crowd a treat|newspaper=[[The Age]]|date=13 September 1978|page=54}}</ref>

When Fangio attended the [[1958 Indianapolis 500]], he was offered $20,000 to qualify in a [[Kurtis Kraft|Kurtis]]-[[Offenhauser]] by the car's owner, George Walther, Jr (father of future Indy 500 driver [[Salt Walther]]). Fangio had previously attended the 500 in 1948 at which time he expressed his interest in competing the race. However, he was unable to qualify with a car that did not work properly. Walther allowed Fangio to stand aside (before a contract with [[BP]] came to light), still he did not want another driver to take over Fangio's position.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Davidson |first1=Donald |last2=Shaffer |first2=Rick |date=2006 |url =https://books.google.com/books?id=MOE-vgAACAAJ |title=Autocourse Official History of the Indianapolis 500 |publisher=Crash Media Group |isbn=978-1-905334-20-9 |page=144}}</ref>

After his retirement, Fangio was distinguished as honorary President of the Automobile Sports Commission of the Argentine Republic.<ref name="Web5">{{cite web|access-date=15 February 2011 |editor=Fundación Fangio |location=Argentina |publisher=Sitio Web oficial del Museo Fangio |title=Quinta parte (1959-1984) |url=http://www.museofangio.com/es/biografia/5-quinta-parte-1959-1984/}}<!-- auto-translated from Spanish by Module:CS1 translator -->
</ref> He also participated in many world exhibition races, tributes to motorsport figures and in the organization of events related to his profession. In 1960 he carried out an exhibition at the [[Sarmiento Park]] in [[Córdoba, Argentina|Córdoba]] city, with a Maserati 2500 of [[Ettore Chimeri]], with which he suffered a run off the track, brushed a curb and accidentally lifted into the air without consequences. He became honorary president of the Club International des Anciens Pilotes de Grand Prix F1 in 1962.<ref name="Web5"/>

In 1968, he collaborated with [[Automóvil Club Argentino]] in the organization of the Formula 2 International Championship held in Argentina, a task that would become constant during the following years. Shortly thereafter, he headed the "84 Hours of Nürburgring" project for Argentine-made [[IKA-Renault Torino]] cars and traveled to Germany as a driver advisor with the Argentine team.<ref name="Internet">{{cite web|access-date=15 February 2011 |archive-date=17 October 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081017150443/http://www.fangio.com.ar/bio.html |location=Argentina |publisher=fangio.com.ar |title=Biografía |url=http://www.fangio.com.ar/bio.html}}<!-- auto-translated from Spanish by Module:CS1 translator --></ref>

Fangio took part in the so-called "Carrera del Recuerdo", held on 17 October 1973 at the [[Autódromo Oscar y Juan Gálvez|Autódromo de Buenos Aires]] with a Fiat Berlina 125. Legendary motorsport figures such as [[Oscar Alfredo Gálvez]] also took part in the race.<ref name="Web5"/>

Fangio served as the flagman for the Argentine Grand Prix from 1972 to 1981, and for [[NASCAR]]'s [[Jack Link's 500|Winston 500]] in 1975.

He was appointed president of Mercedes-Benz Argentina in April 1974 and the following year, he was part of an exhibition test in [[Dijon]] on the occasion of the Swiss Grand Prix aboard a Maserati 250F. On the 50th anniversary of the Nürburgring circuit, Fangio took part in the Fifth International Race of Historic Racing and Sports Cars, called "Parade of Remembrance", with the Mercedes-Benz W196 R. In 1979 he raced at the English circuit of [[Donington Park]] on the occasion of an event organized by the Gunnar Nilsson Foundation.<ref name="Web5"/>

