Mike Hawthorn, (18) Vanwall VW I, Harry Schell, (46) Ferrari 625. With the shadow of the Gazomètre. Monaco Grand Prix 1955.
At the 1955 Monaco Grand Prix, Mike Hawthorn pilots his British racing green Vanwall VW I (18) ahead of Harry Schell in the red Ferrari 625 (46). The two navigate a sunlit turn on the street circuit, with the city’s classic architecture and harbor serving as a backdrop. As spectators watch from behind a hedge lined with a BP banner, the distinct shadow of the Gazomètre stretches across the asphalt.
