Stirling Moss, (26) Frazer Nash Le Mans Replica Mk II and Marcel Becquart, Jowett Jupiter R1 in front of the legendary Chatham Bar. Monaco Grand Prix 1952, transformed into a race for sports cars. This was a two day event, the Sunday for the up to 2 litres (Prix de Monte Carlo), the Monday for the bigger engines, (Monaco Grand Prix).

During the 1952 Monaco Grand Prix, uniquely held as a race for sports cars, two open-topped racers navigate a turn on the street circuit. The scene unfolds in front of the legendary Chatham Bar and the Hotel du Rivage, with spectators lining the track and watching from balconies. This event featured drivers such as Stirling Moss in his Frazer Nash Le Mans Replica Mk II and Marcel Becquart in a Jowett Jupiter R1, competing against the backdrop of the city's steep, palm-lined hills.
