EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic print captured on September 5th, 1959, we witness the dramatic moment when Stirling Moss's Aston Martin burst into flames during the six-hour tourists trophy race at Goodwood. As the car came to a stop in the pits, engulfed in an inferno of fire and smoke, Moss's co-driver Roy Salvadori managed to escape just in time but suffered burns that required immediate medical attention. The image showcases Stirling Moss standing beside his burnt-out Aston Martin, deep in conversation with a concerned mechanic. The wreckage serves as a testament to the intense heat and destruction that unfolded moments before. Despite this setback, Moss displayed remarkable resilience by taking over Aston Martin's No. 2 car and ultimately emerging victorious from the race. This photograph not only captures a significant event in motorsport history but also highlights the bravery and determination of these racing legends. It is a reminder of how perilous their profession can be while showcasing their unwavering spirit for competition.
