INTRODUCTION:1935 was the great year of Mercedes-Benz and Rudolf Caracciola, while Auto Union was struggling. It was also the first year of the AIACR European Championship.Grand Prix racing was becoming more and more a thing for the great manufacturers, private drivers had no chance to compete on equal terms any more. In 1935 therefore the Independent Drivers Association was formed in Paris by the amateur drivers in an attempt to better the situation. But the race organizers were not any longer ready to spend start money on also-runners, and one after an other the privateers left Grand Prix racing and turned to sports car or Voiturette racing instead. Whitney Straight left the scene altogether after unsuccessfully having tried to buy an Auto Union car for his team. And Maserati and Bugatti also lost their interest in GP racing during the season, leaving the field to Alfa Romeo and the two German teams. In the autumn AIACR and representatives for the teams met, trying to find a new racing formula, but the meeting was resultless and the existing 750 kg formula was extended to include also the 1937 season. 1935 was the year that Voiturette racing became an serious alternative for race organizers around Europe. More and more of the continental races were changed from the 1100cc to the 1500cc class. The reason for the change in attitude towards the class was the new British ERA, which during the season took over the honor from Maserati of being the leading Voiturette car manufacturer. And Maserati was willing to take up the challenge, realizing that the future for them lay in Voiturette, not in GP racing. |

II NORGES GRAND PRIX BOGSTAD-Oslo (N), 10 FEBRUARY 1935 25 laps x 5 km = 125 km, 17 starters The first race of the 1935 season was the Norwegian winter Grand Prix, moved away this year from Gjersjøn to a 5 km circuit laid out on Bogstadvannet, a frozen lake in the Sørkedalen valley 10 kilometers from Oslo. With some 25000 spectators turning up transports and crowd control in the snow filled valley proved a bit troublesome. The field included a decent number of GP cars and the racing class also included Finnish driver Alm who initially had entered his Flash Gordon inspired "tail Ford" in the sports car class. As expected the Nordic ice racing specialists dominated the race. Widengren immediately took the lead followed by Bjørnstad, Ebb, Rüesch and Isberg. After a few laps Ebb with his huge SSK passed Bjørnstad for second place. Soon afterwards Bjørnstad had a puncture and fell back. On lap 9 Sundstedt spun and crashed in a cloud of snow, luckily without recieving any major injuries. Widengren was in his own class and on lap 18 he lapped third placed Rüesch to put all except Ebb a lap behind. Bjørnstad had another puncture and was forced to do almost a full lap on the rim before being able to reaching the pit. After 25 laps Widengren took the flag to win the Norwegian GP second time in a row. Grid:

GRAND PRIX DE PAU PAU (F), 24 FEBRUARY 1935 80 laps * 2.769 km = 221.52 km, 15 entries - 13 starters. Weather: Sunny. It had been raining at Pau the night before the race but when the cars lined up the conditions were perfect. The Ferrari Alfa Romeo cars of Nuvolari and Dreyfus were the favourites and they faced Maseratis from Étancelin (in his old 8CM as the 6C-34 was not ready), Falchetto, Soffietti and Brunet. Rüesch had got stuck at the customs and was a non starter. Nuvolari's new Alfa with reveresed rear suspension proved to be fastest in practice with a time of 1:53 Just as expected the Ferrari cars took control over the race with Nuvolari leading from Dreyfus. The only driver being able to challenge them was Étancelin but he had to retire with a broken oil pump. At half distance Dreyfus led Nuvolari by 2 seconds with Falchetto third, one minute behind. Five laps from the finish Nuvolari passed Dreyfus and the Alfa Romeo drivers then cruised home to give Nuvolari a straight win in his comeback race for Ferrari. Four minutes behind them two Maseratis were fighting for third place and the cars actually collided once they had passed the line. DNA/DNS: 8 Rüesch (Maserati), 30 Boucly (Bugatti)Grid:

