Product description
Son of Turin body stylist Giovanni Farina, who was the brother of the celebrated “Pinin”, Giuseppe Farina – alias Nino – (1906-1966) is one of the Italian great racing drivers of the past. His fast driving and elegant but still aggressive style came to light in the Thirties with Alfa Romeo at national and international levels and earned him the esteem of Tazio Nuvolari, who considered him his best “student”. After the long years of the Second World War, Farina returned to motor racing and won at the wheel of Alfa Romeos, Maseratis and Ferraris. Among his many successes, winning the first Formula One World Championship for drivers in 1950 driving an Alfa stands out. This book is the ninth in the “Racing Lives” series and is illustrated with spectacular, rare and unique pictures, the result of research carried out throughout the world.
