29 January – 05 February 2020 <\/strong><\/p>\n

A tough nut to crack!<\/h2>\n

Three days only after the arrival of the 88thMonte-Carlo Rally, crews entered in the 23rd Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique will be faced with a very tough route as well: a succession of Regularity Stages (SR) where great stories where written, belonging to the legend of this prestigious event won 60 years ago by the Mercedes 220 SE (#128) of Walter Schock \/ Rolf Moll.<\/p>\n

This 2020 edition will be even more exciting, thanks to the dedicated Organizing Committee at Automobile Club de Monaco (ACM). The succession of Michel Badosa and Mogens Reidl, the winning crew last year in a Renault 8, is now open\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique can only accept cars entered in previous editions of the Monte-Carlo Rally between 1911 and 1980. And in order to allow all crews a chance to finish in a decent position, they will again have a choice, in 2020, between three average speeds to respect during the whole race.<\/p>\n

The start of this 23rd edition will be given on Wednesday January 29 for the first starts of the concentration leg, in Athens (1,715km\/12:40pm) and Glasgow (2,142km\/6pm). Then, on Friday January 31, other crews will depart from Bad Homburg(1,257km\/2pm), Milano (1,069km\/6pm), Barcelona (958km\/7pm), Reims (940km\/7pm) and Monte-Carlo (950km\/8pm) with a common destination: Buis-les-Baronnies, in the very heart of Dr\u00f4me Proven\u00e7ale, a rallying point that crews will reach on Saturday February 1 from 10:30am onwards. At that point, the concentration leg will not be over. It will end with the first two regularity stages, well-known by regular competitors of the event: Montauban-sur-l\u2019Ouv\u00e8ze \u2013 Saint-Andr\u00e9-de-Rosans \/ SR1 \/ 45km \/ 11:30am followed by La Motte-Chalancon \u2013 Saint-Nazaire-le-D\u00e9sert \/ SR2 \/ 17km \/ 1:10pm. The last checkpoint of the day is scheduled in Crest at 3pm, before rallying the host-city, Valence (Dr\u00f4me), where the first crews are expected on Champ de Mars from 3:55 pm onwards.<\/p>\n

On Sunday February 2, at 6:30am, the Classification Leg in Ard\u00e8che will start with La Croze \u2013 Antraigues-sur-Volane \/ SR3 \/ 57km \/ 7:50am, another classic stage with its finish line in front of the famous \u201cRemise\u201d, the mythical restaurant of the Jouanny family.

Heading for Vercors, the Ecrins Nature Park and the Diois area, the 1st Part of the Common Leg will start on Monday February 3 at 6:30am for what promises to be a very tough day on the road. The first Regularity Stage will be Col de Gaudissart \u2013 La Cime du Mas \/ SR7 \/ 18km \/ 8am followed by Les Noni\u00e8res \u2013 Chichilianne \/ SR8 \/ 19km \/ 9:50am, then a checkpoint on Place Roger Brachet in Mens (10:50am) before starting Saint-Michel-en-Beaumont \u2013 Corps \/ SR9 \/ 16km \/ 11:25am and eventually La Piarre \u2013 Establet \/ SR10 \/ 31km \/ 1:20pm.
