Franco Bordoni, (34) Osca MT4 1350. Monaco Grand Prix 1952, transformed into a race for sports cars. This was a two day event, the Sunday for the up to 2 litres (Prix de Monte Carlo), the Monday for the bigger engines, (Monaco Grand Prix).
Franco Bordoni pilots his Osca MT4 1350 (34) around a left-hand curve during the 1952 Prix de Monte Carlo. That year, the Monaco Grand Prix weekend was transformed into a race for sports cars. Captured in motion blur, the car passes the Hôtel du Rivage as spectators watch from behind a striped barrier and from the steep embankment below the city's terraced hotels. In the background, buildings, including the Hôtel Balmoral, climb the hillside.
