Biography
Eugène Martin (March 24, 1915 - October 12, 2006): A French racing driver born in Suresnes, France, Eugène Martin participated in two Formula One World Championship Grands Prix in 1950, driving for Talbot-Lago. Although he did not score any championship points, Martin was better known for his participation in several pre-war grands prix. He won the first Grand Prix Aix les Bains Circuit du Lac in 1949 with a Jicey-BMW developed by Jean Caillas. In the 1950s, he embarked on a brief career as an auto-maker, working at the Paris-based garage he owned with his father to produce the Martin-Spéciale.
The car was exhibited at the 1952 Paris Motor Show but never progressed to series production. He passed away in Aytré, France, at the age of 91.
