On the wet asphalt of the Monaco Grand Prix circuit, lined with sandbag barriers, participants in the 1955 Rallye Monte Carlo prepare for the regularity speed test. Prominent is the Aston Martin DB2-4 of Faulkner and Silverthorne, bearing race number 118. Also taking part are the Jaguar Mk VIIs of the Appleyards (N° 90) and Vard/Jolley (N° 112), along with three Porsche 356s. In the hazy background, under an overcast sky, the city climbs the steep hillside above the harbor's masts.
