dbpprop:abstract
  • Peter John Collins (6 November 1931 – 3 August 1958) was a Formula One driver from England. He participated in 35 World Championship Grands Prix, debuting on 18 May 1952. He won 3 races, achieved 9 podiums, and scored a total of 47 championship points. In common with many British drivers of the immediate post-war period, Collins cut his racing teeth in the frenetic 500cc category (adopted as Formula 3 at the end of 1950), when his parents bought him a Cooper 500 from the fledgling Cooper Car Company. These small machines, powered by motorcycle engines, were also the proving ground of many of Collins' F1 contemporaries, notably including Stirling Moss. He got his F1 break in 1952, picking up a drive for the lowly HWM team, replacing Moss. Results did not come the team's way, and Collins left after the 1953 season. Following spells driving for Vanwall and Maserati, and one brief outing in a BRM which ended with a crash in qualifying, Collins was signed to the Ferrari team for the 1956 F1 season. Finally things looked to be going Collins' way. The 1956 season proved to be a turning point, with a second place - behind Moss - at Monaco, and wins at the Belgian and French Grands Prix. Indeed, Collins was on the verge of becoming Britain's first F1 World Champion when he handed his Lancia-Ferrari D50 over to team leader Juan Manuel Fangio after the latter suffered a steering-arm failure toward the end of the Italian Grand Prix at Monza. Collins eventually finished second, but the advantage handed to Moss, and the extra points gained by Fangio's finish, demoted Collins to third in the championship. This selfless, team-orientated action gained Collins immense respect among the Italian racing tifosi, and the gratitude and admiration of Enzo Ferrari himself, a man notoriously hard to please. In his double-biography of Collins and Mike Hawthorn, "Mon Ami Mate", Chris Nixon describes the ensuing relationship between the English driver and his Italian boss as being almost like father and son from this point on. In 1957, Collins was joined at Ferrari by Mike Hawthorn. The two became very close friends, often getting into much off-track trouble together, and took to calling each other "mon ami mate" after a newspaper cartoon strip. 1957 also saw Collins marry American Louise King. However, despite a third-placed finish at the Nurburgring, Ferrari were distinctly under-par for much of the season as the 801 model (an evolution of the 1954 Lancia D50) was by then becoming obsolete. 1958 saw the introduction of the new Ferrari Dino 246, a far improved car, and once again results began to go the way of Scuderia Ferrari. Collins scored his third and final career victory at the British Grand Prix, as well as taking a third place at Monaco. Hawthorn also won in France, but the two were chasing Tony Brooks' Vanwall at the German Grand Prix when disaster struck. Pushing hard to keep pace, Collins lost control of his car and, in Hawthorn's direct sight, spun off the track, disappearing over a bank. During the ensuing accident Collins was thrown clear of the Ferrari, hit a tree and sustained critical injuries to his head. Despite being airlifted to hospital, Collins died later that afternoon.

  • Peter John Collins oli brittiläinen kilpa-autoilija ja Formula 1 -kuljettaja. Collins aloitti F1-uransa 1952, mutta kilpailukyvyttömällä kalustolla ilman menestystä. Hän alkoi voittaa kisoja päästyään Ferrarin rattiin kaudella 1956. Hän saavutti kaikkiaan kolme GP-voittoa ja yhdeksän muuta palkintosijaa sekä 47 MM-pistettä. Lähimpänä maailmanmestaruutta Collins oli kaudella 1956. Viimeisessä, ratkaisevassa Italian GP:ssä Collinsin tallitoverin Juan Manuel Fangion Ferrari hajosi jo kisan alkuvaiheessa. Collins luovutti oman autonsa Fangion käyttöön, mikä 1950-luvun sääntöjen mukaan oli mahdollista. Fangio ajoi Stirling Mossin jälkeen toiseksi, ja Fangio sekä Collins saivat kumpikin puolet pisteistä, jotka jaettiin kakkossijasta. Näiden pisteiden turvin Fangio nousi maailmanmestariksi täpärästi ohi Mossin. Jos Collins ei olisi antanut autoaan Fangiolle, hänestä olisi tullut maailmanmestari yhden pisteen marginaalilla, nyt hän jäi kolmanneksi. Hänestä olisi tullut siihen aikaan nuorin maailmanmestari vain 24-vuotiaana.

  • Collins è passato alla storia come il pilota che, nell'ultima gara del campionato, ha ceduto la sua vettura all'avversario diretto per la vittoria del mondiale. Accadde nel 1956: nell'ultimo Gp, a Monza, il capitano della Lancia-Ferrari Juan Manuel Fangio fu costretto a ritirarsi per un problema meccanico, consegnando la leadership della corsa al rivale della Maserati Stirling Moss. Collins, compagno di squadra di Fangio, aveva anch'egli la chance di vincere il titolo in caso di successo a Monza, ma scelse di fermarsi ai box e cedere la vettura al suo caposquadra (all'epoca il regolamento lo consentiva), il quale concluse la gara brianzola al secondo posto conquistando così il suo quarto titolo iridato. Questo enorme gesto di sportività, del quale Fangio ne fu profondamente onorato, venne minimizzato dal pilota inglese, che affermò di avere ancora molte chances di vincere un titolo iridato essendo vent'anni più giovane del campione argentino che invece, essendo prossimo alla cinquantina avrebbe avuto poche possibilità di vincerne altri. Peter Collins morì due anni dopo senza mai aver conquistato un titolo mondiale in seguito ad un incidente sul circuito del Nurburgring: la sua vettura, una ferrari 246 F1, uscì di strada, capottandosi più volte, ed egli finì contro un albero, fratturandosi il cranio. Spirò durante il tragitto verso l'ospedale di Bonn. Ironicamente, Juan Manuel Fangio vincerà un altro titolo mondiale, il quinto, nel 1957.
