Franco Bordoni, (34) Osca MT4 1350. Monaco Grand Prix 1952, transformed into a race for sports cars. This was a two day event, the Sunday for the up to 2 litres (Prix de Monte Carlo), the Monday for the bigger engines, (Monaco Grand Prix).
Franco Bordoni pilots his number 34 Osca MT4 1350 around a corner on the Monaco street circuit in 1952. That year, the Grand Prix was transformed into a race for sports cars, and Bordoni competed in the Prix de Monte Carlo for cars with engines up to two litres. The track is lined with hay bales and sandbags for safety, while spectators watch from the balconies of the city’s grand, ornate buildings, set amongst tall palm trees.
