Talk:1954 German Grand Prix

Maserati withdrawals
The Wharton withdrawal was completely unrelated to the Marimon incident, Wharton being a 'private' entry a la Moss, Bira, Schell etc. I've yet to find anything either way that states whether Wharton even turned up and and this stage of things how a car not being on the grid was defined (non-arrival, non-starter, non-qualifier, withdrew etc.) was basically up to race organisers' whim. The text certainly makes it sound like Wharton's absence from the race was a direct response to Marimon's accident; I'm open to correction but nothing I've found has suggested it and a source would be good.
