On page 112 in 'Motorsport in Deutschland 1945-1955' I found the photo of Paul Pietsch titled "Beim Grossen Bergpreis am Schauinsland 1950 fuhr Paul Pietsch mit diesem Eineinhalbliter-Kompressor-Maserati Typ 4 CLT die schnellste Wagenzeit und siegte in der Formel 1"
The full(?) result in F1 class for this hillclimb were posted by uechtel in TNF some years ago and they are:
1. No. 162 Pietsch, Freiburg, Maserati 8.16,5 = 87,05 km/h (fastest time of all cars)
2. No. 160 Bonetto, Milan, Maserati 8.29,4 = 84,8 km/h
3. No. 163 Herbster, Lörrach, Bugatti 10.20,8 = 69,6 km/h
So, I have a question - Were there any other hillclimbs in Germany or in other European countries with specific class for Formula 1 cars?

[David McKinney]

The short answer is 'yes'

Not at many venues, and not every year, but in Germany and especially Switzerland there were separate F1 classes for many years

[Oleksij Hrushko]

OK, thanks! May be later anybody can provide list of hillclimbs with results?

[Geza Sury]

Jo Siffert used to compete regularly in Swiss hillclimbs with contemporary Formula One Cars in his native Switzerland. Usually, he won! You can find the complete list of his results in Ed Heuvink's new book about the life of Siffert.

I presume that means only Siffert's results?

In 1957-58-59, Maserati A6GCS and 250F cars were run in some Swiss and Italian(Trento-Bondone) Hillclimbs by Erwin Sommerhalder, Odoardo Govoni, and maybe Willy Daetwyler.

I'm not sure if there was a specific Formula One Class, but there was a picture in an "Automobile Year" around that period of Sommerhalder at a Swiss round of the European Mountain Championship (Though he wouldn't have been eligible for it)

Apologies to D. McKinney Esq. That should have been A6GCM or perhaps 1953-54, not A6GCS.

[David McKinney]

There were a surprising number of 250F (and A6GCM/250) European hillclimb appearances into the 1960s, though not all of course were in specific F1 classes

[Hugo Boecker]

Often Formula One cars raced in the Formula Libre class all European Hillclims after WW 2. There were some Maserati 4CLT running in such classes for example. There were to few F1 cars to create a own class, but mixed with sportcars they had a chance to win the race. Trintigant raced his BRM in 64 in some clibs, Porsche 718 were raced at the hills, Bonnier raced the Fergusson 4WD F1 at Ollon in 63, I think. Gurney's Eagle F1 from was raced by Scuderia Filipinetti at hillclims in 68 or so. Silvo Moser raced his Bellasi F1 more on hills than at circuits.

[Stephen W]

Lots of older F1 cars were used on the hills in Britain in the 1940s through to the 1970s. After that it was usually the engines that made it into hillclimb chassis.

[David McKinney]

...and for a while in the '50s there was a 'Formula 1' class at the so-called International Prescott

[uechtel]

In Germany and Switzerland, like I think in most other countries, it was already tradition to have Grand Prix cars at the start. Think of Silver Arrows at Großglockner or Klausen before the war. After the war this was continued, but of course without the big teams only a few privateers were left over with suitable machinery. Therefore the tendency was towards increasing sports and toiruing car fields, but it seems, that the organizers still tried to present spectaluar race cars as well.

In order to do this they had to look on what machinery was available and did not always look at the definition of the international Grand Prix forumla(s) but like Hugo said, often defined their own categories. So what may look like a "Formula 1" field may have indeed been a class for cars over 1.5 litres and one for cars below that capacity limit, no matter whether supercharged or not!

Lots of older F1 cars were used on the hills in Britain in the 1940s through to the 1970s. After that it was usually the engines that made it into hillclimb chassis.

Unraced f1 cars as well including Roy Lane in the March 2-4-0.

Nice to see there is interest in this topic. In fact in particular the Swiss racing scene of these years is a very interesting field to discover. For example I think one reason why the maintained their somehwat 'old-fashioned' system of categories may have been the very unique philosophy of the championship system. Not only, that it combined circuit races, hillclimbs, slaloms and rallyes into one single championship, in contrast to everything else I know it was also not based on race results in form of "ranks", but on relative times (that means, the winner of each class gets 100 points and a driver with 95% of the winner´s average gets 95 points, 80% of the average lead to 80 points etc.). To complicate this additionally there was a two-dimensional "penalty" system between the classes. Means, that the winner of an "upper" class gets only full 100 points if he is faster than any winner of the "lower" classes. This works two-dimensional because for example the 1.5 litre class is "superior" over the 1.1 litre class, but also the 1.5 litre race car class is regarded "superior" to the 1.5 litre sports car class.

So the Swiss ran into very big problems when the FIA set new capacity limits in 1954 for the touring cars, as it was now debatable whether the winner of the 1.6 l touring car class could "punish" the winner of the 1.5l spors car class! If the Swiss had adopted the official international formulas for the race cars this would have led to an immediate breakdown of the whol championship system.

A very remarkable event to me is also that 1947 "christmas hillclimb". Imagine today´s Formula 1 cars running on snowy or icy unpaved surface!

Besides that I think in that period also in Great Britain, France and Italy hillclimbs there were quite many hillclimbs either, but I have only very rudimentary knowledge about this. So I would apperciate very much if somebody would be able to deliver some dates and results for this, too.

Don't know about the Alfas, but I can offer the podium :
1 Collomb - Lotus 24
2 Fraissinet - Porsche 718 RS
3 Tavano - Ferrari 250 GTO
One could see wonderful cars on the hills in those years...

[Oleksij Hrushko]

Gianni Balzarini's Cooper-Maserati mentioned in post 25 (Klosters-Davos 1961) was in fact a Maserati-engined Coper Monaco Sports Car.

Does this need a bounce?

F1 cars continued to be used in hill climbs across Europe into the 1970s but they weren't eligible for points in any major national championship after the French banned them in 1973. So although you still see Tyrrell 007s and other competing later than that, they are rarely mentioned in the results unless they happened to set BTD.
