Alberto Ascari, (40), Ferrari 125, Louis Chiron, (48), Maserati 4CLT, Johnny Claes, (6) Talbot Lago T26. The bend at the Gazomètre. Monaco Grand Prix 1950.
At the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix, Alberto Ascari in his Ferrari 125 (No. 40) leads Louis Chiron's Maserati 4CLT and Johnny Claes' Talbot Lago T26 around the Gazomètre bend. Spectators watch from behind a low barrier as the open-wheel racers speed along the waterfront. The wide road is lined by an ornate stone balustrade and decorative lampposts, while the densely built hillside rises in the background, creating a stunning natural amphitheater for the event.
