In this evocative black-and-white photograph from Motorsport Images, we witness the determination and focus of Mary Handley-Page and Ann Hooper as they navigate their Sunbeam Rapier through a stage during the 1960 RAC Rally. The image, taken on November 21, captures the duo in the midst of an intense competition, with their car's tires kicking up a cloud of dust as they race against the clock. The RAC Rally, one of the world's most prestigious and challenging rally events, had attracted some of the best drivers from around the globe. Mary Handley-Page and Ann Hooper, both accomplished racers in their own right, were no exception. Driving a Sunbeam Rapier, a nimble and powerful car of its time, they were determined to make their mark on the rally's history. The overhead perspective of the photograph offers a unique and dynamic view of the action, allowing us to appreciate the rugged terrain and the sheer grit of the competitors. The Sunbeam Rapier, with its sleek lines and aggressive stance, appears poised to conquer the challenging course. Mary and Ann, their faces focused and determined, seem to embody the spirit of adventure and competition that defined the RAC Rally. As they race towards the finish line, the duo's every move is meticulously calculated, their every decision based on a complex interplay of speed, strategy, and skill. The photograph captures a fleeting moment in time, a snapshot of a bygone era when rallying was a test of man and machine against the elements. It is a testament to the enduring allure of motorsport and the indomitable spirit of those who dare to take on the challenge.
