Moss, (78) Jaguar C, Manzon, (56) Simca Gordini T155. Monaco Grand Prix 1952, transformed into a race for sports cars. This was a two day event, the Sunday for the up to 2 litres (Prix de Monte Carlo), the Monday for the bigger engines, (Monaco Grand Prix).
Stirling Moss pilots his Jaguar C-Type (No. 78) through a right-hand curve on the Monaco street circuit, followed by Robert Manzon in a Simca Gordini T155 (No. 56). For the 1952 edition, the Grand Prix was uniquely transformed into a race for sports cars. Spectators line the track behind simple railings and on the balconies of nearby buildings, watching the action unfold beneath a large "VEEDOL" banner.
