Parting Shot

Stirling Moss makes the best of a traditional Le Mans start as he prepares to take the helm of Jaguar D-type no12, shared with Peter Walker. Also prominent are the Hamilton/Rolt D-type (no14, second in the race to the González/Trintignant Ferrari 375 Plus) and the Parnell/Salvadori Aston Martin DB3S. The Moss/Walker Jaguar would retire with braking problems at half-distance.
