Dear competitors, We would like to remind you, in respect of the environmental laws, that it is strictly forbidden to tamper with “trees, poles, mail boxes, and houses”. As of today, the Automobile Club of Monaco has received a lot of complaints from residents and community organizations. All competitors seen to disrespect these environmental laws, will immediately be excluded from the Rally. We wish you good “recce” and happy holidays.
A route worthy to celebrate the event’s 20th edition!
The 20th edition of the Rally Monte-Carlo Historique pays tribute to the participation in the 1967 Rallye Automobile Monte-Carlo of French rock icon Johnny Hallyday and Henri Chemin in a Ford Mustang. Half-a-century on, the event promises to attract another strong entry to see who succeeds from the 2016 winners Daniel Perfetti and Ronnie Kessel (Alpine-Renault A110). As usual, the 2017 Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique will be open to cars that took part in the actual event from 1955 until 1980. To give all competitors a chance to target an honourable result, there will once again be a choice of three average speed levels to comply with during the competition. The rally will start on Wednesday, January 25, with the week’s first Concentration Run starts from Stockholm (2,735km / 9:00am), Glasgow (2,092km / 6:00pm) and Lisbon (2,212km / 7:00pm). Another start venue option is Copenhagen (2,074km / 12:10pm) on Thursday, January 26), or competitors can choose Bad Homburg (1,242km / 2:20pm), Barcelona (1,050km / 4:30pm) or Reims (1,004km / 7:00pm) on Friday, January 27.* The routes of the different Concentration Runs will convene in Digne les Bains from 10:00am on Saturday, January 28, before moving on to Saint André les Alpes – near the spectacular Verdon Lake and Gorges – from 10:55am. Competitive hostilities will then kick off with the first Regularity Section between Entrevaux, Val de Chalvagne and Entrevaux (15.78km) at 12:10pm. After this appetiser which takes in the Col de Félines (altitude: 930 metres), the field will head to the end-of-day halt in the Principality of Monaco .* The rally will resume at 06:00am on Sunday, January 29, with the beginning of the Classification Run. The first test will be a classic of the modern-day event, namely a visit to the Col de Corobin (1,211m) as part of Chaudon Norante-Digne les Bains (18.63km, 7:55am) which will be used for the very first time as a Regularity Section. It will be followed by another legendary test – Thoard-Sisteron (35.74km, 9:40am) – which is famed for the eternally complex conditions found at the Col de Fontbelle (1,304m). After a halt in front of the Town Hall in Sisteron from 10:50am, competitors will head for the nearby Baronnies Provençales Natural Park for Orpierre-Laborel-Saint André de Rosans (39.34km, 12:00 noon) which is another classic that is familiar to regulars. The day’s fourth and last Regularity Section will be Vassieux en Vercors-Saint Jean en Royans (23.55km, 12:45pm) via the Col de L’Echarasson (1,146m) which could well spring a few surprises before the overnight stop Valence which will be reached at 4:00pm.* From there, the first part of the Common Run will strike out to France’s Ardèche region on Monday, January 30 at 07:00am. The day will begin with La Croze-Saint Julien du Gua-Antraigues sur Volane (50.64km, 8:00am), followed immediately by the mandatory ‘gourmet’ halt at the Jouanny family-owned La Remise restaurant! The competition will continue with Burzet-Le Chambon (39.70km, 9:53am).* The lunchtime break is scheduled for 11:50am in Saint Agrève where the sampling of local produce is always a popular moment for all. Unlike in 2016, when the afternoon saw the rally head for France’s Haute-Loire department, competitors will stay in the Ardèche this time, with a run through Saint Pierre sur Doux-Col du Buisson (22.36km, 12:30pm) before the day ends with Lamastre-Gilhoc sur Ormèze-Plats (36.00km, 1:35pm) which has featured since 2015. The drive back to Valence will take in the traditional and ever-popular stop in Tournon sur Rhône (Quai Farconnet) at 3:00pm.* The second part of the Common Run on Tuesday, January 31, which begins at 05:00, will mark the return of Col de L’Echarasson (1,146m)-La Cime du Mas (17.96km, 6:22am), chased by a classic in the Drôme Provençale region (Saint Nazaire le Désert-La Motte Chalancon, 21.60km, 8:19am) and the awesome Verclause-Laborel-Eygalayes test (37.70km, 9:11am). The last Time Control before parc ferme in Monaco will be set up in La Turbie (Place Neuve) with the first crew due to check in at 2:50pm.* The Final Night Run (January 31-February 1) will start in Monaco at 9:00pm and features two notorious tests: Luceram-Lantosque (26.89km, 10:00pm) in the Vésubie Valley, and La Bollène Vésubie-Moulinet-Sospel (52.78km, 10:45pm) which includes the celebrated Col de Turini (1,604m). After the event’s last against-the-clock sections, survivors will head back to Monaco (Port Hercule) for the finish where they are due to arrive at 1:20am.* The 20th Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique will conclude on Wednesday, February 1, with prize-giving and the Gala Evening in the Monte-Carlo Sporting Club’s Salle des Etoiles (evening dress or dark clothing mandatory). *These hours may be subject to changes.

Home » Renault 8 Gordini: a true legend of motor racing!
Some cars have marked their times, in a specific way. Renault 8 Gordini is one of them, so Renault decided in 2017 to enter four of them in this rally. One of the most popular sportscar ever produced, Renault 8 Gordini guaranteed a top speed of 175 km/h at a very affordable price.
Born in 1964, it allowed awhole generation of drivers to start enjoying a very sportyway to drive. Because the «Gorde» (its nickname) was ready for it, thanks to a pack of changes brought to its road car base, the Renault 8 Major. Amédée Gordini, nicknamed the “Sorcerer”, doubled the power avaiable, thanks to a new cylinder head and two superb Weber carburettors.
Suspensions, steering, brakes and additional equipment go well with the top speed of 175 km/h. They fully justify the round dials and the white stripes on the legendary blue livery. Born with a 1,108 cc engine, this little bomb was equipped with 1,255 cc in 1966, as well as two extra round lights giving it a famous look.
The same year, the “Gordini Cup” was launched, in order to make themyth evenmorepopular.
Many drivers started racing in a R8 Gordini and remember it well. In 1970, the Renault 8 Gordini was replaced by a Renault 12 Gordini.
Renault enters four Renault 8 Gordini in Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique 2017.
The Renault Classic crews start from Barcelona on Friday January 27, aiming to reach the chequered flag in Monaco on Wednesday February 1st.
• Crew #5 : Manu Guigou / Jean-Pierre Prevot
• Crew #8 : Jean Ragnotti / Sebastien Delanney
• Crew#12 : Michel Leclere / MichelDuvernay
• Crew#14 : Guillaume Chancel / François-Paul Forgeoux
The four Renault 8 Gordini entered by Renault Classic this year in the Rallye Monte Carlo Historique are using Michelin tires X M+S 89 (135×15) which proved their worth along previous editions.
