Pierre Ugnon
Death date: 26.Apr.1953
Circuit: Mille Miglia
Race: XX Mille Miglia
Vehicle brand/model: Jaguar C-type #XKC016
Note:
The Jaguar driven by Frenchmen Luc Descollanges and Pierre Ugnon crashed badly in Fossanova San Marco near Ferrara, Emilia Romagna region, Italy. The circumstances of the accident are unclear, because it happened during the night in a place where there were no spectators. Ugnon, who was driving, lost control after a level crossing of the Ferrara-Rimini railway. The car hit a curb and rolled throwing out its occupants. Ugnon and Descollanges were taken to the Arcispedale S. Anna hospital in Ferrara, where Ugnon died on Sunday early morning, 26 April 1953. Descollanges suffered severe injuries and remained unconscious for three days, but it is supposed he recovered.
Pierre Gilbert Ugnon was an important trader from Lyon, where he was also the chief of the local Automobile Club.
