High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The 1958 Formula One season was the ninth season of FIA Formula One motor racing. It featured the 1958 World Championship of Drivers which commenced on January 19, 1958, and ended on October 19 after eleven races. It was also the first year in which a Constructors' Championship was awarded, known as the 1958 International Cup for F1 Manufacturers, won by Vanwall, which was contested concurrently with the World Championship of Drivers, won by Mike Hawthorn after a close battle with compatriot Stirling Moss. The season was one of the most important and tragic seasons in Formula One's history. Although the engine formula remained the same, minimum race lengths were reduced to 300 kilometres or two hours, and the use of commercial petrol became compulsory, in place of specialized alcohol-based racing fuels. The International Cup for F1 Manufacturers was awarded for the first time, but Ferrari's Mike Hawthorn won the driver's championship from Stirling Moss, despite the latter having won four of the ten grand prix to Hawthorn's one.
