1951 Belgian Grand Prix

Summary The third race was in Belgium and had 16 racers. One surprising fact about this race, was that the racers leaderboard would be much smaller than before, leaving out the Maserati and the Enrico Platé, Alfa Romeo would also decide to keep it's three main drivers and have Fangio race the car with the triple fuel tank. Fangio's start had been terrible, he dropped to fifth place behind Villoresi, Farina, Ascari and Sanesi. Étancelin had failed to make it off the start-line, his Talbot-Lago failing with transmission problems. Fangio would then have a fight with Ferrari and Villoresi but he would win it and would manage to keep a good race after that. However, Fangio would have the opposite. In the pit stop, the mechanics had realized that his car would not be able to start again due to a stuck hub and would take a long time to fix. Fangio remained cool throughout the pit stop, his frustrations appearing to not show through his character. Fangio took to the race track in last place. In the end, the race was won by Nino Farina with a time of 2:45:46.2.
