Alberto Ascari, (40), Ferrari 125, Louis Chiron, (48), Maserati 4CLT, Johnny Claes, (6) Talbot Lago T26. The bend at the Gazomètre. Monaco Grand Prix 1950.

At the Gazomètre bend during the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix, Alberto Ascari pilots his Ferrari 125 (40), with Louis Chiron in a Maserati 4CLT (48) and Johnny Claes in a Talbot Lago T26 (6) further ahead. Spectators, one in a fedora, watch from behind a low sandbag barrier. The seaside street circuit is lined by an ornate stone balustrade and lampposts, separating it from a crowded promenade. In the background, the densely built-up city rises steeply from the coast, its multi-story buildings interspersed with palm trees.
