Peter Collins’ Ferrari 801, car number 26, rests heavily damaged against a barrier on the harbor quay during the 1957 Monaco Grand Prix. The crash occurred on lap 4 after leader Stirling Moss lost control, causing a pile-up that also involved Mike Hawthorn in his Ferrari-Lancia D50. While officials and mechanics gather near the wreck, photographers lie on the ground for a better angle. In the background, spectators observe the scene from the moored yacht *Trenora*.
