Lorenzo Bandini Ferrari F1 minutes before his fatal crash Monaco 1967
Using a telephoto lens from the location at the end of the Casino gardens in Monaco I was able to photograph the cars as they entered the (then) Station Hairpin. This image was of Lorenzo Bandini in his Ferrari and was the very last image of Bandini I was able to take, shortly after this image was taken he crashed heavily on the Monaco harbour front and his car burst into flames. Lorenzo Bandini later died from his injuries which left a cloud over the event which was won by New Zealander Denny Hulme in a Brabham.
Location: Monaco
