In the pits at the 1978 Monaco Grand Prix, King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden meets with fellow Swede, driver Ronnie Peterson. The King, wearing a light-colored suit and sunglasses, stands with hands clasped as Peterson leans in his racing suit. The foreground is dominated by the rear of a black John Player Special Team Lotus car, its Ford-Cosworth V8 engine exposed for inspection. A nearby sign for the team lists Peterson as driver number 6, alongside Mario Andretti.
