Juan Manuel Fangio, (20) Ferrari-Lancia D50. Jean Behra, (30) Maserati 250F. Maurice Trintignant, (14) Vanwall VW2. Peter Collins, (26) Ferrari-Lancia D50, “Nano” da Silva Ramos, (6) Gordini T16. Elie Bayol, (4) Gordini T32. Monaco Grand Prix 1956.

From an elevated viewpoint overlooking the 1956 Monaco Grand Prix, Jean Behra in his Maserati 250F (#30) leads Juan Manuel Fangio's Ferrari-Lancia D50 (#20). Further down the street circuit, a cluster of racers including Peter Collins and Maurice Trintignant navigates a corner. Spectators watch from under pine trees, separated from the track by jagged sandbag barriers. Beyond the action, the harbor is filled with yachts, and the city's buildings are densely packed on the hillside that rises from the water.
