Fantastic to see colour film with the great sound of these cars. It's also nice to see three Italian teams fighting it out.

The boats were a little smaller back then. LoL. Also how cool would it be to just stand on the sidewalk and watch the cars go by with no barrier.

Fangio n 1

Wider streets than now great

Le glorie del passato,per chiudere con Schumacher, oggi solo il silenzio...🍾🍾🍾👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊

Fangio, Moss and Ascari all in the same shot. How absolutely COOL is that?!! The older cars are much more entertaining than modern cars!

3 hour race back then. Now 2 hour limit

This made my day.

Great job

Are these guys racing with no seatbelts?? Or a lap belt only?? Crazy🤪

Só deram bandeira amarela??? Tem que dar bandeira vermelha!!! Só foi a partir de 1978 que a bandeira vermelha foi utilizada no acidente fatal do Ronnie Peterson no GP da Itália de 1978 em Monza! Com narração do Luciano do Valle

wouldnt mind to see Ferrari #44 win again in Monaaaco 70 years later!

Wild to think "Business Casual" was the chosen attire for F1 drivers in the 50's

And although Lancia withdrew from Formula 1 in 1955, it returned to competition in 1970, when the IMC series was established, in which it competed in 1970-1972. And it was in 1970 that the Lancia D50 finally had a successor, and it was a Fulvia coupe with a 1.6 engine. In 1973, the WRC series was established, and the rest is already known. Below I present Lancia's designs: 1954-1955: Lancia D50 1970-1974: Lancia Fulvia 1,6 Coupe HF 1974-1978: Lancia Stratos HF 1982-1985: Lancia 037 Rally 1985-1986: Lancia Delta S4 1987-1992: Lancia Delta HF

Dangerous cars f1 need back to Argentina

These days drivers snitch on each other for the most minor of infringements, complaining incessantly and getting themselves in a right huff...

Imagine heading down the hill after the chicane (was it even there in '50? I'm not sure), losing the brakes and heading straight into that staircase. Ouch

@5:35.." HE SHATTERED THE 18 YEAR OLD RECORD"" THAT was above my head..😢😢😢

frikkkin awesome video. I love the good ol days. OK, so 1955 was not a great year for motorsport, but you guys know where Im coming from. Great video. Well worth the watch.Lancia D50 footage that makes the machine look fantastic. The last of the silver arrows. Vanwall, Maeratti, Villoressi, Farina, Behra. 21 minutes. Its as good as GP highlights today.

The sound of these Monsters!!! Incredible!!!!

They were racing four cars wide. On the streets of Monaco. Where today they can barely do two wide. Amazing.

It was a real F1 race. today it no longer applies, only politics itself

Fangio... 🤩🤩🤩

Hundreds of horsepower on those ridiculously skinny tires. Next to the water. Minimalist barricades between drivers, pit crews and spectators. Madness.

That dive into the harbour ,would today have wrecked a lot of oligarch boats 😀

Fabulous film 👍

Ironically, Ascari had the race in the bag had he only known what had happened up ahead. He could have eased off a bit and played it a bit more safe.

this was the age of heroes! No one here even knew the faint concept of security!

Original version of this legendary lap

V12 7.3L✌

Ascari has always been an underrated driver in regard to when people think back, he was as good or better than all in my view at that time, only Fangio has with him. Sadly he died at Monza this year (55).

Fantastico ho vissuto un GP prima di quando sono nato.....Conoscevo tutti per interviste e 1 Villoresi perchè conosciuto personalmente fantastico.......

Current F1 record for Monaco is some 27 seconds per lap better than these fellows.

incredible footage..great job in the colour tinting too

Yes! Those were the days🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Lancia's with fuel tanks at the sides !!!

The safety standards will always be the best the can, everything by else is space for improvement

Very cool! And now his record is broken...

Maurice Trintignant raconte cette course dans son bouquin "Pilote de courses" et c'est émouvant, 60 ans après avoir lu le livre, d'assister à cette course, avec le tout droit d'Ascari dans le port avec sa Lancia. Ascari passa ensuite chez Ferrari et se tua à Monza en essayant la nouvelle "Squalo" qui était un cercueil roulant pire que la Lancia de 1955. Moi j'aurais PEUR de rouler avec une voiture comme celles qu'on voit ici : pas de freins, des pneus étroits, une tenue de route souvent "délicate", brrrrr ! Bravo à ces Grands que furent Fangio, Moss, Ascari, Surtees etc.

Bellissimo video!

!!! FANTASTIC !!! 👏👏👏

Beautiful footage but the Thought of No Safety of Any Kind is just Bone Chilling😬

No roll bars, no safety structures, sitting in a flimsy, hard to handle car with skinny tires, bad brakes, no downforce and hundreds of horsepower, your head sticking out, on top of (or strapped to) a fuel tank, going past stone walls at 120mph+.

👋Andrea👌 Vegas F1 2023!

this might be the coolest thing ive ever seen

No era para llorones esa F1

Safety equipment? You must be mad! All that stuff just adds weight and slows us down.

SHould we stop the race? Nah.
