Louis Rosier

Louis Rosier (born 5 November 1905 in Chapdes-Beaufort, died 29 October 1956 in Neuilly-sur-Seine) was a French racing driver who competed in Formula 1 from 1950 to his death in 1956. His consistency gave him fourth position in the 1950 World Championship, but he only scored 5 points for the rest of his career, which sadly ended in late 1956 during an accident at Montlhéry on October 7th. Rosier died 3 weeks later in hospital. He was 50 years old.
