Finland's famed ice racer, Tavho Myrsky, now shifts up and speeds ahead, rapidly gapping the field and passing as far as Rue de Congrès. Behind Megane Omalie of Norway struggles to keep pace yet falls back inevitably as the Fin's powerful Chrysler Special with its 6.3 liter engine speeds ahead toward the curve at Hôtel Ruhl. Louis de Montignac of Monaco presses forward as Germany follows closely behind. Belgium, in the little yellow Bugatti T35B, shifts up crudely and cannot hold off Sweden's famed Shark, Rutger Hägglund, who sails past in the center lane to come alongside Hegkman of Germany, who also leaves Belgium down two places. Sebi Orsi, in his Maserati, painted in Italian rosso corsa, realizes he is too slow to hold off the advance of those behind. It will take a miracle in the Maserati not to fall perhaps even hopelessly back -- but isn’t that the true nature of the mark, to make miracles on the circuit? Orsi falls back first to France, who cruises by in the powerful Salmson, its aircraft engine howling. And next? You can see it now, as there comes skidding out of the Hôtel Negresco hairpin as if in a vengeance, Vitez Rychly of Czechoslovakia. He presses on while Britain expertly handles the last seconds in the hairpin curve close by. Rychly glances up to the balcony as VV blows a kiss from above, seemingly pleased to see that he will soon overtake the Italian. Farther back, Spain shifts down to 1st Gear, forcing the Swiss driver, Petrus de Salvion, to cut to the center lane and pass by, still carrying too much speed deep into the curve. Incredibly, the field is now separated by a gap so wide that as Finland races toward Hôtel Ruhl, the last two cars in the field are struggling still through the hairpin at Hôtel Negresco. Yet it is a long race ahead and a lot can happen -- after all, who could have expected the last place driver off pole now to be dashing away, so far ahead, after only the first curve!
