An injured Tony Brooks, his face covered in bandages, is supported by fellow British drivers Mike Hawthorn (left) and Stirling Moss (right). The trio is seen after a multi-car pile-up at the Chicane during the Monaco Grand Prix on May 19, 1957. While the crash eliminated both Hawthorn, dressed in a blazer and bow tie, and Moss, still in his racing suit, Brooks would remarkably pilot his damaged Vanwall to a second-place finish.