Fangio was the special guest of the 50th anniversary [[1978 Australian Grand Prix]] at the [[Sandown Raceway]] in [[Melbourne]] (seven years before the [[Australian Grand Prix]] became a round of the World Championship in {{f1|1985}}). After awarding the [[Lex Davison|Lex Davison Trophy]] to race winner [[Graham McRae]] (who stated that meeting Fangio was a bigger thrill than actually winning the race for the third time), Fangio drove his 1954 and 1955 World Championship-winning Mercedes-Benz W196 in a spirited three lap exhibition against three other cars, including the {{f1|1966}} World Championship winning [[Brabham BT19]] driven by Australia's own triple World Champion [[Jack Brabham]]. Despite his car being over ten years older than the [[Repco Brabham]], Fangio pushed the Australian all the way to the flag. Before the event, Fangio (who at 67 years of age and not having raced competitively in 20 years, still held a full [[FIA]] [[FIA Super Licence|Super Licence]]) had stated his intention of racing and not just putting in a demonstration drive.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeQ_jVjBvg4| archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211211/QeQ_jVjBvg4| archive-date=11 December 2021 | url-status=live|title=Fangio vs Brabham, 1978|last=edisjasarevic|date=13 October 2006|access-date=8 December 2017|via=YouTube}}{{cbignore}}</ref>

After racing in the Brussels Rally in 1981, he participated aboard a Chevrolet TC in the Gran Premio del Recuerdo, a caravan held in 1983 through the center of the Buenos Aires city to raise funds for the Patronato de la Infancia and the Asociación de Ayuda al Menor of the Buenos Aires province.<ref name="Web5"/>

In 1980, [[Konex Foundation]] granted him the Diamond [[Konex Award]] as the best Sportsman of the decade in Argentina. In 1981 Fangio travelled to Monza for the Italian Grand Prix, where he was reunited with his Tipo 159 Alfa Romeo from 1951 and the 1954 Lancia D50 for a couple of demonstrative laps. For the event Fangio was joined by old friends and fellow racers, including [[Toulo de Graffenried]], [[Luigi Villoresi]] and [[Giorgio Scarlatti]] as well as former Alfa Romeo managers from the 1950s Paolo Marzotto and Battista Guidotti.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.motorsportmagazine.com/archive/article/august-1956/53/monza-moments|title=Monza moments|website=Motor Sport|date=7 July 2014 |access-date=25 April 2020|archive-date=3 August 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200803183701/https://www.motorsportmagazine.com/archive/article/august-1956/53/monza-moments|url-status=live}}</ref>

Fangio met the young Brazilian driver [[Ayrton Senna]] at the opening of the Grand Prix Strecke, the short circuit inside the Nürburgring Norschleiffe, in 1984. After that initial meeting, the five-time champion told the young driver, "Now I understand why people speak so highly of you". The good chemistry between the two drivers was immediate, and over time the friendship was firmly forged. Senna often traveled to Argentina to meet with Fangio, where, among other things, the young Brazilian would ask the champion for advice on how to run better on the circuits, and the experienced former driver would happily give it to him.<ref name="Senna">{{Cite news |last=Iriart |first=Alejo |date=May 1, 2024 |title=Ayrton Senna, a 30 años de su muerte: su amistad con Juan Manuel Fangio |language=Spanish |work=[[ESPN|ESPN Argentina]] |url=https://www.espn.com.ar/deporte-motor/f1/nota/_/id/13586520/la-amistad-de-ayrton-senna-con-juan-manuel-fangio |access-date=March 8, 2025}}</ref>

In the [[1990 Australian Grand Prix]], which was held on the [[Adelaide]] streets, Formula 1 celebrated its 500th race and to celebrate it, they staged a photo-op that would go down in history. They brought together several champions: [[Nelson Piquet]] (active driver), Jack Brabham, [[James Hunt]], [[Jackie Stewart]], [[Denny Hulme]], Senna and the ''Chueco''. Ayrton raised Fangio's arm, as if he were the judge of a boxing match, giving his blessing to the winner. After the event, the Argentinean former driver invited the then McLaren driver to Argentina to celebrate that season's title.<ref name="Senna"/><ref name=lastyears>{{cite web|title=Biography of Juan Manuel Fangio (1985–1995 Part Six)|url=http://www.museofangio.com/es/biografia/6-sexta-parte-1985-1995/|publisher=Museo Fangio|access-date=23 August 2012|language=es|archive-date=20 August 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120820080409/http://www.museofangio.com/es/biografia/6-sexta-parte-1985-1995|url-status=live}}</ref>

