The 1952 Formula One season was the sixth season of FIA Formula One motor racing. It featured the 3rd World Championship of Drivers, which was contested over eight races between 18 May and 7 September 1952. The season also included several non-championship races and a separate East German Championship.
The Formula One championship rounds were run under Formula Two regulations out of fear for a small number of entrants.[1][2]
The World Drivers' Championship was won by Alberto Ascari driving for Scuderia Ferrari.[3] The Italian won six out of the seven races he entered.
Neither British driver nor team won a championship round. This would not happen again until 2023.
