Marimon's Maserati left the Nürburgring race course at the Wehrseifen curve after he lost control attempting to improve his qualifying time. The Nürburgring, known as simply " The Ring " by enthusiasts is a Motorsport Race track in Nürburg, Germany. He died at the bottom of a steep and treacherous incline. He was going fast on a downgrade but failed to negotiate a sharp turn at the bottom. Marimon impacted a ditch, his Maserati shearing off a tree and rolling over a number of times. He was pinned underneath the car as it came to rest on its top with the wheels spinning in the air. Marimon was given the last rites by a Catholic priest before dying a few minutes after rescue workers freed him. Catholic is an Adjective derived from the Greek adjective '' / 'katholikos' meaning "whole" or "complete". It was thought that his braking unit failed.
Marimon's death trimmed the Maserati team to four drivers. His practice times had not been satisfactory enough for him to make the top 5 for the 1954 German Grand Prix. His best time was 21. 3 seconds behind the record time of 9:50. 1 set by Juan Manuel Fangio.
