1925 French Grand Prix, Montlhéry - Antonio Ascari (Alfa-Romeo P2)

Unfortunately, 36-year-old Ascari was killed while leading the 1925 French Grand Prix in an Alfa Romeo P2 at the Autodrome de Montlhéry south of Paris. He left behind a seven-year-old son, Alberto who would become one of the greats of Formula 1 racing and who would also die behind the wheel at age 36 and on the 26th of a different month, four days after a remarkable escape.
