100 years ago the first
Rallye Monte Carlo was started. Challenges, rules and setup changed from year to year and initially it was more a
reliability and
regularity test than a speed race. Only in the 60ies they invented the special sections where
speed was king. From time to time they invented
funny rules, such as the more
people you have in the car you more points you gain, or a
design evaluation where Coupés were more valuable than Convertibles. Most of us probably remember the times of the
Mini Cooper,
Alpine A110,
Porsche 911,
Lancia Stratos, Audi Quattro and the
Group B.
On
zwischengas you find an article for each year and plenty of pictures (in total more than 200) and it's quite interesting to see the winners and losers coming and going.
