Rodger Ward -- Ferrari 121 LM / Jack Graham -- Aston Martin DB3S-Chevy

This photo must have been shot in practice as it couldn't have been shot during the race.  An odd coincidence to see these two cars running together, as they came together castastrophically at the start of the Grand Prix. 

Near the front of the grid, second-row starter Dan Gurney stalled his Ferrari's engine.   In the confusion, Graham, an experienced driver, couldn't avoid Gurney's stopped car.  His red Aston smashed into the 4.9 Ferrari, then caromed into Ward's slower 4.4 liter 6-cylinder Ferrari, which was accelerating up from the back of the field.
