In this photograph, we witness a moment frozen in time, capturing the essence of British automobile racing in the early 20th century. The powerful Delage GP, with its distinctive number 4 emblazoned on its sleek body, is skillfully maneuvered by none other than Earl Howe himself. Known for his passion for motor racing and his aristocratic lineage, The Earl showcases his driving prowess as he confidently navigates through the bend at high speed. Meanwhile, ER Hall exhibits exceptional control over his Bentley, determined to keep up with Earl Howe's relentless pace. The intense competition between these two iconic drivers adds an extra layer of excitement to this historic event.