Fangio was inducted into the [[International Motorsports Hall of Fame]] in 1990. He returned to the spotlight in 1994, when he publicly opposed a new [[Province of Buenos Aires]] law denying driving licences to those over 80 (which included Fangio). Denied a renewal of his card, Fangio reportedly challenged Traffic Bureau personnel to a race between Buenos Aires and seaside [[Mar del Plata]] (a 400&nbsp;km (250&nbsp;mi) distance) in two hours or less, following which an exception was made for the five-time champion.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.lanacion.com.ar/nota.asp?nota_id=1027664 |title=''La Nación'': Cuándo los mayores no deben manejar |publisher=Lanacion.com.ar |access-date=20 March 2011 |language=es |archive-date=10 August 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080810180305/http://www.lanacion.com.ar/nota.asp?nota_id=1027664 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

Ayrton Senna would later invite Fangio again to the [[1993 Brazilian Grand Prix]] race held at the [[Interlagos circuit]] in São Paulo, where the Brazilian driver emerged victorious. Senna celebrated his victory with Fangio, the last time they were seen together in public. Both drivers would later have private meetings where Senna would often travel to Argentina or Fangio would travel to Senna's house in Brazil.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Faturos |first=Federico |date=March 28, 2020 |title=La victoria de Senna en Brasil 1993 y el encuentro con Fangio |language=Spanish |work=[[Motorsport Latam]] |url=https://lat.motorsport.com/f1/news/ayrton-senna-brasil-1993-fangio/3210285/ |access-date=March 8, 2025}}</ref> When Senna died in an accident at the [[1994 San Marino Grand Prix|San Marino Grand Prix]] in May 1994, Fangio deeply mourned the driver's death.

He was appointed honorary president of Mercedes-Benz Argentina in 1987, the only distinction granted in its history by the German company, and held the position until 1994. Fangio was appointed president of the [[Renault]] Foundation in 1990 and continued to make public appearances especially in international exhibition races until his health began to deteriorate. He held his last competition on the [[Sardinia]] Island in 1993 aboard an Alfetta 159 in the company of other figures of his time.<ref name="Web6"/>

===His role at Mercedes-Benz during the Argentine military dictatorship===

On the centenary of his birth in 2011, two projects were presented in the Legislature of the City of Buenos Aires by the [[Republican Proposal|PRO]] to honor him, which were resisted by both the Buenos Aires Deputy Ombudsman's Office and by the representative [[Delia Bisutti]],<ref>{{cite web|access-date=26 December 2011 |archive-date=26 December 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121226065648/http://tiempo.infonews.com/notas/homenaje-sin-memoria |date=29 May 2011 |first=Alejandro |last=Wall |publisher=Tiempo Argentino |title=Un homenaje sin memoria |url=http://tiempo.infonews.com/notas/homenaje-sin-memoria}}<!-- auto-translated from Spanish by Module:CS1 translator --></ref> who pointed out that "a claim is being made for Fangio in its entirety and someone of his renown could not be oblivious to what was happening. "Here there was a military dictatorship with civic accompaniment, and it is very important to highlight what happened to Fangio." Fernando de Andreis, the deputy who presented the project, dismissed the accusation, stating that it was unfounded. [[Graciela Borges]], widow of Juan Manuel Bordeu, also defended Fangio, arguing that the visit to Venezuela made by the broker in the 70s would have been made with any other government.<ref>{{cite web|access-date=26 December 2011 |archive-date=2 May 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140502134422/http://www.corsaonline.com.ar/2009/06/24/N-925-quien-te-crees-que-sos-fangio.php |date=29 June 2009 |url-status=dead |first=Leo |last=Lucente |publisher=Revista Corsa |title=¿Quién te crees que sos? ¿Fangio? |url=http://www.corsaonline.com.ar/2009/06/24/N-925-quien-te-crees-que-sos-fangio.php}}<!-- auto-translated from Spanish by Module:CS1 translator --></ref>

====Juan Manuel Fangio Motorsport Museum====

{{Main|Museo Juan Manuel Fangio}}

[[File:Museo del Automovilismo J.M. Fangio.JPG|thumb|right|250px|Juan Manuel Fangio Motorsport Museum.]]

