EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, taken on November 21, 1960, the determination and focus of rally drivers Mary Handley-Page and Ann Hooper are palpable as they prepare to continue their journey in the RAC Rally. The image captures the raw energy and excitement of the event, with the dusty terrain and rugged landscape of the checkpoint serving as a stark contrast to the pristine elegance of their car. Mary Handley-Page, a pioneering female racer, and Ann Hooper, her dedicated navigator, are fully immersed in the challenge of the rally, their expressions conveying a sense of unwavering commitment and concentration. The worn-out map spread out on the hood of the car, the compass in Handley-Page's hand, and the intense gaze of both women towards the horizon all underscore their determination to conquer the grueling course. The atmosphere at the checkpoint is electric, with the sounds of revving engines, the smell of fuel, and the sight of teams frantically making repairs and adjustments to their vehicles. The crowd, a sea of spectators, press, and fellow competitors, watches with bated breath as the rally continues, each team striving to outperform the others. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of motorsport, with its blend of adrenaline, competition, and camaraderie. It transports us back to a time when rallying was a daring and adventurous pursuit, and when the spirit of competition drove individuals to push themselves and their machines to the limit.
