During the race it would be revealed that the victory of the Grand Prix would be to one of the three Alfa Romeos to which the most plausible one would be Farina due to him coming off the back bone of his second win of the season, allowing him to extend his championship lead with 18 points and the least one being Fangio due to his two non winnings. Some of the other cars that could win were: Ferrari, Alfa and the The Talbot-Lago's. In the practice the best time was Nino Farina on the Alfa Romeo with 4:37 and the lowest one was 5:45 from Toni Branca. Throughout the race, one of the clear winners would have been Farina and Fangio, to which they would both have a battle to see who could surpass them. However, Sommer was also in it, but his hopes of maintaining a podium were dashed on lap 20 when his engine blew. Another major point is that the Ascari and the Villoresi were not good during the race, the Ferrari's had let past Rosier's Talbot-Lago who like Sommer before him was attempting to run the race without stopping. Villoresi however continued to drop in pace and soon enough Ascari had taken fifth place from him. In the end, the race was won by Juan Manuel Fangio with a time of 2:47:26.0.
