In this iconic photograph from the 1981 Monaco Grand Prix, Canadian racing legend Gilles Villeneuve celebrates his victory at the Tabac corner, marking his first and only Monaco win in his career. The scene unfolds on the streets of Monte Carlo, Monaco, where the annual Formula One race is held from May 28 to 31, 1981. Villeneuve, driving the iconic red Ferrari 126CK, had battled against the best drivers of the era, including Nelson Piquet, Alain Prost, and Elio De Angelis, to secure the top spot on the podium. The image captures the raw emotion and excitement of Villeneuve's triumph, as he raises his arms in triumph and basks in the adoration of the cheering crowd.

The photograph is part of the extensive archive of LAT Photographic, a leading motorsport photography agency that has documented the history of Formula One and other racing series for decades.
