Summary The fifth race was set in Britain and contained 20 racers. For a first time ever, Alfa Romeo would not only keep the three main drivers but would also create a fourth car for Luigi Fagioli, however, after selling the car away, he decided to quit. Bonetto, the former man to head the Milano project would take over Fagioli's contract to run the remaining races of the season for Alfa Romeo as a fourth car. The Ferrari had felt that they were getting to the power of the Alfa Romeo apart from a few problems in the 375 chassis. A new car had also come into play which was the the BRM, ( with reluctant choice from Raymond Mays, team founder and Peter Berthon due to it feeling incomplete ). At the beginning, Bonetto would manage to leave seventh place and manage to surpass the Alfa Romeo to the Villoresi leading the BRM to a too good to be true start. Which would be the case after Bonetto fell to fifth and on lap 15, Villoresi failed a maneuver on Bonetto at Copse and spun. By the time Villoresi rejoined, the final Alfa Romeo of Sanesi had taken sixth place. The Alfa Romeo would be again faced with the Ferrari and Ascari fight which lead to them being outpaced by Ferrari and even more in trouble during their pit stop and Farina breaking down with clutch failure allowing Villoresi to move into fourth position. In the end, the race was won by José Froilán González with a time of 2" 42' 18.2.
