Eugenio Castellotti, (22) Ferrari-Lancia D50. Harry Schell, (16) Vanwall VW2. Juan Manuel Fangio, (20) Ferrari-Lancia D50. Jean Behra, (30) Maserati 250F, Luigi Musso, (24) Ferrari-Lancia D50, Maurice Trintignant, (14) Vanwall VW2. Peter Collins, (26) Ferrari-Lancia D50. Monaco Grand Prix 1956.

At the 1956 Monaco Grand Prix, a pack of open-cockpit racing cars navigates a corner lined with sandbag barriers and a distinctive spiked guardrail. The group includes Harry Schell in his Vanwall VW2 (16) and Juan Manuel Fangio in a Ferrari-Lancia D50 (20). Also visible are Peter Collins (26) and Luigi Musso (24) in their Ferrari-Lancias. Spectators watch from behind a hedge, with the bustling harbor and the densely packed city built on a steep hillside creating an iconic backdrop for the race.
