At the 1956 Monaco Grand Prix, Harry Schell in his Vanwall VW2 (16) and Juan Manuel Fangio in a Ferrari-Lancia D50 (20) navigate a turn. The race unfolds against the classic backdrop of the principality's harbor and steep, building-lined hills. In an era of minimal safety measures, the track is lined with simple sandbag barriers. The packed field of drivers also included Jean Behra in his Maserati 250F and the Ferrari-Lancia team of Eugenio Castellotti, Luigi Musso, and Peter Collins.