In 1979, some residents of the city of Balcarce began to promote the formation of a work commission to the construction of a Museum when they learned of Fangio's intention to gather all his trophies, cars and presents accumulated throughout his life sports in one place. On 26 October of that year, the "Juan Manuel Fangio Motorsport Pro-Museum Commission" was established under municipal support.<ref name="museo">{{cite web|access-date=1 May 2014 |location=Argentina |publisher=Sitio web oficial del Museo Fangio |title=Historia |url=http://www.museofangio.com/es/historia/}}<!-- auto-translated from Spanish by Module:CS1 translator --></ref>

An old building from 1906, in which the Municipality and the Deliberative Council of Balcarce had functioned, was chosen to establish the museum. Although the building had been closed for years, and was in a deplorable state of conservation, it occupied a lot of significant proportions and was located in the southern corner of the town's main square. The community history of the building generated a desire to recover it as the city's architectural heritage.<ref name="museo"/>

Aware at the end of 1980 of the proposal of the Pro-museum Commission, [[Province of Buenos Aires]] ''De facto'' Governor, Ibérico Saint Jean, promoted it and provided the initial capital that made the bidding and the beginnings possible. of the work.<ref name="museo"/>

The economic contributions, which given the inflationary process was close to 18% of the cost (at the beginning it represented 75%-80%), was expanded with donations from national and international companies, people adhering to the project, contributions from Fangio himself and was completed with different activities organized by the commission.

The former racer donated all his trophies and a wide variety of automobiles to the municipality of Balcarce in 1983 for later presentation at the Museum.<ref name="Web5"/> Finally, on 22 November 1986, the [[Museo Juan Manuel Fangio|Juan Manuel Fangio Technological-Cultural Center and Automobile Museum]] was inaugurated.<ref name="museo"/><ref name="Autovisie199101">{{cite journal|author-link=Rob Wiedenhoff (Nico de Jong Ed) |date=5 January 1991 |language=en |pages=44–51 |periodical=Autovisie |title=Op bezoek bij Juan Manuel Fangio: de mythe |volume=1991 nr 1}}<!-- auto-translated from Spanish by Module:CS1 translator --></ref>

The restoration of the building and its contents caused astonishment among visitors and world journalists, leading it to be described as the most important motorsports museum in South America and the best dedicated to a competitive driver.<ref name="museo"/>

Upon concluding its objective, the Pro-Museum Commission was dissolved. However, at the request of Fangio and [[Juan Manuel Bordeu]], the Juan Manuel Fangio Automobile Museum Foundation was created, an entity that manages and governs the destiny of the museum and is responsible for preserving, maintaining and increasing Fangio's sports heritage.<ref name="museo"/>

===Decreased health and death===

The former racer's health deteriorated in the last decades of his life.<ref name="Web5"/><ref name="Web6"/> In December 1970, he suffered a serious heart attack and in 1981, after exhibiting a Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR in [[Dubai]], he had another heart attack. The following year he was subjected to a surgical intervention in which the renowned Cardiologist Doctor [[René Favaloro]] implanted five ''[[Bypass surgery|bypass]]''.<ref name="Gráfico">{{cite journal|date=1995 |first=Pablo |last=Vignone |number=3954 |periodical=Revista 'El Gráfico'. |title=Homenaje al más grande (1911-1995): vida y hazaña de un hombre ejemplar}}<!-- auto-translated from Spanish by Module:CS1 translator --></ref>

In the late 1980s he was diagnosed with chronic [[kidney failure]] and in 1992, he underwent surgery to remove a [[benign tumor]] from his [[kidneys]]. He suffered an intestinal infection in 1993 in [[Stuttgart]], for which he had to be hospitalized. At the end of that year he had to be admitted again for fifteen days to the Mater Dei Clinic due to blood [[hypercalcemia]].<ref name="Web6"/>  In his last years he had to undergo three weekly sessions of [[Kidney dialysis|dialysis]] by Doctor Roque Sala at the same time that he began with a progressive loss of consciousness and motor problems derived from his previous pathologies. After an emergency hospitalization in January 1995, he confined himself to his home in Palermo Viejo, where he continued with treatment and abandoned practically all his public appearances.<ref name="Web6"/>

