At the 1960 Monaco Grand Prix, driver-owner-constructor Lance Reventlow prepares for trial laps during the much-awaited European debut of his Scarab cars. Wearing a helmet and goggles, he sits in the cockpit of the single-seater, number 10, as a man in a striped shirt leans in close. The vehicle is notably fitted with seat belts, an uncommon safety feature for Grand Prix cars of that era.
