Stirling Moss, (30) Cooper-Climax T51. Monaco Grand Prix 1959.

With a grime-streaked face and a look of intense concentration, Stirling Moss sits in the cockpit of his Cooper-Climax T51 during the 1959 Monaco Grand Prix. He wears a light-colored, open-face helmet with goggles pushed down around his neck, his hands gripping the steering wheel. To his left, prominent exhaust pipes snake from the engine, while arcing white stripes decorate the bodywork of the car, which bears race number 30. In the background, team members tend to the vehicle, capturing the raw atmosphere of mid-century motorsport.
