This caused some confusion when the official times were published at the end of practice, for having timed Fangio at 1 min 41.6 sec, several times when he was so obviously trying hard, he was given 1 min 42 sec officially.

With lap speeds rising steadily, this year's race had to be lengthened to 101 laps in order to extend the duration of the race to three hours, rather than choosing the alternative of 500 kilometres as laid down in F.I.A. Chapman led for nine laps, Salvadori having made a slow start, however, the Cooper was obviously very fast and handled extremely well by Salvadori, it came up from fourth place on the first lap to second place on the ninth, to take the lead on lap ten. Now he gets second cars given to him. Rain began to fall before the start of the 500-cc race and the downpour continued as the event progressed. The German, who stood in for…, Spa-Francorchamps has announced an €80m (£71m) redevelopment plan that will see run-offs extended, gravel traps installed and new grandstands built, as it aims to bring back international motorcycle racing. Fangio having to work very hard to go fast, and Collins also putting a lot of effort into his driving. When the flag fell, it was Hawthorn who shot out into the lead, closely followed by Brooks, who made a brilliant get-away from the third row, the two BRM cars out-accelerating all their rivals. Held on July 14, the winner was Juan Manuel Fangio in a Lancia-Ferrari.
This shows what we can do when we try and similar action will no doubt be taken if the provisions of the new Road Traffic Act penalise needlessly any one section of the motoring community, or motorists as a whole.

Yet again the Phoenix, which Colin Davis was to have driven, non-started. Then, after completing 23 laps, Hawthorn drew into his pits with all the grease leaking out of a transmission joint, and, not wishing to have it seize up, he withdrew, so the race now became in steady procession, with Moss the complete master out in front, followed by Salvadori, more than content to settle in second position, and Fangio some way behind, unable to make up any time at all. Held on July 14, the winner was Juan Manuel Fangio in a Lancia-Ferrari. Behra and Perdisa, and looking after Godia’s private car and that of Piotti for Villoresi to drive, while Maglioli was going to have another go at Formula 1, using the Scuderia Guastalla Maserati. The remainder of the 28 starters were in the order, Villoresi, Halford, Fairman, Gerard (Cooper-Bristol), Emery (Emeryson), Maglioli, Godia, Ramos, Rosier and Brabham. 101 laps, 475.76km (295.687 miles)
This is not the first one to break on a privately-owned Maserati, though it never happens on the factory team cars.
The Vanwall team were in complete disorder, which was disappointing after their Reims effort, and Schell was running again, but many laps behind and Trintignant had lost a lot of time at the pits with fuel-feed trouble. As always, the factory teams were trying all their drivers on all their cars and generally doing some shuffling about. Location Flockhart drove the 3-litre Ecurie Ecosse Jaguar which Titterington had driven well but sedately at Rouen, Baxter and Kyffin started in DB3S Aston Martins, and Moss had a works 300S Maserati. Already some were missing, for Flockhart had gone out on the second lap with engine trouble in the third BRM, and Brabham had stopped with the ex-Owen Group Maserati. The second lap saw another struggling crowd of cars behind the two BRMs and drivers were heading for corners three and four abreast, the wide spaces of the Silverstone track allowing them room to run side-by-side through the bends. Fairman had been deliberately driving steadily, hoping that everyone would blow-up, and Gould had been really enjoying himself. 8 Current page. Jean Behra Maserati

The 1956 British Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held on 14 July 1956 at Silverstone. Following the Grand Prix came the sports-car race, and as so many small sports cars had run in the F II event, this was confined to cars of over 1,500 cc, sub-divided into 1,500-2,000 cc, over 2,000 cc, 3,000 cc, and over 3,000-cc classes. In complete contrast the Lancia/Ferraris were anything but at ease.
At the end of the opening lap there were cheers for Hawthorn who was way ahead on his own, followed by Brooks, these two having left the rest of the field quite a way behind in only one lap.
Added to this were all the better-known independent drivers of Grand Prix cars, providing a Grand Prix field as good as could be desired. Strictly speaking, it should not have counted as an FIA Grande Epreuve. The 1956 Formula One season was the tenth season of FIA's Formula One motor racing. The opening laps of the BRM pair, Hawthorn and Brooks, were immense, and no matter if they did blow-up, they proved they can still motor fast. Russell had to retire the Lotus-Connaught with negative brakes, and Naylor had started with a very jury-rigged camshaft in the Lotus-Maserati and only completed half a lap. Practice 2 Curiously, 46 per cent thought the car was a Citroen 2 cv, which shows they have never examined this little car, 7 per cent claimed VW, and 10 per cent of incorrect replies applied to Citroan 4 cv (? Georges Roesch arrived as passenger in a Rolls-Royce Twenty — appropriately, as his first 14/45 Talbot was designed to better the performance of this car—and he and Mr Fox spent much time inspecting the assembled Talbots, which numbered 20, together with four Sunbeams and a Singer Senior saloon. This let Behra into third place, followed by Fairman in fourth place and Gould fifth, these three having profited by other drivers’ misfortunes. Rain fell for the latter part of the race, which Moss hardly seemed to notice, but which allowed Nurse to hold Titterington through Copse, before he crashed at Woodcote, breaking his ribs.
