This photograph captures the moment of triumph for racing legend, Luigi Chiron, as he crosses the finish line at the 1929 Spanish Grand Prix in San Sebastian.

The second time Chiron claimed victory in this prestigious race, he solidified his reputation as a formidable competitor in the world of motor sports.
