Couper and Eastwood in their Bentley Mark VI, number 209, undertake the breaking and starting test at the 1951 Rallye Monte Carlo. The saloon, a Standard Steel model with special "Rallye-Trim," navigates the wet course marked by cones, passing under a large latticework arch. Spectators in mid-century attire watch from behind barriers as a stone fortress overlooks the scene from a distant hill. The team’s performance would contribute to their winning the Grand Prix d'Honneur.
