Jean Lucas, (58) Ferrari 225S. Monaco Grand Prix 1952, transformed into a race for sports cars. This was a two day event, the Sunday for the up to 2 litres (Prix de Monte Carlo), the Monday for the bigger engines, (Monaco Grand Prix).
Jean Lucas guides his Ferrari 225S, number 58, through a tight bend on the city circuit during the 1952 Monaco Grand Prix, which that year was run exclusively for sports cars. Seen from a high angle, the car leaves dark tire marks as it corners before crowds of spectators. Onlookers, one with a pointed newspaper hat, watch from behind railings as the race unfolds against the backdrop of Monaco's dense, hillside architecture, with the Renaissance Hotel visible in the distance.
