The BRDC 500 Mile Race on 24th September 1932.
Car No.32 is the Bugatti T51 (Reg. 4133BA2) of Stanis?aw Czaykowski (retired lap 49), hence parked at pits.
The No.35 Talbot may be the car of Tim Rose-Richards that failed to finish (lap 93).
Stanis?aw = Stanislaw (the font can't cope with the Polish "L")
00:54 - this is Countess Czaykowski and at 01:18 is the Count, removing his scarf and walking around the front of his broken Bugatti (both identified from a photograph taken before the race).
