Schwartz and Schwartz in their Salmson S4E Cabriolet, number 204, undertake the braking and starting test during the 1951 Monte Carlo Rally. On a wet, paved course marked by cones, the car must accelerate for 200 metres from a standing start before braking in the shortest possible distance. From behind advertising-lined barriers, spectators in period attire, some with umbrellas, observe the trial. The rain-slicked surface reflects the dark convertible and the damp atmosphere of the event.
