  • Deadly Passions, Terrible Joys - An F1 Champion's Kidnapping Transformed Cuban History

    Deadly Passions, Terrible Joys - An F1 Champion's Kidnapping Transformed Cuban History
    Feb 6 2024
    With five World Driver Championships to his name, Juan Manuel Fangio is an icon of Formula 1 and motorsport as a whole — but in 1958, he also turned the tides of global politics. Fulgencio Batista's dictatorship had ravaged Cuba, but in 1958, the right-wing leader decided to stage a non-championship Formula 1 race to draw in the crowds. That plan was turned on its head when Fangio was kidnapped by a group of young revolutionaries — and it was that very kidnapping that helped lead to a full-on overhaul of the Cuban government.
