motor racing. It featured the 1958 World Championship of Drivers which commenced on January 19, 1958, and ended on October 19 after eleven races. This was the first Formula One season in which a Manufacturers title was awarded, the International Cup for F1 Manufacturers being contested concurrently with the World Championship of Drivers.

Hawthorn finished second to win his first title, his greater consistency and reliability, along with crucial points for fastest laps, giving him the title by a single point. Vanwall won the inaugural Constructors Competition, mere consolation following the events in Morocco.
Hawthorn retired after winning the Championship, but died in a road accident in early 1959. His death compounded a tragic season for Formula One, with four drivers killed during the year.