On 14 July 1995, he suffered from [[respiratory failure]] with excess phlegm that led to his admission to the Mater Dei Clinic, where he was diagnosed with [[bronchopneumonia]]. One day later he had a respiratory crisis and his diagnosis worsened on 16 July when he suffered a decompensation in his state of health that until then had remained stable. Fangio died on 17 July 1995 at 84 years old at 4:10 AM [[UTC-3]] in [[Buenos Aires]].<ref name="Web6"/><ref>{{cite web|author=Arias, Jaime |date=18 July 1995 |page=2 |periodical=[[La Vanguardia]] |title=La velocidad tranquila |url=http://hemeroteca-paginas.lavanguardia.com/LVE01/PUB/1995/07/18/REV19950718-002.pdf}}<!-- auto-translated from Spanish by Module:CS1 translator --></ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Faija |first=Sabrina |date=July 17, 2020 |title=Juan Manuel Fangio, a 25 años de su muerte: tres velatorios y un funeral masivo en Balcarce |language=Spanish |work=[[Clarín (Argentine newspaper)|Clarín]] |url=https://www.clarin.com/deportes/juan-manuel-fangio-25-anos-muerte-velatorios-funeral-masivo-balcarce_0_EfHMlodya.html |access-date=12 January 2025}}</ref>

After learning of the death of the former racer, President of the Nation Argentina [[Carlos Saúl Menem]] arranged the White Room of the [[Casa Rosada]] for his funeral. His pallbearers were his younger brother Ruben Renato ("Toto"), fellow racing icons [[Stirling Moss]] and Jackie Stewart, compatriot champions [[José Froilán González]] and [[Carlos Reutemann]], and the president of Mercedes-Benz Argentina at the time.<ref>{{cite book|last=Donaldson|first=Gerald|title=Fangio: The Life Behind the Legend|publisher=[[Virgin Books]]|year=2003|location=London|page=304|isbn=978-0-7535-1827-4}}</ref>

The president of FIFA, [[João Havelange]], expressed his condolences and [[Jackie Stewart]], three-time Formula 1 world champion and personal friend of Fangio, decided to travel for the funeral. The president of the FIA, [[Max Mosley]], immediately traveled to Argentina upon learning of Fangio's death.<ref name="Gráfico"/>

After the first funeral at the Casa Rosada, the remains of the former racer were transferred for a new funeral at the headquarters of the Automóvil Club Argentino and then a last funeral was held at the Fangio Museum before finally being placed in the family pantheon of the Balcarce Cemetery.<ref name="Web6"/><ref>Donaldson (2003), p. 304</ref>

In 2021, the remains of the racer were moved from the Balcarce Cemetery to the [[Museo Juan Manuel Fangio|Museum that bears his name]], in the same city where he was born and grew up more than 110 years ago, being the culmination of a ceremony that lasted two days full of tributes to Fangio, coinciding also with the 70th anniversary of his first Formula 1 victory. The ceremony was attended by Oscar “Cacho”, Ruben and Juan Carlos, the three sons of the quintuple, together with outstanding national and world motorsport personalities such as Sir Jackie Stewart, Oreste Berta and [[Horacio Pagani (auto executive)|Horacio Pagani]], who were also Fangio's friends. After the Roman Catholic religious service, officiated by the Mar del Plata's Bishop, the coffin with the remains of the former racer was placed in a special vault in the Museum, next to the trophies he won and some of the cars with which he had his successful racing career.<ref>{{cite web|access-date=13 November 2023 |title=Los restos de Fangio descansan en el Museo |url=https://www.ole.com.ar/autos/traslado-juan-manuel-fangio_0_mYpYis7KC.html |website=ole.com.ar}}<!-- auto-translated from Spanish by Module:CS1 translator --></ref>

==Personal life==
[[File:Fangio with Andrea Berruet Nurburgring 1957 crop.jpg|thumb|right|Andrea Berruet congratulates Fangio after his victory in the [[1957 German Grand Prix]].]]

Fangio never married, but was romantically involved for more than twenty years with Andrea “Beba” Berruet, with whom he had a son on April 6, 1938: Oscar “Cacho” Espinoza. He was registered with the surname of Berruet's husband, Luis Alcides Espinoza, because they were not legally separated, since at that time civil divorce did not yet exist in Argentina.

