Monaco Historique

Some useful information for the Grand Prix de Monaco Historique weekend
Your ticket includes Saturday & Sunday reserved seating in your booked grandstand. Friday access is included with your Saturday & Sunday tickets – no additional ticket is required. For those of you staying in Nice, do make use of public transport; it’s quick, cheap and easy Arrive early! Access out of the train station will be easier and you’ll have time to soak up the Monte Carlo atmosphere.
Leave late! The train station and the roads leading up to it can get overcrowded at the end of each day’s racing action, so we recommend having a stroll round Monte Carlo or going to have a drink to let the crowds disperse before heading to your train. The track opens up after each day’s racing and it’s the perfect opportunity to walk the track. Getting in and out of the train station and to your grandstand is very easy over the race weekend – the grandstands are signposted all the way from the train platforms and through Monte Carlo, and there are marshals on hand to help. Bring sun protection, sun glasses, a hat, ear plugs and do wear comfortable footwear. And it’ always worth packing a raincoat just in case, as there is little cover in and around the grandstands.

Our Hints & Tips

The 13th Edition of Grand Prix de Monaco Historique will look a lot like its predecessors, with a few exceptions somehow, and priority will be given, one more time, to Formula One single-seaters which wrote the greatest pages of the legend of this mythical event, in keeping with the guidelines set by the Organizing and Selection Committee of Automobile Club de Monaco (ACM). In 2022, around 200 cars will fight in 8 series and races set on an authentic and majestic stage, the famous circuit of the Principality …

This 13th edition will be marked by the first outing, at GP de Monaco Historique, of a more recent generation of Formula 1 single-seaters (Race G) which, between 1981 and 1985, were powered by the very last versions of the iconic Ford Cosworth DFV V8 engine, born in 1967. In the history books, Italia’s Michele Alboreto, in a Tyrrell 011, won the last two Grands Prix, in 1982 and 1983, of a long series for Cosworth, the robust English engine faced with the growing challenge of turbo engines, an era started by Renault in 1977.

This « 1981-85 » period was also when Alain Prost won the first two of his four Monaco wins, and the first of his four world titles. And it was also the moment when a young Brazilian by the name of Ayrton Senna burst on the Formula 1 scene, especially in 1984, driving a Toleman in the rain. This race made him famous almost instantly and opened the doors of the Lotus-Renault Team to him, leading to his first two F1 wins in 1985. In addition to the presence of 14 Formula 1 single-seaters having won at least one World Championship Grand Prix, and 120 other F1 cars (including 90 powered by a 3-liter engine between 1966 and 1985), this 2022 edition will also be a great opportunity to celebrate two anniversaries.
