Innes Ireland pushes his N° 22 Lotus 18 uphill and right around the twisting Monaco circuit so that he can finish the race. His effort was repaid when he got 9th place and one point for the world championship. Monaco Grand Prix 1960.

With a weary, contemplative expression, Innes Ireland sits on his N° 22 Lotus 18 after the 1960 Monaco Grand Prix. The car’s severely damaged front wheel is a testament to the effort required to finish the race; Ireland was forced to push the vehicle uphill around the twisting circuit. His perseverance was rewarded with a 9th place finish and one point for the world championship.