VII GRAND PRIX DE MONACO CIRCUIT DE MONACO (MC), 22 APRIL 1935 (Monday!) 100 laps * 3.180 km = 318.0 km
Mercedes-Benz reserve: Lang Alfa Romeo reserve: Trossi The Auto Union and Bugatti teams were absent from the Monaco Grand Prix. During practice Caracciola was in great form finishing on pole with a time of 1:56.6. Von Brauchitsch was also finally fully fit and was doing some fast laps around the for him unknown track, driving with his usual rugged style. Fagioli completed an all Mercedes front row. Scuderia Subalpina had just one 6C-34 ready so for a second entry they loaned the Rovere car for Farina. Zehender had a new 3.2L variant of the old 8CM. All the Ferrari cars featured the new rear suspension with quarter elliptic springs and hydraulic shock absorbers. Grid:
Race: The first major Grand Prix of the year was held at Monaco. At the start it was Fagioli who took the lead, followed by Caracciola, Dreyfus, Nuvolari, Étancelin, Chiron and Brivio. Von Brauchitsch did not get the chance to repeat his fine practice performance, he was out after only one lap with a broken gearbox. Farina's 6C-34 was an early retirement and Zehender struggled with brake troubles on his 8CM. Fagioli was going flat out and after five laps he had opened up a 1/2 minute gap to Caracciola, who had another gap to the rest of the field. The Alfa drivers were in trouble with their new hydraulic brakes. After 20 laps the two Mercedes cars were still leading from Dreyfus, who was 7 seconds in front of Étancelin in his 6C-34. By lap 30 Étancelin had moved up into third place behind the Mercedes duo and was opening up a gap to the Alfas of Dreyfus, Brivio and Nuvolari. Étancelin now started to take in on Caracciola and on lap 49 the Maserati driver pushed himself on the inside of the Mercedes-Benz in the Gasometre (now Rascasse) and up to second behind Fagioli. Caracciola answered the attack and succeeded to pass Étancelin on the uphill to the casino on lap 56. This furious driving proved fatal for both cars. Caracciola retired with a broken valve on lap 60 and Étancelin's Maserati lost both brakes and oil pressure and had to see the Alfas of Dreyfus and Brivio pass. Nuvolari had never been in the picture with serious brake problems and had given over his car to Trossi on lap 39. There was nothing the Ferrari drivers could do to Fagioli. The Mercedes driver took the flag after having led the race all the way from start to finish, the first driver to have done so in Monaco. Chiron, who had had trouble with the brakes during the whole race, had run out of fuel in front of the pits two laps from the end but was able to continue after some delay and finished fifth.

XXVI° TARGA FLORIO MADONIE - Sicily (I), 28 APRIL 1935, GP CLASS 6 laps * 72 km = 432 km, 21 starters The Ferrari Alfa Romeos of Brivio and Chiron dominated the last "real" GP car Targa Florio race in Sicily. The race started at 11 a.m on Sunday. Chiron took an early lead followed by Pintacuda (Alfa Romeo 2.9L), Brivio and Barbieri. At the end of the first lap the order was Chiron, Brivio, Magistri and Pintacuda. On the second lap Brivio took over the lead and Chiron, who was clearly in trouble with his car, soon also had to let Magistri by. Later Chiron managed to take back his second position. Brivio was never challenged and took the flag nearly 7 minutes in front of his team mate Chiron. The third Ferrari of Pintacuda (Tipo B 2.9L biposto) was a non-finisher. A charging Nando Barbieri was a sensational third with his Maserati 4CM Voiturette after having managed to pass Magistri. Of the top nine finishers eight were Alfa Romeos! The small 1100cc voiturette class, raced over four laps, was won by Ferrara (Fiat) after a duel with Baruffi (Maserati) No grid. Cars started in intervals. Race numbers: 2 Ferrara, 4 di Pietro, 6 Casano, 8 Toia, 10 Baruffi, 12 Battilana, 14 Pintacuda, 16 Sutera, 18 Barbieri, 20 Brivio, 22 Chiron, 24 Zeffiro, 28 Magistri, 30 Cortese, 32 Rüesch, 34 Ferrari, 36 Danese, 38 Antinori, 40 Belmondo, 42 Pages, 44 Geraci 1 Brivio (Alfa Romeo Tipo B 2.9L *) 5:27:29.0 2 Chiron (Alfa Romeo Tipo B 3.2L *) + 6:52.6 3 F Barbieri (Maserati 4CM 1.5L ) + 18:28.6 4 Magistri (Alfa Romeo Monza 2.6L) + 23:54.0 5 Balestrero (Alfa Romeo) + 31:32.0 6 Danese (Alfa Romeo Monza 2.3L) + 35:58.2 7 Belmondo (Alfa Romeo Monza 2.3L) + 36:43.6 8 Rüesch (Alfa Romeo Monza 2.3L) + 41:04.2 9 Antinori (Alfa Romeo 6C 1.8L) + 41:54.6 10 Toia (Fiat 508) +1:09:10.0 11 Ferrara (Fiat 508) +1:14:06.4 DNF Cortese (Alfa Romeo 6C 1.8L) 5 laps DNF Casano (Fiat 508) 4 laps DNF D Ferrari (Alfa Romeo Monza 2.3L) 3 laps DNF Pintacuda (Alfa Romeo Tipo B 2.9L *) 3 laps differential DNF de Pietro (Fiat 508) 3 laps DNF Sutera (OM) 2 laps DNF Baruffi (Maserati 4CM 1.1L) 2 laps exhaust DNF Geraci (Alfa Romeo 6C 1.5L) 1 lap clutch DNF Pages (Alfa Romeo Monza 2.3L) 1 lap clutch DNF Zeffiro (Bugatti T37) 0 laps engine DNF Battilana (Fiat 508) 0 laps engine * Entered by Scuderia Ferrari Fastest lap: Brivio (Alfa Romeo) 53:59.6 (80.010 km/h) |
GRAND PRIX DE TUNISIE CARTHAGE (F), 5 MAY 1935 FORMULA LIBRE 40 laps * 12.6 km = 504 km
Having won the Tunis GP twice before Varzi was keen to have his first start as an Auto Union driver there. The new Auto Union cars were not ready but Varzi persuaded the team to send an upgraded 1934 car to Tunis. Then there was unsuspected trouble when Varzi wanted his salary paid in Lire, the new Nazi economic policy having very hard restrictions on bringing cash out of Germany. It was decided that Varzi would start the race as an independent and collect the starting money and prizes for himself, but in the last moment the Germans changed their mind and Varzi was entered as a works driver. Auto Union's first driver Stuck was not amused when he found out in which way the team was going to start the season. The Scuderia Subalpina and Gino Rovere were there with their 6C-34s and Ferrari turned up with a bunch of Tipo-B:s. Nuvolari was meant to race the new Bi-motore but tyre trouble prevented this and instead Nuvolari raced a Tipo B car bored out to 3.2L. Grid:
Race: Once away Varzi was in a class of his own and took the flag almost four minutes ahead of Wimille's works Bugatti. The only thing that had troubled the Italian was a strong side wind on the fast parts of the track. Nuvolari held second place for a while before retiring with technical problems. Zehender crashed his 6C-34 after just 2 laps but the other 6C-34 cars of Étancelin and Farina did a good race to finish 3rd and 5th. The Ferrari team was in trouble with their old Tipo B cars clearly inferior to the new Maseratis.

