1952 Season Report

Alberto Ascari won the 1952 Formula 1 World Drivers' Championship driving for Ferrari, finishing on 36 points, 12 clear of Nino Farina. Ascari won 6 races that season.

No Constructors' Championship was awarded in 1952 — the teams' title was not introduced until 1958, so the drivers' standings were the season's only championship.

3 different drivers won a Grand Prix, and 22 drivers scored championship points.

Championships in this era were decided on a "best results" basis — drivers counted only their highest-scoring finishes towards the title, so season totals can differ from the sum of every race result. Dropped scores were abolished from 1991.
