1946 Grand Prix season
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
First post-war year for Grand Prix motor racing
The 1946 Grand Prix season was the first post-war year for Grand Prix motor racing. It was notable for including the first ever race run to the future Formula One criteria which would come into effect on 1 January 1947, the 1946 Turin Grand Prix. There was no organised championship in 1946, although Raymond Sommer proved to be the most successful driver, winning five Grands Prix. Maserati's cars proved difficult to beat, winning 9 of the season's 18 Grand Prix races.
