Stirling Moss, (6) Mercedes-Benz W196, Jacky Pollet, (10) Gordini T16. Monaco Grand Prix 1955.

Stirling Moss, in his sleek Mercedes-Benz W196 (No. 6), and Jacky Pollet, in the more angular Gordini T16 (No. 10), compete at the 1955 Monaco Grand Prix. As the drivers navigate the sun-drenched circuit, spectators in suits watch from behind a makeshift barrier of sandbags. The scene unfolds against the panoramic backdrop of the Monte Carlo harbor, its bay filled with yachts and the city rising steeply on the hillside beyond. Advertising banners for BP and "Bret-Oil" line the track.
