N° 117 Merrill / Matthews on Jaguar Mk VII, N° 198 Ingier / Schjolberg on Sunbeam Talbot 90 Mk III taking part in the regularity speed test on the circuit of the Monaco Grand Prix. Rallye Monte Carlo 1955.

The Jaguar Mk VII (N° 117) of Merrill and Matthews navigates a curve on the Monaco Grand Prix circuit during a regularity speed test for the 1955 Rallye Monte Carlo. The damp course is lined with sandbags and hay bales, with a ‘COINTREAU’ sign visible on an adjacent building. Further down the road, the Sunbeam Talbot 90 Mk III (N° 198) of Ingier and Schjolberg continues along the circuit, set against a backdrop of tiered hillside buildings and palm trees.
