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, which was transformed into a sports car race, Stirling Moss in his Frazer Nash Le Mans Replica Mk II and Marcel Becquart in a Jowett Jupiter R1 negotiate a right-hand bend. Competing in the Prix de Monte Carlo for cars under two litres, they speed past the legendary Chatham Bar. A crowd watches intently from behind a picket fence as the city's architecture climbs the steep incline toward the hazy mountains, with signs for the Hotel du Rivage and Hotel Central visible in the background.
