Dorino Serafini

Teodoro "Dorino" Serafini was an Italian racing driver and motorcycle road racer, born on 22 July 1909 and died on 5 July 2000. A native of Pesaro, he started racing motorcycles in 1928 on a Benelli 175cc and won the 1939 500cc European Championship on a Gilera, with victories in the German, Swedish and Ulster Grands Prix. He switched to single-seater cars in 1947, finished second in the 1950 Mille Miglia and was second for Ferrari in his only Formula One World Championship race, the 1950 Italian Grand Prix, which he shared with Alberto Ascari. He remains the only Formula One driver to have scored a podium in every World Championship Grand Prix he entered. Serious injuries in the 1951 Mille Miglia ended his full-time racing.
