Here you are. I found the same pic with the list of participant and there you are the info about the Sunbeam.
In the left I added the Standard 12HP raced by Coatalen at the 1911 Coupe de l’Auto.

Your point!

Interestingly enough, all my three different sources claim three different names for the driver:

Coatelen
Cartoux and
Richard (however they also say, that Sunbeam is an American make...)
