EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the heart of Belfast's Ards Circuit during the iconic RAC TT Race of 1932, this print showcases the legendary MG C type Midget driven by Cyril Paul. The powerful engine of this vintage car, boasting a remarkable 746S cc capacity, roared through the pits as Paul prepared for an exhilarating race. Surrounded by a bustling atmosphere filled with fellow drivers and mechanics donning their distinctive overalls, Cyril Paul exuded determination and passion as he embarked on his racing journey. Despite facing unforeseen challenges along the way, fate had other plans for him that day, forcing him to retire from the competition prematurely. This snapshot in time not only captures a momentous event in British motorsport history but also serves as a testament to the enduring allure of classic cars. With its monochrome aesthetic and timeless charm, this photograph transports us back to an era when motor racing was at its peak. Preserved within the National Motor Museum archives, this rare image is a reminder of how sport can unite people from all walks of life. It pays homage to both Cyril Paul's indomitable spirit behind the wheel and Bill Brunell's skillful artistry behind capturing such breathtaking moments. As we gaze upon this piece of motoring history, we are reminded that it is not just about speed or victory; it is about embracing our shared love for automobiles and celebrating those who have paved the way for future generations.
