I have found some information about "Pierre Pagnibon" on Martin Krejci's excellent pages www.wsrp.wz.cz/nonchamp.html. What was his Christian name, date of birth and death etc?

In connection with this driver I'm also interested in some of the races I know he participated in. I wonder if someone has got some additional results from the following races "Pagnibon" took part in? As a privateer in Talbot and Ferrari cars he must have had a good chance at some realy good results in all the small races in France at this time. I would be very grateful for any help.

Bressuire, unknown date 1951
1st "Pagnibon", Talbot
2nd Marchand, Ferrari 212 Export

Agen, unknown date 1951

He raced under the nom de course of Pagnibon as he had already made his family name famous during WWII by being a notorious collaborationist... He was not a popular figure among the French racing scene of the days to say the least...
