Luigi Musso, (24) Ferrari-Lancia D50. Peter Collins, (26) Ferrari-Lancia D50. “Nano” da Silva Ramos, (6) Gordini T16. Horace H. Gould, (18) Maserati 250F. Monaco Grand Prix 1956.
Peter Collins in his Ferrari-Lancia D50 (No. 26) sweeps along the Monaco waterfront during the 1956 Grand Prix. He is closely followed by his teammate Luigi Musso (No. 24), “Nano” da Silva Ramos in a Gordini T16 (No. 6), and Horace H. Gould in a Maserati 250F (No. 18). Rudimentary trackside barriers of sandbags and a spiky guardrail separate the speeding cars from the harbor's moored boats. In the background, the densely packed buildings of Monte Carlo rise steeply from the water, creating an iconic and perilous racing scene.
