1958 Monaco Grand Prix

581

in 1958 a new order was emerging,

no longer was there the domination of the historic red cars from Italy

smaller teams from England with their innovations were beginning to take over

at the first lap no red car to be seen,it is the BRM from Behra,Brooks in the Vanwall and the Coopers of Brabham and Trintignant....

the big guns like Hawthorne in his Ferrari,above

and all the three Vanwalls like the Moss car below, retired

leaving the way for Trintignant in his little Rob Walker Cooper to win,

the first ever win at Monaco for a rear engined car

all acrylic on paper 5x7"

Yes! it is May and it is Monaco...

I got inspired after watching this little video of the 1955 Monaco Grand Prix,over at F1Fanatic,my daily read.

Thought it would be fun to tell the story in 4 little acrylic impressions
only measuring 4x6" these will go as a set.sold

This is just before the start...Ascari in his red Lancia managed to split the dominant Mercedes' of Fangio and Moss during practise...

Lap one and somehow Castellotti got up to second in the other Lancia,but soon Moss would take second place and the two Mercedes' led the race easily.Ferrari was nowhere to be seen...

Ascari in his Lancia pasing the pits.The two Mercedes' were not as reliable as they were fast,first Fangio then Moss would retire with mechanical problems.Just as Ascari would take over the lead he crashed into the Monaco harbour,a spectacular accident which he survived,only to be killed in a testing accident a few days later...

After the Merceds' and Lancias were out of the way,the road was clear for local hero Maurice Trintignant in his Ferrari to take a fortunate but popular win. sold
