Obligatory Harbor Picture

I’m just coming back from a France/Italy vacation, with the trip starting out with Nice and Monaco. We dedicated our first Sunday to the Historic Grand Prix and exploring Monaco. They ran 10-18 lap races depending on the class, and had seven classes ranging from pre-war cars to the early 80's. More races, more variety, for about 1/10th the price of the actual Grand Prix, pretty good deal. Overall, I highly recommend it if you’re at all considering a trip to Monaco. They do it on even number years two weeks before the actual Grand Prix. Here are a few out of the many pictures I took.

Took a break from the action and explored the Prince’s Palace. Very cool view of the circuit from above.

Rain made things a little unpleasant but made for some cool visuals.

Nice, that was while it was still sunny. Is it anywhere online?

The Class C I saw, it was pissing it down and drivers were taking it cautiously, a grey Jaguar spun out and thankfully missed everything even though it came so close to the side wall a few times.

It’s on Channel 4 OnDemand.

Goodwood Road & Racing channel have several videos of highlights of the different races.
