Jacky Pollet, (10) Gordini T16, Stirling Moss, (6) Mercedes-Benz W196. Monaco Grand Prix 1955.

During the 1955 Monaco Grand Prix, Jacky Pollet’s No. 10 Gordini T16 is captured in a motion blur as it speeds along the paved road. Further up the track, Stirling Moss, visible in the cockpit of his No. 6 Mercedes-Benz W196, navigates a corner next to a barrier of sandbags. Spectators in mid-century attire watch from behind an ornate fence, while in the background, Monaco's bustling harbor is filled with numerous yachts and sailboats. Advertising banners, including one for "Bret-Oil," line the edge of the circuit.
