The Monte Carlo Rally (officially Rallye Automobile Monte Carlo) is a rally racing event organized each year by the Automobile Club de Monaco who also organize the F1 Grand Prix of Monaco and the Monaco Kart Cup. The race takes place along the French Riviera in the Principality of Monaco and southeast France.
From its inception in 1911 by Prince Albert I, this race, under difficult and demanding conditions, was an important means of testing the latest improvements and innovations to automobiles. Winning the race gave the car a great deal of credibility and publicity. Since 1973, the race has been held in January as the first race of the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile World Rally Championship, run over a 1,461 kilometer course in 15 different stages.
