I also have a Brumm 1950 158 which carries no 25. I think this is a fictitious number as Small doesn't have a no 25 in any championship event for either 1950 or 51.

Consultation of Paul Sheldon's black book reveals that no Alfa 158 carried number 22, in the races for which Sheldon has the official race numbers. There are three races for which Sheldon has no race numbers - San Remo, Bari and Pescara. Googling reveals that at Pescara the Alfas were #34 and #40. This leaves San Remo and Bari. Please can one of the real experts tell us more.
At Bari Fangio carried 2 and Fagioli 16. The complete entry list, plus some DNAs not in Sheldon, is in a post somewhere on TNF by fines.
The numbers for Barcelona 1950 are around here somewhere too (was that you Felix? Or Michael again?)
Where did you find the Pescara numbers?

It also has photos from San Remo and Bari, but I can't make out the numbers - maybe someone with better eyesight can?
