This is a huge logistical challenge for the team and staff at Automobile Club de Monaco, for all major players and authorities of the Principality of Monaco, as well as for the 3,000 volunteers – among them 650 stewards and track marshals – whose role will be crucial for the success of the three events.

« To organize three races in the space of one month will be a premiere for us all at ACM », explains Christian Tornatore, the General Commissioner of Automobile Club de Monaco. « The logistical side promises to be complex, but not impossible to manage! Because of the new constraints, we shall need to start setting up the track earlier than usual, at the end of February, instead of March 15. We will then integrate the technical aspects, on and around the track, required by every category that will be involved. In order to achieve this, we will count on the experience and flexibility of all the persons involved, in order to achieve our objectives …»

Last but not least, please note that the next edition of Grand Prix de Monaco Historique, the 13th of the series, will take place from May 13 to 15, 2022…
