Luigi Musso was born on July 28, 1924, in Rome, Italy. An Italian Formula One driver, Musso was known for his competitive spirit and skill, particularly during his time with Ferrari in the 1950s. He achieved three podium finishes and won the 1956 Argentine Grand Prix. Tragically, Musso's career was cut short when he lost his life in a high-speed crash while competing in the 1958 French Grand Prix at Reims, France, on July 6, 1958, at the age of 33.
