On the right side of the image is the sleek MG C-Type Midget with registration number 746S cc, driven by Cyril Paul. Unfortunately, Paul retired from the race. On the left side stands Edgar Maclure's powerful Riley with a displacement of 1486 cc, bearing event entry number 15. Despite facing tough competition, Maclure managed to secure an impressive eighth place overall and first in his class. The photograph showcases a moment frozen in time at this historic motor racing circuit. The grandstand is filled with enthusiastic spectators eagerly watching as these magnificent vintage cars speed past them on this iconic avenue.
