Alberto Ascari, (40) Ferrari 125, Giuseppe "Nino" Farina, (32) Alfa Romeo 158 Alfetta, Toulo de Graffenried, (52) Maserati 4CLT, Franco Rol, (44) Maserati 4CLT. Monaco Grand Prix 1950.
Alberto Ascari pilots his Ferrari 125 (40) around a tight corner on the sun-drenched street circuit during the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix. Further up the track, several cars are stalled, including the Alfa Romeo 158 Alfetta (32) of Giuseppe "Nino" Farina. Crowds fill every vantage point, from the stone balustrades to the balconies of grand buildings like the Beau-Rivage hotel, taking in the spectacle of mid-century motor racing.
