Practice saw Jim Clark crash his Lotus heavily at Ste Devote. Monaco Grand Prix 1961.
Jim Clark’s Lotus, number 28, sits heavily damaged at the Ste Devote corner after a crash during practice for the 1961 Monaco Grand Prix. The front left of the open-wheel car is smashed, its wheel bent at an unnatural angle. A group of men, including a gendarme and mechanics in white overalls, gathers to inspect the vehicle. Set against the backdrop of Monaco's harbor, the scene captures the immediate aftermath of the incident under strong sunlight, which casts long shadows on the pavement.
