Maria Teresa de Filippis, (4) Porsche Special FII with Italian body ("Behra-Porsche"). Monaco Grand Prix 1959.
At the 1959 Monaco Grand Prix, Maria Teresa de Filippis pilots her Porsche Special FII, number 4. The open-wheel racing car, an Italian-bodied model known as a "Behra-Porsche," features distinctive eye-like markings on its nose cone. She navigates the circuit alongside the harbor, which is filled with moored boats. Across the water, the densely packed city rises up the hillside, where a large "BP ENERGOL" sign is prominently displayed.
