The Monaco Historic Grand Prix 2014 was held 9-11 May on the famous 3.34-km Monaco Grand Prix Circuit. The biennial Monaco Historics is considered as one of the top historic track events, as classic grand prix and sports cars race on the same track as the modern Formula One cars competing in the Monaco Grand Prix.
Organized by the Automobile Club de Monaco, the 9th Grand Prix de Monaco Historique was comprised of seven races, each tailored to provide spectators and participants the opportunity to relive the motorsport event that started on 14th April 1929.
Practice and qualifying sessions for the seven race groups took place on Friday 9th and Saturday 10th May and the races were held on Sunday 11th May. The races were 10-12 laps each, or a maximum of 30-35 minutes, with 18 laps or a maximum of 45 minutes for the more modern Formula 1 and Formula 3 races.
A feature of the 2014 race weekend was the Credit Suisse Historic Racing Forum, which saw former racing drivers Sir Stirling Moss, Derek Bell, Jochen Mass and Romain Dumas in a discussion about ‘Dream Circuits’. A series of further discussions and photo shoots followed, including reuniting Sir Stirling Moss with a Maserati 250 F – being run by American driver Tom Price – to mark the famous 1956 Monaco Grand Prix victory by Moss in a sister car.

Thank you, wish I was there.
Ronnie Peterson’s Lotus 76…….still does it for me. All these years later
I think it is Andretti´s Lotus 76. But Ronnie won the Italian GP at Monza in a March 761 in that year!
picture on page 5 is Peterson’s Lotus 76. The double rear wing.
The number 22 is Frank Williams Racing 1970 De Tomaso 505
“1963 Gurney Eagle 1F” ?? Maybe a 67 or 68?
1966 Chassis 101
John Player Special! Sweet
Tom Pryce…a priceless Welsh driver! (not PRICE as per article).
Agreed on Tom Pryce as a driver.
Tom Price, however, is a car collector that brought his Maserati 250F to Monaco.
