René Cotton, (62) Delahaye 135S, Joaquín Palacio, (54) Pegaso Z-102, Eugenio Castellotti, (92) Ferrari 225S. Monaco Grand Prix 1952, transformed into a race for sports cars. This was a two day event, the Sunday for the up to 2 litres (Prix de Monte Carlo), the Monday for the bigger engines, (Monaco Grand Prix).

Joaquín Palacio's Pegaso Z-102, bearing the number 54, is positioned on the track during the 1952 Monaco Grand Prix, which was exceptionally run as a sports car race. To the left, another open-top race car is parked while spectators watch from grandstands fronted by hay bales. The dense, multi-layered cityscape of Monaco provides a dramatic backdrop, rising steeply from the circuit under a cloudy sky.
