 hurtled off the course on the 10th lap of the 50 lap race. Running wide at the tricky Muizone Curve while chasing the leader, Mike Hawthorn, Musso's Ferrari struck a ditch and somersaulted. His fellow Ferrari driver and rival Mike Hawthorn won the race. Musso was airlifted to hospital with critical head injuries; he died later that day.

Rivalry with Hawthorn and Collins

Many years after Musso's death, Fiamma Breschi, Musso's girlfriend at the time of his death, revealed the nature of Musso's rivalry with fellow team Ferrari divers Mike Hawthorn and Collins in a television documentary, The Secret Life of Enzo Ferrari. Breschi recalled that the antagonism between the Musso and the two English drivers, Mike Hawthorn

, encouraged all three to take more risks:

"The Englishmen (Hawthorn and Collins) had an agreement," she says. "Whichever of them won, they would share the winnings equally. It was the two of them against Luigi, who was not part of the agreement. Strength comes in numbers, and they were united against him. This antagonism was actually favourable rather than damaging to Ferrari. The faster the drivers went, the more likely it was that a Ferrari would win." Breschi related that Musso was in debt at the time of his death, and the money for winning the French Grand Prix (traditionally the largest monetary prize of the season), was all-important to him. Running wide-open on a flat-out curve, his car somersaulted into a field, mortally wounding the racer. Breschi and Ferrari team were informed later by the team manager that Musso had died in hospital. By the end of that year Collins and Hawthorn were also dead, and Breschi could not suppress a feeling of release. "I had hated them both," she said, "first because I was aware of certain facts that were not right, and also because when I came out of the hospital and went back to the hotel, I found them in the square outside the hotel, laughing and playing a game of football with an empty beer-can. So when they died, too, it was liberating for me. Otherwise I would have had unpleasant feelings towards them for ever. This way I could find a sense of peace."

Racing achievements

During his F1 career, Luigi Musso won one World Championship Grand Prix, achieved 7 podiums, and scored a total of 44 championship points.
