High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The 1955 Formula One season included the 6th FIA Formula One World Championship season, which commenced on January 16, 1955, and ended on September 11 after seven races. Juan Manuel Fangio retained his title in a season that was curtailed by tragedies. Mercedes again dominated the season, with Fangio taking four races, and his new team mate Moss the British Grand Prix. Ferrari won at Monaco after the Mercedes broke down and Ascari crashed into the harbour. Although Ascari was apparently unscathed, the double World Champion crashed fatally at Monza while testing sportscars four days later. The disaster at the 24 Hours of Le Mans on 11 June which killed Pierre Levegh and over 80 spectators led to the cancellations of the French, German, Spanish and Swiss Grands Prix. Moss' win at Aintree took the title battle to the final round, fittingly at Monza. A mechanical failure ended Moss's challenge, and an entertaining battle, handing Fangio his third title.
