Mike Hawthorn, (18) Vanwall VW I, Giuseppe "Nino" Farina, (42) Ferrari 625. With the shadow of the Gazomètre. Monaco Grand Prix 1955.

Mike Hawthorn, driving a dark green Vanwall VW I (#18), follows Giuseppe "Nino" Farina in the Ferrari 625 (#42) around a curve during the 1955 Monaco Grand Prix. Long shadows, notably that of the famous Gazomètre, stretch across the sunlit asphalt. Behind trackside barriers, spectators watch the race against the backdrop of the densely populated Monegasque hillside and harbor.
