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.

On the wet circuit of the Monaco Grand Prix, Merrill and Matthews pilot their Jaguar Mk VII (N° 117) through a corner during a regularity speed test for the 1955 Rallye Monte Carlo. The saloon leans into the turn, bordered by sandbags, while spectators watch from the sidelines. Beyond the harbor filled with boats, Monaco's densely populated hillside rises steeply. Further down the track, the Sunbeam Talbot 90 Mk III (N° 198) of Ingier and Schjolberg is visible.
