Robert Manzon, (14) winner of the race, Gordini T15S. 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).
Robert Manzon, in his Gordini T15S, negotiates a bend during the 1952 Monaco Grand Prix, an event uniquely transformed into a sports car race that year. Crowds of spectators line the pavement and watch from the ornate iron balconies of the city's grand buildings. Manzon would become the winner of the Prix de Monte Carlo for cars under two litres. A temporary official's booth, fronted by a large "DUNLOP" banner and protective sandbags, borders the street circuit.
