Fangio's exhumation put on hold due to "second son" claim - Motorsport.com
A judge has suspended the exhumation of five-time F1 World Champion Juan Manuel Fangio’s body until a similar case, from another man claiming to be his son, is completed. Last Friday a court in Mar del Plata – the city in Argentina nearest to Balcarce, the town where Fangio was born – ruled to exhume the body of the motorsport legend in order to determinate if he was the father of a man named Oscar Cesar Espinoza. However, the exhumation – due to take place on August 7 – has been suspended by a different court located in La Plata, capital city of Buenos Aires province. 'Stay Order' in place According to the ruling, until the case in La Plata – which has a 'Stay Order' over Fangio’s body – is finished the exhumation will not be able to take place.
