Wolfgang Graf Alexander Berghe von Trips [[1]] (born May 4, 1928 in Kerpen-Horrem, Germany- died September 10, 1961) was a Formula One driver. He participated in 29 Grands Prix, debuting on September 2, 1956. He won two races, secured one pole position, achieved six podia, and scored a total of 56 championship points.
After the Second World War, von Trips inspired millions of Germans. The 10 September 1961 would have been the culmination of his career, as a third place would have been sufficient to secure the Formula One World Drivers Championship that year. At the Italian Grand Prix at Monza, his Ferrari collided with Jim Clark's Lotus. His car became airborne and crashed into a side barrier, fatally throwing von Trips from the car, and killing fourteen spectators.
Von Trips was on course to become the first German to win the championship. Instead, he helped lay the foundation for another German to become the most successful Formula One driver ever. In the year of his accident, von Trips established a go-kart race track in Kerpen, Germany. The track was later leased by Rolf Schumacher, whose son Michael made his first laps there.
Wolfgang von Trips would not have been spared from his fate. On the same day, he was scheduled to fly with an ex-classmate to the USA. The plane crashed over Scotland.
