In 1950, the track was turned into a set, with <strong>Amedeo Nazzari<\/strong> together with the driver of the moment, J<strong>uan Manuel Fangio<\/strong>. Nazzari raced in fiction, for the film <em>Last Meeting<\/em>, a popular production by <strong>Dino De Laurentiis<\/strong> and<strong> Carlo Ponti<\/strong>, scripted by the writer Alberto Moravia, among others. Fangio himself raced for real, with the Alfa 159 making its debut at the Italian Grand Prix that year. Proudly emblazoned on his overalls were the \u201cAlfa Romeo\u201d and \u201cPirelli\u201d logos. In 1951 the house organ <em>Fatti e Notizie <\/em>wrote about \u201cActors and Drivers\u201d and even then, the Argentine champion may have sensed that he would become the most filmed driver in history. Fifteen years and five Formula 1 World Championships after <em>Last Meeting<\/em>, Juan Manuel Fangio appears aboard a red spider back on the Parabolica banking at Monza, in front of the camera.

From cinema to television, and then back to cinema: A biopic, <em>Fangio: A Life at 300 An Hour<\/em>, came out in 1981. The director was Hugh Hudson, who just a few years earlier, in 1966, had directed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fondazionepirelli.org\/archivio-storico\/audiovisivi\/detail\/IT-PIRELLI-AV0001-000080\/la-lepre-e-tartaruga.html?jsonVal=%7b%22jsonVal%22:%7b%22query%22:%22La%20lepre%20e%20la%20tartaruga%22,%22startDate%22:%22%22,%22endDate%22:%22%22,%22fieldDate%22:%22dataNormal%22,%22_perPage%22:20%7d%7d&amp;attachmentMisc=undefined&amp;lang=it\"><em>The Tortoise and the Hare<\/em><\/a>, a road movie for Pirelli that advertised the Cinturato tyre that Fangio had called \u201c<em>extraordinario<\/em>\u201d.
