Alberto Ascari, in 1951, won his first World Championship F1 race in the Ferrari 375 on the Nürburgring circuit in Germany and added a win at Monza, Italy, finishing runner up in the championship to Juan Manuel Fangio. Though the car debuted in 1950 at Monza, a series of modifications through the 1951 season allowed Ferrari to finally put Alfa Romeo behind it in a Formula 1 race, with Jose Froilan Gonzalez' victory at Silverstone on July 14 becoming the constructor's first World Championship win. Ascari's wins at Nürburgring and Monza and strong finishes throughout the season cemented the company's position as a Formula 1 contender.
