N° 225 Schock / Moll on Mercedes-Benz 220 taking part in the regularity speed test on the circuit of the Monaco Grand Prix. Rallye Monte Carlo 1955.

The Mercedes-Benz 220 driven by Schock and Moll, bearing race number 225, sits partially submerged in the water after leaving the road during the regularity speed test on the Monaco Grand Prix circuit. Onlookers in mid-century attire gather behind protective hay bales on the quay to watch the incident, which occurred during the 1955 Rallye Monte Carlo. Across the harbor, the densely populated hillside city provides a scenic backdrop to the dramatic scene.
