The much awaited Scarab cars appear for the first time in Europe. Lance Reventlow, the driver-owner-constructor, prepares for trial laps. Monaco Grand Prix 1960.

Lance Reventlow, the driver-owner-constructor, prepares for trial laps at the 1960 Monaco Grand Prix, which marked the much-awaited European debut of his Scarab cars. From a high angle, he is seen in the cockpit of the dark blue, open-wheel racer, number 18, wearing a reddish-orange suit and helmet with a gloved hand raised. The car sits on the paved track under the dappled shadow of trees, with a Shell motor oil banner visible in the background.
