At the 1961 Monaco Grand Prix, driver Stirling Moss (right) and Alf Francis, chief mechanic of the Rob Walker Racing Team, are intently focused on the exposed engine of the number 20 Lotus-Climax. Francis, standing in a soiled jumpsuit, closely examines a component while Moss, in his white Dunlop racing suit, bends over the complex V-style engine, tool in hand. The car’s tubular space frame is visible, with spectators and the city’s apartment buildings forming the backdrop to the sunlit scene.
