Details

Juan Manuel Fangio (Balcarce, June 24, 1911 - Buenos Aires, July 17, 1995) was a legendary Argentinian Formula 1 driver; he won the world championship five times, four times in a row, between 1954-57. Michael Schumacher is the only one who has surpassed this. Balcarce-born Juan Manuel started his career as a racing driver in South America in 1934 in long-distance competitions and became Argentinian champion in 1940 and 1941. The outbreak of World War II interrupted his career, and he did not start until 1947 to race in Europe.
