A monument to "Farina’s Curve" was unveiled at Brno’s former racing circuit on 26.09.2010.
The curve, part of the old Masaryk racing circuit Brno, was named after the Italian car racing driver Giuseppe "Nino" Farina soon after he crashed his car there in 1949, killing two spectators and injuring 12 others.
A year later, Farina went on to become the first ever champion of the newly established Formula One.
The circuit, built in 1930, stopped being used for races in 1987 when the new Masaryk Circuit was inaugurated, and is now used for regular traffic.
