At the Monaco Grand Prix 1952, transformed into a race for sports cars, Stirling Moss (on right) works on his damaged Jaguar C-Type XKC 003 No. 78. (This was a two day event, a Saturday for the 2 liters, the Sunday for the bigger engines.)

At the 1952 Monaco Grand Prix, a race transformed for sports cars, Stirling Moss is intensely focused on repairing his damaged Jaguar C-Type. Bent over the exposed engine, he wields a hammer against a tool held to the car’s frame, his left hand gloved for the task. To his left, a man in glasses leans in, observing the urgent work with a look of concern. The propped-open hood reveals the vehicle's inner mechanics, with a striped checkpoint visible in the background of the sunlit pit area.
