Jean Behra, (34) Maserati 250F, André Simon, (4) Mercedes-Benz W196. With the shadow of the gazomètre. Monaco Grand Prix 1955.
At the 1955 Monaco Grand Prix, André Simon in his silver Mercedes-Benz W196 (No. 4) navigates a sun-drenched curve, followed closely on the inside by Jean Behra in a vibrant magenta Maserati 250F (No. 34). The large shadow of the nearby gazomètre falls across the street circuit as spectators look on from behind makeshift barriers of sandbags and hay bales.
