Raymond Sommer, (42) Ferrari 125, behind him Luigi Villoresi, (38) Ferrari 125. Monaco Grand Prix 1950.

From a high angle, spectators crowd a stone wall to watch the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix. Below, Raymond Sommer in his number 42 Ferrari 125 speeds along the harbor front, followed by Luigi Villoresi in a sister car, number 38. The paved track, streaked with tire marks, is separated from the boats in the water by only a low curb, while a simple trough of sandbags forms the barrier between the race and the onlookers.
