Parting Shot: Luigi Villoresi lost in thought at start of 1953 British GP

Is Ferrari driver Luigi Villoresi thinking through his strategy before the start of the British Grand Prix? Villoresi is in notable company. Ferrari team manager Nello ‘Maestro’ Ugolini is studying a watch and chart. In 1957 he’d switch to Maserati after falling out with Enzo Ferrari. To the left is Giulio Ramponi, who had been a mechanic/engineer with Alfa Romeo before the war and in the 1950s became a Champion sparkplug rep. He settled in the UK around 1930 and masterminded the modernisation of Dick Seaman’s straight-8 Delage for 1936
