Stirling Moss pushes his car, but the bastards later disqualified him for receiving "outside assistance" a push start after a spin, the cowards. July 1959


He tried to push-start it, to the approval of the cheering crowds, and a photograph of him pushing the BRM has become an enduring image of his guts and determination.

He places eighth, but is disqualified for receiving outside assistance for a push start after a spin.

Two of the above photographers are famous, Denise McCluggage and Bernard Cahier
