After the race: The cars of Mike Hawthorn, (28) Ferrari-Lancia D50 and Peter Collins, (26) Ferrari 801 in the barriers while Wolfgang von Trips, (24) Ferrari 80I, passes. The incident happend in lap 4 of the 1957 Monaco Grand Prix after leader Stirling Moss "lost" his Vanwall in the chicane. Peter Collins swerved to avoid Moss but hit the wall while Mike Hawthorn rammed Tony Brooks who braked hard to avoid the cars in front of him.

The aftermath of a dramatic incident during the 1957 Monaco Grand Prix. On the harbor quay, spectators gather behind a log barrier to inspect the damaged single-seaters of Mike Hawthorn and Peter Collins. Hawthorn's Ferrari-Lancia D50 (no. 28) rests on canvas bags, while the streamlined, riveted tail of Collins's Ferrari 801 is seen nearby. Both drivers were forced to retire after a multi-car pile-up on lap four, a candid scene capturing the raw nature of motorsport with the classic architecture of Monaco rising across the water.