The relationship between Berruet and Fangio did not last beyond the racer's sporting retirement in the early 1960s, but shortly before, in 1955, Fangio began legal proceedings for the adoption of his own eldest son, something he abandoned shortly thereafter.

Oscar Espinoza's first opportunity to try to get his real last name was in 1966. "Cacho", who against his father's wishes (Fangio wanted his son to study medicine at University) became a racing driver, had the opportunity to go racing in the [[European Formula Two Championship]].<ref name=faija>{{Cite news |last=Faija |first=Sabrina |date=November 17, 2021 |title=La verdadera historia de los hijos de Fangio y por qué no eran reconocidos como herederos |language=Spanish |work=[[Clarín (Argentine newspaper)|Clarín]] |url=https://www.clarin.com/deportes/verdadera-historia-hijos-fangio-reconocidos-herederos_0_S0W-T3_Xb.amp.html |access-date=September 9, 2024}}</ref> Because he had to renew his passport to travel to Europe, and the renewal process was delayed, Juan Manuel told his son that the only chance to get his passport renewed as quickly as possible was to add the surname Fangio to his Identity Card, and that was how it was given. Thus began his professional career in motorsport as "Cacho" Fangio, although it was known that this was only a patch and not a concrete reality.<ref name="faija"/>

"Cacho" even participated in the Argentine Mission, organized by his father, of the 84 Hours of Nürburgring in August 1969, where national cars [[IKA Torino]], prepared by the renowned mechanic [[Oreste Berta]], competed.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Clarin |first=Redacción |date=July 17, 2020 |title=Oscar, Rubén y Juan Carlos: los 3 hijos que Fangio jamás reconoció y que el ADN los hizo herederos |language=Spanish |work=[[Clarín (Argentine newspaper)|Clarín]] |url=https://www.clarin.com/deportes/oscar-ruben-juan-carlos-3-hijos-fangio-jamas-reconocio-adn-hizo-herederos_0_Atggcv2y7.html |access-date=January 1, 2025}}</ref>

In the 1970s, the relationship between Fangio and his eldest son deteriorated almost completely because "Cacho" began to demand that his father give him his real last name. Espinoza filed a filiation lawsuit against Juan Manuel Fangio, repudiating Luis Alcides Espinoza's paternity. The lawsuit was rejected in First and Second Instance by the National Civil Court of the Capital Federal. Fangio and his son stopped talking to each other for many years. Even, in the homage that the President of the Nation Argentina [[Carlos Saúl Menem]] paid to the former racer in 1994 for the 25th anniversary of the 84 Hours of Nürburgring 1969, they met again and only shook hands. The following year, with Fangio's health deteriorating, they met again at the racer's home in Buenos Aires, where father and son were able to reconcile and have a quiet chat, being the last time Fangio was able to see his eldest son, shortly time before his death.<ref name=faija/>

In 2000, Espinoza publicly admitted in an interview to ''[[Ole (sports newspaper)|Olé]]'' that he was the former racer's unrecognized son and in 2008 he initiated a case in a Buenos Aires civil court to prove his filiation and to be able to use his paternal surname.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www-clarin-com.translate.goog/deportes/verdadera-historia-hijos-fangio-reconocidos-herederos_0_S0W-T3_Xb.html?_x_tr_sl=es&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=sc | title=La verdadera historia de los hijos de Fangio y por qué no eran reconocidos como herederos | date=17 November 2021 | access-date=6 May 2022 | archive-date=24 March 2023 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230324021718/https://www-clarin-com.translate.goog/deportes/verdadera-historia-hijos-fangio-reconocidos-herederos_0_S0W-T3_Xb.html?_x_tr_sl=es&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=sc | url-status=live }}</ref><ref>«[http://www.infocanuelas.com/noticia/2054/un-hijo-no-reconocido-de-fangio-vive-en-ca%C3%B1uelas.html Un hijo no reconocido de Fangio vive en Cañuelas] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131002112955/http://www.infocanuelas.com/noticia/2054/un-hijo-no-reconocido-de-fangio-vive-en-ca%C3%B1uelas.html |date=2 October 2013 }}» InfoCañuelas, 17 de noviembre de 2009. Consultado el 19 de febrero de 2011.</ref>

