Peter Whitehead, (28) Ferrari 125. Monaco Grand Prix 1950.
At the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix, Peter Whitehead sits at the wheel of his No. 28 Ferrari 125. Dressed in a soft helmet and goggles, he is attended to in the open cockpit by two men while spectators watch from behind a low barrier. The dark racing car, with its long, louvered bonnet and prominent wire-spoked wheels, is positioned on the track against a backdrop of the city’s coastal architecture. The scene captures the raw atmosphere of early post-war motor racing.
