The Automobile Club de Monaco will introduce a great novelty for the forthcoming Grand Prix de Monaco historique with the help of Yvon Amiel, the author and artist of the Adventures of Antoine le Pilote*, the driver hero who allows all generations to share the passion of automobile racing.

An artist whose work we were able to admire last year at the Collection de Voitures de S.A.S. le Prince of Monaco, of which paintings, driver statues, figurines, art cars and also a magnificent sculpture interpretation of Ayrton Senna’s Lotus 97T.

Together with his colleague from Geneva, Fernando Grande, Yvon Amiel has designed and produced 8 Trophy’s, each an effigy of the 8 drivers who’s names headline a series of races. From Louis Chiron and Aytron Senna to Juan Manuel Fangio, Vittorio Marzotto, Graham Hill, Jackie Stewart, Niki Lauda and Gilles Villeneuve.

A very nice reward for the winning drivers of each race, who will all go home with a unique and original work of art.

In addition to winning the H.S.H. the Prince of Monaco’s Cup, the winners of each race will each leave with a unique and original work of art… just like the Historic Monaco Grand Prix!

*Antoine le pilote, hero for kids aged 5 till 105. 15 albums to date, published by Gilletta.