After Fangio's death, it was “Cacho's” youngest daughter, Carolina, who urged her father to continue with the parentage claim even though the former racer was no longer physically present. Espinoza stopped the filiation claim because his daughter, who had urged him to continue with the claim, died of Cancer in 2011. "Cacho" was plunged into sadness by the death of his daughter and only two years later was he able to resume the search for his true identity.<ref name=faija/>

In 2005, Rubén Juan Vázquez, a former railway and hotelier employee born in Balcarce and currently residing in the town of [[Cañuelas]], filed a paternity suit similar to the one already filed by “Cacho” Espinoza to find out if he is indeed also Fangio's son. Born 4 years after Espinoza (on June 25, 1942, the day after Fangio's 31st birthday), Vázquez claimed to be the fruit of an extramarital relationship between his mother, Catalina Basili, and Fangio, whom he met when Rubén's maternal half-brother, Ricardo Vázquez, suffered an accident while working in the mechanical workshop that the racer owned in Balcarce. The extramarital relationship between Basili and Fangio that later resulted in the pregnancy was a secret that not even Pedro Antonio Vázquez, Basili's husband, knew about during his lifetime.<ref name=vazquez>{{Cite web |date=March 8, 2016 |title=Rubén Vázquez "Fangio"|language=Spanish |work=Miguel Pierri Abogado |url=https://miguelpierriabogado.com.ar/2016/09/08/ruben-vazquez-fangio/ |access-date=September 9, 2024}}</ref> Fangio was Vázquez's baptismal godfather, and even at one point, at that time without knowing or suspecting that he was his biological father, he turned to the former racer to ask for a recommendation to go to work at Mercedes Benz, due to the difference salaries since they paid better salaries in the automotive industry than in the Railway, where Vázquez worked at that time.

Rubén's first suspicion about his true identity arose in 1995 when he worked in a Hotel in [[Pinamar]]. A doctor, a client of the Hotel, who noticed Vázquez's physical resemblance to Fangio told him that when he took a DNA test he was going to get a surprise.<ref name=faija/>

After ten years and after receiving more comments that he was similar to Fangio not only physically but also in his voice, in 2005 Vázquez decided to confront his mother to find out the truth about whether or not he was the son of the former racer, although she was still weighed down by the extramarital relationship she had had with the “Chueco” decades ago. After several refusals, Basili finally confessed the truth to his son. Vázquez turned to the [[Law firm]] of the renowned Lawyer Miguel Ángel Pierri and his partner, Lisandro Faisal, who initiated the filiation case that would determine if Vázquez was indeed Fangio's son.<ref>{{Cite web |language=Spanish |work=La Capital MDP |access-date=September 9, 2024 |title="Yo sabía que él era mi padre y él sabía que yo era su hijo" |url=https://www.lacapitalmdp.com/ruben-fangio-yo-sabia-que-el-era-mi-padre-y-el-sabia-que-yo-era-su-hijo/ }}</ref>

Catalina Basili died in December 2012, at 103 years old, but shortly before her death she had signed a deed before a [[Notary|Notary Public]] admitting that her son was the fruit of a relationship with Fangio.<ref name=vazquez/>

