Film from Shell, unfortunately commentary is in Italian, but a treat for the car spotters.
Part 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hv1t6S-ZNI

Part 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yItvnOKlWkc&list=TLPQMDMwNzIwMjFH4HVVkEf5Ug&index=2

Parnell, Moss and Fangio, plus many others whose names I didn't catch, racing.
Hawthorn appears to be just looking on though he did race, DNF

Fabulous! Filmed by Nick Mason's dad, Bill Mason.

I think that's Hawthorn at 14.25 in the first link.