IX° GRAN PREMIO DI TRIPOLI AUTODROMO DI MELLAHA (I), 12 MAY 1935 FORMULA LIBRE 40 laps * 13.140 km = 525.60 km
The Tripoli Grand Prix, a Formula Libre event like the Tunis race the week before, was held on the Mellaha circuit, the fastest road circuit in the world at that time. As usual the state lottery demanded a large field of cars. The high prizes offered attracted the full GP elite with three Mercedes-Benz, two Auto Unions, Gino Rovere's and Scuderia Subalpina's Maseratis and a full Ferrari team with four Tipo B and two of the new "Bi-motore" cars. Varzi and Stuck obviously now raced Typ B cars in early 1935 configuration even if initial plans (as seen in Kirchberg's book) was to race the Tunis car and a streamliner (Note 2). The German cars showed their class during practice. Stuck's car was fastest with a speed of 220.4 km/h from Nuvolari's Bi-motore and Caracciola's Mercedes. The Maseratis and Alfa Tipo B's were nowhere near to that speed. Practice times did not count for places on the grid however. Grid, positions decided by ballot :
Race: There was some fear before the start that the tyres would not stand the combination of hot weather and fast track during the race. Continental was well prepared with 300 tyres for the German teams alone. The Mercedes team was planning for a three stop tactics, Auto Union for two stops. When the flag fell at 3 PM Caracciola's Mercedes took the lead followed by Nuvolari and Varzi. After three laps Varzi was up to second place as Nuvolari already was in the pits, the "Bi-motore" eating both fuel and tyres at an amazing speed. and two laps later Caracciola was also in the pits for a 20 second stop after a front wheel puncture. Auto Union cars took the command of the race with Varzi leading from Stuck, Fagioli and Caracciola. Von Brauchitsch was already out with engine trouble. Starting down in the sixth row he never really got into the race. Nuvolari made his second stop on lap 7 and on lap 8 Caracciola was also in again, the tread gone on the rear tyres. He rejoined the race in 10th position a lap behind the leader, but soon Caracciola unlapped himself. When Varzi and Stuck stopped at lap 11 and 12 Fagioli became the new leader. Brivio had a bad crash with his Alfa Romeo, finishing in the cactus woods. At lap 16 Caracciola was in the pits for the third time, but he was not the only one, the speed and the heat were putting tremendous pressure on the tyres. At half point Varzi was leading from Fagioli, Dreyfus and Caracciola. Suddenly Stuck's car caught fire. The driver in his closed cockpit was however unaware of it for quite a while driving on with huge flames coming out of the rear of the car. When Stuck finally realized the situation the brakes had already gone and the driver had great problems to stop the car. A shaken Stuck was helped out of the closed cockpit by nearby officials. Varzi continued in the lead chased by Nuvolari's Alfa and Caracciola's and Fagioli's Mercedes cars. At lap 27 Caracciola made his fourth and final pit stop and yet another pitstop dropped Nuvolari down to fourth. At 30 laps the order was Varzi, Caracciola, Fagioli, Nuvolari, Dreyfus and Chiron. Nuvolari was not the one to leave Varzi in the lead unchallenged and he started the chase, going flat out. With 320 km/h on the straight he left the Mercedes cars standing and started attacking Varzi. The two Italians where racing side by side, banging wheels but then Nuvolari had to do yet another pitstop and Varzi could continue unchallenged. Caracciola and Fagioli followed a minute behind the Auto Union, and behind the two Mercedes cars came Farina in the 6C-34 Maserati, Nuvolari's Alfa and Étancelin with the other 6C-34. But the duel had taking its toll on Varzi's tyres too and with 5 laps to go one of his rear tyres disintegrated just as he passed the pits and the Auto Union had to make almost a full lap on the rims to the reserve pit. The hub was jammed on the wheel and Caracciola took over the lead before the Auto Union team was ready with the change. Varzi came out of the pits and took up the chase. With one lap to go he had caught the Mercedes but then another tyre blew and the race was over. Caracciola took the flag for his first victory of a season that should become one of his greatest.

