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.
A weary Innes Ireland sits against a barrier, his expression pensive following the 1960 Monaco Grand Prix. To finish the race, he had been forced to push his N° 22 Lotus 18 uphill around the twisting circuit. Dressed in a ribbed sweater and rumpled trousers, the driver is observed by a man in a cap leaning forward intently and another in a suit standing in profile. Ireland's extraordinary effort was rewarded with 9th place and a world championship point.
