In 1956, French racing driver Robert Manzon achieved a significant victory at the Pescara Grand Prix (Circuito di Pescara) driving a Gordini T15S.
Here are the key details regarding this event:
The Race: The race took place on August 19, 1956, and covered 358.106 kilometers (approximately 222 miles).
The Performance: Manzon drove his 2.0-liter Gordini to victory with a time of 2 hours, 41 minutes, and 0.27 seconds, averaging 133.389 km/h.
Significance: This win was notable as it was the last victory for a sports Gordini.
Podium: Manzon finished ahead of Piero Taruffi (Maserati 200S) and G. Munaron.
Context: 1956 was Manzon's final season in racing, and this victory in Pescara was one of his major achievements that year, alongside winning the Naples GP.
The Pescara circuit is famous for being a very long (over 25km) and dangerous Italian track that hosted a Formula One World Championship race in 1957, though the 1956 race was a sports car event.
