Driver-owner-constructor Lance Reventlow prepares for trial laps at the 1960 Monaco Grand Prix, which marked the much-awaited European debut of his Scarab cars. Wearing a scuffed red helmet and goggles, he sits in the cockpit of the blue open-wheel racer, adorned with a bold white stripe. In the sun-drenched pit lane, a crew member leans over the car to speak with him as others look on. In the background, large ‘CINZANO’ banners are strung overhead, with the city’s hillside buildings visible beyond the track.
