On the starting grid before the 1955 Monaco Grand Prix, mechanics and officials make final preparations. Visible are the Maserati 250Fs of Carlos Menditeguy (36), Harry Schell (38), and Masten Gregory (2), alongside Maurice Trintignant in his Ferrari-Lancia (30) and Wolfgang von Trips in a Ferrari 801 (24). A sea of spectators packs the tiered grandstand on the Quai Albert-1er, its facade displaying banners for Shell and Longines, while others watch from the tree-covered hillside above, heightening the pre-race excitement.
