Jacques Laffitte, (26) Ligier J59. Monaco Grand Prix 1978.

Jacques Laffitte pilots his Gitanes-sponsored Ligier J59, number 26, through a turn at the 1978 Monaco Grand Prix. The low-angle shot captures the speed of the Formula 1 car as it races along the street circuit, with the city's architecture and the yacht-filled harbor forming a classic backdrop. To the right, behind a chain-link fence, a photographer focuses his large lens on the action as other spectators look on.
