The Scarabs were disappointingly slow and to find out if it was the driver or the car, Reventlow (left) let Stirling Moss try one. He did a better time but it would not have been enough to qualify. Monaco Grand Prix 1960.
During the 1960 Monaco Grand Prix, Scarab team owner Lance Reventlow leans in to confer with Stirling Moss. Reventlow had asked Moss to test one of his disappointingly slow cars to determine if the fault lay with the machine or the driver. Moss, in his Dunlop racing suit and helmet, listens intently while holding his goggles. Although he posted a better time than the team's usual drivers, it was still not enough to qualify, confirming the car's lack of pace on the demanding street circuit.
