Directly behind are their teammates, Stirling Moss (#6) and Eugenio Castellotti (#30). Further down, the field includes Jean Behra in his Maserati 250F and Maurice Trintignant in a Ferrari 625. A massive crowd fills the grandstands lining the street circuit, with the densely packed hillside of Monte Carlo rising in the background.
