The 1955 Dutch Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at Zandvoort on June 19, 1955. It was race 5 of 7 in the 1955 World Championship of Drivers. The 100-lap race was won by Mercedes driver Juan Manuel Fangio after he started from pole position. His teammate Stirling Moss finished second and Maserati driver Luigi Musso came in third.
This ended a 35-race streak of a Ferrari (powered car) ending on a podium since the 1950 French Grand Prix (excluding the Indianapolis 500).
