Jo Bonnier, (2) Porsche F2-718, Carel Godin Beaufort, (44) Porsche F2-718. Monaco Grand Prix 1962. The leather peak and visor were standard wet weather wear for the era, and note that his Bell helmet (recognizable by its almost perfectly round symmetry as compared to the more upright Herbert Johnson hat) has two ventilation holes drilled in it.

Jo Bonnier sits in the cockpit of his number 2 Porsche F2-718 during the 1962 Monaco Grand Prix. The ground is wet and reflective, and water droplets cover the car's dark, glossy body. Bonnier is equipped for the rain in a dark sweater and a light-colored Bell helmet, identifiable by its two ventilation holes and fitted with a leather visor. In the background, the number 44 Porsche of Carel Godin Beaufort is parked at an angle on the damp racetrack.
