The 2010 Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique will take place January 28th to February 3rd with a strong field of 340 cars and many star drivers and teams.

The winter historic rally organised by the Automobile Club de Monaco (ACM) looks set for another successful year and appears not to have been affected by the credit crunch, with 380 applications received by the ACM. To reward race fans for their commitment, the ACM has decided to accept 340 applications rather than the 320 initially envisaged. The fortunate will, therefore, be receiving a letter in the next few days informing them that they have been enrolled into the 13th Monte Carlo Historic Rally.

Big names line up for “the Monte”
This year, as ever, drivers who have contributed to the history and renown of the World Rally Championship will once again take the stage for the Monte Carlo Historic Rally. Here are some of the biggest names:

– Bjorn Waldegard, famous Swedish driver, winner of the 1969 and 1970 Monte Carlo Rallies (RAMC) in a Porsche 911. Winner of 16 WRC rallies, named 1st ever WRC world champion rally driver in 1979, the first official year of the title.
– Jean Vinatier, whose name is closely linked to the Etretat-based Alpine brand, with which he won the French championship in 1969, in addition to victory in the 1964 Tour de Corse, and 3rd place in the 1969 RAMC. His lifelong co-pilot Jean-François Jacob will be in the seat beside him.
