This weekend, all eyes will be on Monaco for the annual Formula 1 Grand Prix. We already visited the Principality earlier this year to capture the 15th edition of the Monaco Historic Grand Prix. The biennial event celebrates the rich history of the most prestigious Grand Prix on the calendar. It uses the very same challenging street circuit and is open to competition cars of a type that raced at Monaco between 1929 and 1985. The entry list is split in eight different grids with seven reserved for Grand Prix cars and the eighth to celebrate the unique 1952 Monaco Grand Prix that was run for sports cars. New for this year's edition was the addition of turbo-engined cars to the final grid on the roster. Even though only one had been used for historic racing, and only once, five of the highly anticipated turbo cars were entered. Among the other stand-out cars were the very rare H16-engined BRM, the one-off Lancia Marino and the 1968 French Grand Prix winning Ferrari 312/68 F1 that was reunited with its original driver Jackie Ickx for demonstration runs. At the sharp end of the fields, there was some fantastic racing as the tight and twisty track really requires a skilled hand.
As always, we explored the streets of Monaco to capture the event in its entirety. The result is this detailed report and class-by-class 180-shot gallery.
