The Scarabs were disappointingly slow and to find out if it was the driver or the car, Reventlow (left) let Stirling Moss try one. He did a better time but it would not have been enough to qualify. Monaco Grand Prix 1960.

During the 1960 Monaco Grand Prix, Lance Reventlow (left) enlisted Stirling Moss to test his disappointingly slow Scarab car. Here, Moss, clad in a white helmet and racing suit, speaks animatedly with Reventlow after the trial. Holding his goggles and wearing stringback driving gloves, he is observed by team members. Although Moss achieved a better time than the team's regular drivers, it was still not enough for the car to qualify for the race.
