Grand Prix de Monaco Historique 2016 

The Grand Prix de Monaco Historique will celebrate in 2016 its 10th edition, an unmissable event for worldwide collectors and classic motorsport fanatics.

A real sprint race, contested on the legendary circuit of Monaco, The Grand Prix de Monaco Historique is designed for worldwide collectors, nostalgic enthusiasts, drivers, spectators and ardent supporters of former days’ mechanics, who definitely won’t miss this world event.

Organized since 1997 by the Automobile Club de Monaco, this “biennial” event will take place two weeks before the Grand Prix de Monaco de Formule 1.

Within two and a half days, from Friday 13th afternoon to Sunday, May 15th, 2016, the Principality of Monaco is going to be transformed into a real temple to turn back the clock. 

It is indeed about 50 years of motor racing that will be commemorated, through 8 exceptional series:
• Event A : Pre-war Grand-Prix Cars
• Race B : Pre-1961 front-engined F1 Grand Prix and F2 cars
• Race C : Front engine Sports Racing cars raced from 1952 to 1955 (included)
• Race D : Front-engined, drum brakes Formula Junior Cars from 1958 to 1960 (included)
• Race E : 1500 F1 Grand Prix Cars from 1961 to 1965 (included)
• Race F : F1 Grand Prix Cars from 1966 to 1972 (included)
• Race G : F1 Grand Prix Cars from 1973 to 1976 (included)

Monaco Grand Prix

The Monaco Grand Prix is the one race of the year that every driver dreams of winning. Like the Indy 500 or Le Mans, it stands alone, almost distinct from the sport from which it was born. A combination of precision driving, technical excellence and sheer bravery is required to win in Monte Carlo, facets which highlight the differences between the great and the good in Formula One.

The Armco barrier-lined circuit leaves no margin for error, demanding more concentration that any other Formula One track. Cars run with maximum downforce and brakes are worked hard. Overtaking is next to impossible so qualifying in Monaco is more critical than at any other Grand Prix.

The Portier corner is key to achieving a good lap time around Monaco. It is preceded by the Loews hairpin, the slowest corner in Formula One, and followed by the tunnel, one of the few flat-out sections of the track. Some great names have ended their races in the barriers here, most notably Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher. To win in Monaco places a driver's name on a list that includes many of history's all-time greats. Both Graham Hill, the man nicknamed 'Mr Monaco', and Schumacher have won it five times, Alain Prost took four victories, whilst Stirling Moss and Jackie Stewart each won here three times. But the record of wins in the Principality resides with the Senna, who won in Monte Carlo six times.

The race has been a regular fixture of the world championship since 1955, but in that time the circuit has changed remarkably little. Slight alterations were made for the 2003 event, in particular a new, gentler entry to the Rascasse corner, with even bigger changes in 2004, with a new pit complex and increased spectator capacity.
