HAVANA, UPl — Rebel kidnap
ers freed world champion auto
mobile racer Juan Manuel Fan
gio Tuesday after Cuba’s $10,000
Gran Premio race ended in tra
gedy and suspicions of foul play.
While Fangio, unshaken by his
29 - hour experience, talked with
reporters, authorities disputed
claims by other drivers that
someone poured oil on the course
of the race in which the 46-year
old, five-times world titleholder
was to have been the star at
traction.
A racer driven by Armando
Garcia Cifuentes of Cuba skit
tered into the crowd along Male
con Boulevard, killed 6 Cubans
and injuring 32. Cifuentes was
among those critically hurt.
Drivers said the track had been
slicked down with oil, presum
ably in a rebel attempt to wreck
the race.
Fangio told newsmen his ab
ductors made clear they had
grabbed him in hopes his disap
pearance would force cancellation
of the race and embarrass Presi
dent Fulgencio Batista’s regime.
The veteran driver showed no
bitterness towards his captors,
who seized him at gunpoint in
his Havana hotel on the eve of
the big race.
“If what the rebels did was in
a good cause, then I as an Argen
tinian accept it,” said Fangio,
whose country threw out dictator
Juan D. Peron in 1955. -
“I feel terrific,” he declared,
adding that the kidnaping had
been “another adventure in my
life.” He refused to identify the
kidnapers or to give any descrip
tion of them.
