Juan Manuel Fangio, (34) Alfa Romeo 158 Alfetta, winner of the Monaco Grand Prix 1950.

From a high angle, Juan Manuel Fangio pilots his number 34 Alfa Romeo 158 Alfetta during the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix, a race he would go on to win. Wearing a light-colored helmet and goggles, he navigates the wide, paved road that runs alongside the calm water. A simple metal railing separates the track from the harbor, while a makeshift safety barrier of wooden planks and sandbags lines the tall stone wall on the other side. Dark tire marks from previous laps are visible on the large paving stones of the circuit.
