For 1954, the Touring classes were divided into three classes, over 3500 cc cuin on 1, between 3499 and 1900 cc cuin on 1, and under 1900 cc cuin on 1. The Sports classes were divided as before, over and under 1500 cc on 1. This was in order to accommodate the huge number of participants and the diverse breeds of cars within the race.http://www.classics.com/panam50.html 50th Anniversary of the Carrera Panamericana Classics.com 6 May 2000 9 July 2011 https://web.archive.org/web/20110708163346/http://www.classics.com/panam50.html 8 July 2011 live
Going into the race, Ferrari had already won the championship, but victory would ensure the marque would score maximum points for the season. Although no works entries were sent from Italy, there was a number of top quality entrants from both Mexico and the United States, hoping the get that victory on behalf of the Maranello concern.
Heading into the event, pressure was mounting on Mexican government, as the annual death toll from the event caused the country to be shown in a negative light. This wasn't the kind of attention the locals wanted. It had been abundantly clear the days were numbered for the Carrera Panamericana. 1954 would be the last time the event was run in this format, although it did return as a revival event in 1988.http://www.conceptcarz.com/articles/article.aspx?articleID=3546 1954 Carrera Panamericana: Courage to Go on

The race was held in eight stages over a total distance of 3070 km mi in. The race was won overall by Umberto Maglioli in a Ferrari 375 Plus. Maglioli finished the race in 17h 40' 26", his average speed of km/h mph 2 reflected the level of professionalism and technology that led the field: the inaugural 1950 event had been won in an average speed of 111 km/h mph- and the winner had taken 10 hours longer to complete the race distance. Phil Hill and Richie Ginther took second place in another Ferrari, over 24 minutes behind. The under-1500 sports car class winner Hans Herrmann finished third in his Porsche 550, closely followed by Jaroslav Juhan in his Porsche 550 Spyder, a further 87 minutes behind the Americans. Ray Crawford and Enrique Iglesias won the over-3500 stock car class in a Lincoln, the European stock car class was won by Consalvo Sanesi and Giuseppe Cagna in an Alfa Romeo, and the small U.S. stock car class was won by Tommy Drisdale and Walter Krause, Jr. in a Dodge.http://wsrp.ic.cz/wsc1954.html Archived copy 2014-12-07 https://web.archive.org/web/20141021083459/http://wsrp.ic.cz/wsc1954.html#6 2014-10-21 dead
A number of the sedans from the US failed to make it through the first stage of the race. The Austin-Healey 100S of Englishman, Lance Macklin struggled from ignition troubles and retired before completing the first stage. The Ferrari 375 Plus of Jack McAfee and Ford Robinson had an accident that provided the first fatality, with the death of Robinson. Sadly, there would be fatality, when Leopoldo Olvera Zabado died following an accident on the fifth stage.https://www.thetimes.com/article/the-road-to-thrills-and-spills-down-mexico-way-6tzhg8qlk8p The road to thrills and spills down Mexico way Briggs Gemmahttp://www.panamrace.com/overview.html Las Carreras de Mexico
The Californian pairing of Hill and Ginther continued to look impressive, making it through the second stage in their Allen Guiberson-entered Ferrari 375 MM without incident and remaining close to the front of the overall standing. However, another American was not going so well: Carroll Shelby suffered an accident while driving his Austin-Healey 100S. Frustrated with his team-mate, Ray Jackson-Moore's slow pace, Shelby supposedly removed Jackson-Moore’s seat and took off on his own.
As the event progressed, the list of cars remaining grew shorter and shorter. Many of the strong competitors were either out of the race, or behind the leading Ferraris of Maglioli and Hill/Ginther. The two Americans continued to chase hard to rein in solo-driving Maglioli. It was a 375 MM spyder chasing after a 375 Plus, with still a long way to go before anyone could celebrate. After 1900 miles there was very little time separating the two cars.
Despite feeling the pressure, Maglioli strengthened his grip and did not make any mistakes in the closing stages of the race, finishing nearly 25 minutes ahead of Hill and Ginther. http://www.racingsportscars.com/race/Carrera_Panamericana-1954-11-23.html Carrera Panamericana 1954 - Racing Sports Cars http://www.teamdan.com/archive/wsc/1954/54carrer.html 1954 Carrera Panamericana 2014-12-07 https://web.archive.org/web/20120225063313/http://www.teamdan.com/archive/wsc/1954/54carrer.html 2012-02-25 dead
Californian hot rodder Ak Miller became famous by finishing seventh overall, in his Oldsmobile-powered 1927 Ford.
Only months after its introduction in Mexico, the local distributor entered seven Volkswagen Beetles in order to prove their reliability and to make the car known. To maintain the given time bracket, they were required to keep an average speed of 50 mph, but had achieved 61 mph during the reconnaissance runs, so expectations to finish inside the time limits were high. As they were using standard Volkswagen engines, the cars were driving bumper-to-bumper in order reduce air resistance as available power was limited. By the time the event got to Ciudad Juárez, all seven Beetles were still within the given time limit, none was disqualified, with Alfonso de Hohenlohe and Alberto Álvarez coming home in 78th place overall (7th in class), albeit, the Beetles filled seven of the last eight finishing positions.http://www.rallybugs.com/54panam.htm Archived copy 2014-12-07 https://web.archive.org/web/20141207204249/http://www.rallybugs.com/54panam.htm 2014-12-07 dead
