Stirling Moss, (30) Cooper-Climax T51 and Bruce Halford, (44) Lotus 16. Monaco Grand Prix 1959.

Bruce Halford, in his Lotus 16 (number 44), leads Stirling Moss in a Cooper-Climax T51 (number 30) during the 1959 Monaco Grand Prix. A low camera angle emphasizes the speed and proximity of the two dueling, open-wheel race cars as they navigate a section of the circuit lined with stacked hay bales. Behind this makeshift barrier, spectators are gathered to watch the action from behind a simple wooden fence.
