Rallye Monte Carlo 1951

Driver Milton maneuvers his Standard Vanguard, number 219, through the breaking and starting test at the 1951 Rallye Monte Carlo. On the wet course marked by cones, the car passes beneath a latticework arch as spectators watch from behind barriers. This challenge required competitors to accelerate for 200 metres from a standing start and then pull up in the shortest possible distance. In the background, a stone fortress is visible on a hill under an overcast sky.
