Stirling Moss, (30) Cooper-Climax T51 and Bruce Halford, (44) Lotus 16. Monaco Grand Prix 1959.
Bruce Halford, driving a Lotus 16 (44), leads Stirling Moss in his Cooper-Climax T51 (30) during the 1959 Monaco Grand Prix. The open-wheel cars compete on the street circuit, where a low wall of hay bales serves as a rudimentary safety barrier, separating the track from the numerous spectators. The photograph’s low angle conveys a palpable sense of speed and intensity.
