Commemorating Maserati’s debut in Formula 1 in 1954 is the Ghibli and Levante F Tributo Special Edition. Maserati started racing 95 years ago. On April 21, 1926, the Tipo 26 was born, the first racing car to carry the Trident logo. Driven by Alfieri Maserati, it won the 1,500 CC Targa Florio that year.
But it wasn’t until January 17, 1954, that Maserati debuted on the F1 world stage with legendary Argentinian racing driver Juan Manuel Fangio behind the wheel. Fangio eventually won the 1957 World Championship of Drivers with a Maserati 250F. Celebrating Fangio’s F1 win is the Ghibli and Levante F Tributo Special Edition. And yes, the F is for Fangio.
