1956 Italian GP . After Juan Manuel Fangio's Ferrari developed a steering problem, leaving the then-three time champion stuck in the pits, powerless to do anything as Stirling Moss's Maserati continued inexorably towards the victory that would give him the world title, Y, still mathematically in the title race himself, handed his car over to Fangio for no other reason than simple respect for his team mate. That, and the fact that Fangio's chances of overturning Moss in the fight for the title were much greater than his own.

But the fact remained that he did not need to be ordered out of the car by the team. This truly was a driver's decision, after the team's initial attempts to force their third driver Luigi Musso, out of the picture championship-wise, to hand his car to Fangio, had been met with a straightforward 'GTFO' from the Italian driver.
