reporter: "how can you bear getting into a race car when you know you might be killed in it?"

The youngster was complaining that the team was giving better car to Fangio than to him, the team thought that they were actually giving him more service than Fangio. Fangio was already on the pole some 3/4 of a second faster than any rival car.
Fangio took the truculent car out (completely againgst team orders) and proceeded to drop his pole position by 0.5 seconds on the second lap.

Fangio: More gas....less brakes.
