Profile
A protégé of Juan Manuel Fangio, Onofre joined the works Maserati team in 1953 after showing great promise. He stood in for Fangio in some early-season non-championship races, and when Fangio left to join Mercedes he found himself effectively leading the team. He finished an excellent third in the British Grand Prix, ahead of Fangio, and seemed destined for great things, but he was killed instantly in a crash at the Nurburgring during practice for the German Grand Prix in 1954.
