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.

At the 1960 Monaco Grand Prix, Lance Reventlow (left, in an orange jumpsuit) speaks with Stirling Moss. Disappointed with his Scarab cars' slow performance, Reventlow asked Moss to drive one to determine if the issue was the car or the driver. Moss, wearing a white helmet and light-colored racing suit, posted a better time, but it was still not enough to qualify. As the two confer, a third man in a blue t-shirt stands nearby with a pensive expression against the backdrop of a Monaco street.