In order to initially follow up on the filiation lawsuit filed by Espinoza, on July 16, 2015, the Civil and Commercial Judge of Mar del Plata, Rodrigo Cataldo, ordered the exhumation of Fangio's body from the Municipal Cemetery of Balcarce, which took place on August 7 of the same year. After the exhumation and in order to extract samples from the racer's remains, experts sent by the Civil and Commercial Judge of La Plata, Daniel Dipp, who was in charge of Rubén Vázquez's filiation case, were also present. The samples were sent to laboratories in [[La Plata]], where they were compared with the blood samples of Espinoza and Vázquez<ref>{{cite web|access-date=11 July 2015 |date=10 July 2015 |publisher=Minuto 1 |title=Exhumarán el cuerpo de Fangio a pedido de un presunto hijo |url=http://www.minutouno.com/notas/1276987-exhumaran-el-cuerpo-fangio-pedido-un-presunto-hijo}}<!-- auto-translated from Spanish by Module:CS1 translator --></ref><ref>[http://www.prensa.com/deportes/Exhumaran-cadaver-quintuple-campeon-Formula_0_4251325000.html Exhumarán el cadáver de Juan Manuel Fangio] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150712204916/http://www.prensa.com/deportes/Exhumaran-cadaver-quintuple-campeon-Formula_0_4251325000.html |date=12 July 2015 }} – La Prensa {{in lang|es}}</ref> In December 2015, the Court confirmed that Espinosa was indeed Fangio's son,<ref>[http://www.clarin.com/sociedad/fangio-espinosa-cacho-adn-paternidad-hijo_0_1482452200.html Confirman que "Cacho" Espinosa es hijo de Fangio – Clarín] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160130203040/http://www.clarin.com/sociedad/fangio-espinosa-cacho-adn-paternidad-hijo_0_1482452200.html |date=30 January 2016 }} {{in lang|es}}.</ref> and in February 2016, it was confirmed that Rubén Vázquez was also Fangio's son.<ref>[http://442.perfil.com/2016-02-04-415889-confirmaron-que-ruben-vazquez-es-hijo-de-juan-manuel-fangio/ Confirmaron que Rubén Vázquez es hijo de Fangio – Cuatro Cuatro Dos] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170915161417/http://442.perfil.com/2016-02-04-415889-confirmaron-que-ruben-vazquez-es-hijo-de-juan-manuel-fangio/ |date=15 September 2017 }} {{in lang|es}}.</ref>

In June 2016, Juan Carlos Rodríguez, a retired [[Agricultural Engineer]], born in 1945 in Balcarce and currently residing in the same City, underwent an initial DNA study with Oscar Fangio, who had known each other for more than three decades, although at that time both did not know they were brothers, because although Rodríguez knew that his father was Juan Manuel, “Cacho” believed that Rodríguez was the son of Rubén Renato Aniceto Fangio, “Toto”, the younger brother of the racer and father of the also racing driver [[Juan Manuel Fangio II]].<ref name="faija"/>

Juan Carlos was the fruit of a brief relationship between Silvia Rodriguez, who was fifteen years old at the time, and the racer, who was already thirty-three years old.The genetic result between Rodriguez and Cacho Fangio was that they are brothers with a certainty of almost 98%, which would lead to the conclusion that Rodriguez would also be the son of Juan Manuel, although the next step was still missing, which was to perform the same study by matching the DNA samples of Rodriguez with those extracted from the remains of the “Chueco”.“<ref>”[http://www.eldiariobalcarce.com.ar/confirmado-juan-rodriguez-es-hermano-de-cacho-fangio-235]” Confirmado: Juan Rodríguez es hermano de "Cacho Fangio".</ref>

Fangio's record of five World Championship titles stood for 46 years until German driver Michael Schumacher surpassed it in 2003. Schumacher said, "Fangio is on a level much higher than I see myself.

There is not even the slightest comparison."<ref name=msquotesbbc>{{cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/motorsport/formula_one/3181448.stm|title=Schumi: Fangio was greater than me|publisher=BBC|access-date=29 September 2006|date=12 October 2003|location=London|archive-date=26 June 2006|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060626195744/http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/motorsport/formula_one/3181448.stm|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name=msquotesgpindy>{{cite news|url=http://www.usgpindy.com/news/story.php?story_id=2067|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031127231132/http://www.usgpindy.com/news/story.php?story_id=2067|url-status=dead|archive-date=27 November 2003|title=Champion Schumacher Rejects Comparisons To Fangio|publisher=usgpindy.com|access-date=29 September 2006}}</ref> When [[Lewis Hamilton]] equaled Fangio's five titles in [[2018 Formula One World Championship|2018]] he praised Fangio calling him the "Godfather of our sport".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2018/oct/18/lewis-hamilton-formula-one-us-grand-prix|title=Lewis Hamilton hails Formula One 'Godfather' Juan Manuel Fangio|agency=Press Association|date=18 October 2018|website=The Guardian|language=en|access-date=31 October 2018|archive-date=1 November 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181101175559/https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2018/oct/18/lewis-hamilton-formula-one-us-grand-prix|url-status=live}}</ref>
