The crash has beenattributed to a combination of high speed bad weather andcompetitiveness.Rob Walker was ahead of him and perhaps Mike Hawthorn pushed his car too hard in an effort to pass Walker's Mercedes 300SL. Hawthorn's Jaguar (nicknamed "the Merceater") was heavily modified for high power and speed. "No Kraut car could overtake or out-accelerate ....."
