Tony Brooks, (16) B.R.M.-Climax. Monaco Grand Prix 1961.
Tony Brooks smiles from the cockpit of his number 16 B.R.M.-Climax during the 1961 Monaco Grand Prix. Wearing a simple white helmet, he looks directly towards the viewer as a mechanic, identified by an "AUTOMOBILE CLUB DE MONACO" armband, leans over to speak with him. The dark vehicle features bullet-shaped side mirrors and a riveted windscreen. In the background, sponsor banners for ENERGOL and BP line the street circuit, filled with spectators and overlooked by the city's apartment buildings, capturing a moment of relaxed anticipation before the race.
