Formula One, or F1, is the highest class of auto racing defined by the motor sport's world governing body also known as Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA). Formula refers to the set of rules which all participants and cars must meet. The F1 world championship season is made up of a series of races, popularly known as Grands Prix. Races are usually conducted on purpose-built circuits and in some instances, on closed city streets. Throughout the season, all results are combined to determine the World Champion driver and constructor.

Sept. 11, 1955: Juan Manuel Fangio wins the race in Monza for Mercedes. It was one of the 24 wins he had in his nine-year career. At this same race, Gordini team manager Jean Lucas made his F1 racing debut--and finale--as a substitute to regular driver Robert Manzon when he was unable to compete. Lucas ended the race with an engine failure and rapped up his F1 career scoreless in the championship scoreboard.