IV ELÄINTARHANAJOT/DJURGĹRDSLOPPET ELÄINTARHARATA - Helsinki (FIN), 12 MAY 1935 FORMULA LIBRE + SPORTS CARS 50 laps * 2.000 km = 100 km, 14 starters. Half of the field consisted of GP cars with an entry list including Ebb's Mercedes, Bjørnstad's Alfa Romeo Monza, three Bugattis and Carlsson's little Amilcar. Henken Widengren was racing his brother's Alfa Romeo Monza. The rest of the entries, racing in their own class, consisted of rebuilt Chryslers, Fords and a Chevrolet. Ebb took the start to lead the race followed by Widengren. On the very first lap Finnish driver Gunnar Anderson's Ford overturned, the driver ending up with a fractured thigh. Bjørnstad was also immediately in trouble and had to pit on the first lap with dirty plugs. Elo's Bugatti was also slowing so the only real challenger for Ebb was Widengren, but he lost the second place to Sundstedt due to engine trouble early in the race and then he had great problems to re-pass the blocking Bugatti driver. After some fistshaking Widengren finally went by but had lost half a minute to Ebb. On lap 15 engine troubles forced Widengren to retire leaving Ebb to dominate the rest of the race. After 20 laps Ebb already held a one minute lead over Sundstedt. Bjørnstad's troubles continued as the Alfa stopped on the track and the driver had to spend a considerable time trying to restart it with the handle, spoiling all chances for a good position. Ramsay was the winner of the stock car class where both Sorri (Chrysler) and Patama (Ford) were black flagged for reckless driving, the latter was subsequently disqualified. Grid from secret 300m run:

I CIRCUITO DI BERGAMO/COPPA CITTA DI BERGAMO Bergamo (I), 19 MAY 1935 70 laps * 2.92 km = 204.4 km, 12 starters A huge crowd gathered to see this this rather minor Italian street race which was held inside the town walls of Bergamo. The grid was limited to 12 starters with Nuvolari (Alfa Romeo) being fastest during practice to take the pole from Alfa Romeo drivers Comotti and Mizotti. Soffietti was obviously racing a white/red Alfa Romeo Monza rather than the usual Maserati. When the flag dropped at 3.30 p.m. Nuvolari took an immediate lead followed by Farina, Comotti and Soffietti. Further down the field Siena and Barbieri started a fierce duel with their Maserati voiturettes. Nuvolari tried to shake off Farina by setting lap record after lap record but the Maserati driver followed closely, only losing 3 seconds to the leader during the first 10 laps. Comotti was already 20 seconds behind and would soon lose 3 laps in the pit with radiator problems, giving Soffietti the third position followed by Barbieri and Minozzi. Nuvolari continued at full speed and eventually Farina started to lose ground. Minozzi had to retire with a broken axle and Pintacuda managed to pass Soffietti for third position but by now Soffietti was already over two minutes behind Farina. The duel between Siena and Barbieri ended with the former retiring with plug problems and the latter crashing. By 50 laps Nuvolari held a 25 s lead from Farina with the rest over 3 minutes behind. Near the end Dusio managed to pass Cornaggia (Alfa Romeo) for sixth position. At the end Nuvolari took a dominant victory, 2 minutes from Farina, with the rest of the field several laps behind the top duo. DNS: 26 Tadini (Alfa Romeo *) Grid:
