René Cotton

  • Tom Wisdom, (82) Jaguar C-Type. Person with checkered hat not yet identified. Behind the Jaguar Delahaye 135S of Cotton, (62). This C-type is famous for the journey it made in 1952 - from Coventry to the Monaco Grand Prix - where it finished 6th and was the first non-Ferrari. The car was driven by Tommy Wisdom in that race – and then driven back to the UK! Monaco Grand Prix 1952, transformed into a race for sports cars. This was a two day event, the Sunday for the up to 2 litres (Prix de Monte Carlo), the Monday for the bigger engines, (Monaco Grand Prix). - Photo by Edward Quinn
