Timeline
Alejandro de Tomaso (10 July 1928 in Buenos Aires – 21 May 2003 in Modena, Italy) was a racing driver and businessman from Argentina.
His name is sometimes seen in an Italianised form as Alessandro de Tomaso.
In 1955, de Tomaso was implicated in a plot to overthrow Argentine president Juan Perón, and fled to Italy.
He settled in Modena and married American heiress Isabelle Haskell.
He participated in two Formula One World Championship Grands Prix, debuting on 13 January 1957.
He scored no championship points.
In 1957, he started his career in the car industry as a Formula One racing driver for Scuderia Centro Sud, a privateer team based in Modena.
He drove in the first race of the Formula One World Championship of Drivers, the 1957 Argentine Grand Prix, driving a Ferrari 500, finishing 9th.
He did not drive again in the 1957 World Championship series, but two weeks later drove in the 1957 Buenos Aires Grand Prix, a Formula Libre race, in partnership with Maserati driver Luigi Piotti as privateers in a Maserati 250F, again finishing 9th.
He next competed in the 1957 BRDC International Trophy in September, for Automobili O.S.C.A. in an OSCA F2, but crashed in the preliminary heat.
He later founded the Italian sports car company De Tomaso Automobili in 1959.
Alejandro de Tomaso was born in Argentina, where his paternal grandfather had emigrated from Italy.
His family was politically prominent.
He returned to the Formula One Grand Prix circuit in 1959 for one race.
He drove for O.S.C.A. in a Cooper T43, in the 1959 United States Grand Prix, and retired when his brakes failed after 13 laps.
In 1959, he founded the car company De Tomaso Automobili Spa (later De Tomaso Modena).
During the 1960s and 1970s, under Alejandro's leadership, De Tomaso Modena acquired a number of Italian industrial holdings.
Starting in 1963, De Tomaso Modena also built high-performance sports cars, most of which used aluminium backbone chassis, which were to become the company's technical trademark.
De Tomaso sports cars included the Vallelunga (1963), Mangusta (1966), Pantera (1971), and Guarà (1993).
De Tomaso Automobili built prototypes and racing cars, including a Formula One car for Frank Williams' team in 1970.
De Tomaso Modena also produced luxury cars: the Deauville (1971), and Longchamp (1972).
In 1973, Ghia was sold to Ford (who would make much use of the name).
These included the Ghia and Vignale coachbuilding studios, the Benelli and Moto Guzzi motorcycle firms, the Innocenti car company (founded as an offshoot of the British Motor Corporation to build Minis in Italy), and in 1975, the celebrated sports car maker Maserati, which was rescued from bankruptcy with the assistance of the Italian government.
Over time, however, many of these holdings were sold off.
In 1993, Innocenti and Maserati were sold to Fiat (which closed the former).
In 1993, de Tomaso suffered a stroke.
He retired as head of De Tomaso Modena, succeeded by his son Santiago.
Alejandro remained active in design work.
He helped in the engineering of the sports version of the fourth generation Daihatsu Charade, introduced in 1994, which was known as the Daihatsu Charade De Tomaso.
Alejandro de Tomaso died in Italy in 2003.
