Back to the roots!
The 24th edition of Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique will mark the return of concentration legs, with three emblematic cities on the starting list: Bad Homburg, Milan and Reims. And three different routes… to the same destination: Monte-Carlo. This move was wished by the Organizing Committee at Automobile Club de Monaco (ACM) in order to boost the economy of the Principality and to welcome again crews coming from all over Europe ! The route for this edition – with a record number of 17 regularity stages (SR) – will be a cocktail of diversity and difficulties. The stages on the menu will all be remarkable, just because whole pages of the legend of Rally Monte-Carlo were written on these roads and passes. There will be a whole lot of candidates ready to fight and willing to add their names on the tables after Henrik Bjerregaard and Jaromir Svec, the last winning crew aboard a 1979 Ford Escort RS2000...
The End of Concentration Leg is scheduled for Saturday January 29 between Monaco (1st crew starting at 6:00am)and Valence, the Drôme Prefecture and again the Host City. With four Regularity Stages (SRs) on the menu, this first real racing day will be tough to manage and probably exhausting. The appetizer will be a short version of «Col de Bleine – Saint Auban / SR1 / 07:50am / 15,39km» before a new stage «Col des Aires – Eygaliers / SR2 / 11:20am / 13,99km»at the foot of famous Mont-Ventoux. Then crews will then head for Buis-les-Baronnies (12:10pm) where a mid-day checkpoint will be organized for all of them on Parking des Platanes. In order to go back to Valence, the next stage will be «Eygalayes – Montauban-sur-l’Ouvèze / SR3 / 1:00pm / 30,25km» through two famous passes, Col Saint-Jean and Col de Perty via Laborel, followed by «Sainte-Jalle – Rémuzat / SR4 / 2:10pm / 16,58km» through Col de Soubeyrand, to close this chapter of the concentration in style. The last checkpoint will be set in Crest at 4:00pm, in order to regulate the flow of crews expected on Champ de Mars in Valence from 4:50pm onwards.
The next day is set in Ardèche, on Sunday January 30, with a start at 7:00am for the Classification Leg and, to start the morning, «La Croze – Saint-Andéol-de-Vals / SR5 / 8:00am / 42,83km» followed by the traditional pause in Antraigues-sur-Volane, in front of the famous « Remise » where the Jouanny family will serve its renowned apple-pie to all crews. This will be a good way to prepare for another legendary stage, «Burzet – Saint-Martial / SR6 / 10:10am / 30,71km» via the Ray-Pic Cascade and Lachamp-Raphaël. The mid-day pause is scheduled for 11:50am on Place du Marché in Saint-Agrève, where local products will be appreciated by all participants before starting a tough loop made of «Saint-Bonnet-le-Froid / SR7 / 12:20pm / 27,28km» and « Lalouvesc – Labatie-d’Andaure / SR8 / 1:15pm / 19,96km». Then back to Valence (3:40pm) without forgetting to stop, from 2:50pm onwards, at Quai Farconnet in Tournon-sur-Rhône for a set of friendly ritual rallying activities of all sorts.
On Monday January 31, starting at 7:00am the 1st part of the Common Leg will be set in Baronnies provençales Regional Park, starting with «La Charce – Rosans / SR9 / 9:00am / 12,65km» via Col de Pommerol, and following suit with « Saint-André-de-Rosans – Laborel / SR10 / 9:40am / 28,04km». The mid-day pause will take place in Laragne-Montéglin, supervised by the Auto-Sport du Laragnais motor racing club from 11:00am. A few minutes to take a breath and appreciate a few local delicacies will be crucial before starting « Ventavon – Chabestan / SR11 / 11:20am / 21,22km» through the very demanding Col de Faye and a downhill portion towards Savournon. Last but not least, to finish this gruelling day, crews will head for the Vercors hills and « La Cîme du Mas – Col de Gaudissart / SR12 / 1:55pm / 17,48km» via Col de l'Écharasson as a justice of peace! The last halt before returning to Valence (4:00pm) will happen on Place du Champ de Mars in Saint-Jean-en-Royans where the last checkpoint of the day is scheduled from 2:50pm onwards.
On Tuesday February 1, the start from Valence is scheduled for 6:00am before heading for the Diois hills. This 2nd part of the Common Leg will start with a monumental stage, «Saint-Nazaire-le-Désert – Gumiane / SR13 / 7:30am / 30,04km» and no less than four passes on the way: Col des Guillens / Col du Portail / Col de Vache / Col des Roustans followed by a very tough downhill portion called « Route de Tremouret » towards the finish line of this stage. The next one will be «Sisteron – Thoard / SR14 / 10:10am / 32,77km» via Authon and the scary pass of Col de Fontbelle, followed by «Rouaine – Entrevaux / SR15 / 12:30pm / 23,52km» through Val de Chalvagne and Col de Félines. The last checkpoint before entering Parc fermé in Monaco (3:10pm) will happen on Place Neuve in La Turbie, from 2:40pm onwards.
The start for the Final Leg is scheduled in the night of Tuesday 1 to Wednesday February 2 in Monaco from 9:00pm onwards. On the menu of this last night, «Sospel – La-Bollène-Vésubie / SR16 / 10:00pm / 30,96km» via famous Col de Turini will be followed by «Loda – Coaraze / SR17 / 11:10pm / 22,43km» through Col de Porte and Col Saint-Roch. The winning crew is expected around 1:10am on Port Hercule in Monaco.
Last but not least, in order to respect tradition, the Prize Ceremony and Gala Night will happen on the evening of Wednesday February 3 in the Salle des Etoiles at Monte-Carlo Sporting Club (Dress code: dark suit, evening dress).

Safety, a necessity rule for the smooth running of the event, has its guardian angels! 2 crews who pass before the competitors, between 1 hour and 30 minutes before the first car.
On this Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique, the role of the two teams, composed respectively by Jean-Luc Vieilleville / Romain Pugliese (Car 00) and Jean-Michel Matas / Jérémy Joffre (Car 0) is to check that the various devices are in setting up on the ground (CH Departure, Secret Points and Stop Points in particular) and to ensure that the regularity stages can be used by all the competitors, without danger…
