Krull and Vidal pilot their Ford Taunus, number 428, through the braking and starting test of the 1953 Rallye Monte Carlo. The sedan navigates a course marked by striped cones, tasked with accelerating from a standing start before stopping in the shortest possible distance. A large crowd of spectators watches from behind a barrier, while an official stands near a large lattice archway that spans the course. A banner for the sponsor Ferodo is visible in the background.
