61 years and Denis is still doing it! What's 55-yo John Kennard thinking of retiring for?

Also does that mean no Dumas Porsche 911 this year?

Very cold nights till Thursday (-12..-16 on the stages) a few minus degrees during days.. sarting from Friday, a few pluss degrees in sunshine, and minus in shade So, a lot of snow around, that means a lot of black ice when daily melting water freezes.. proper Monte. No hope for additional snow right now, but snow is there already. I expect they clean larger roads and smaller ones will be very slippery and snowy and cuts and spectators pulling snow on the road. So, first on the road should be the place to be

first on the road also means that you are the first to encounter the black ice without any notice...

Gravel crew should notice it But there is noone noticing when first driver cuts corners and drags fresh snow on pure asphalt

"Little by little, I become aware of the approaching deadline. What we were talking about in the future now combines with the present! Every day, we exchange a lot with the engineers, about every detail related to my car. Nothing is left to chance and it is really fascinating to be at the heart of this official team. For this first rally with this status, I will aim to play placed and score a maximum of points for Citroën. I think I still have a running deficit with the C3 WRC and I do not want to burn the stages. I must first take the measure of the car in race conditions before fetching the limit. I think we are all in the same situation, with a lot of unknown in all areas. "

"I will probably be the driver with the least pressure this weekend! I am satisfied to start my season at the wheel of an old car, because I do not have much experience at Monte Carlo. This participation will give me the opportunity to learn this rally. It will also be an opportunity to see the gap between the two generations of World Rally Cars. My priority is to accumulate miles, but I will also be satisfied if I manage to score a few points. Perhaps they will be useful at the end of the season. "

Can I ask - the route from Nice to Gap from the airport, good highways? Easy navigation and not much bad weather meaning no ice on roads or snow? Closer to Gap maybe... I will be driving between 6pm and 10pm arriving in Gap on Tuesday... wish me luck!

Take direct A8 D3 A51 at this time.

There is nothing to see at night at N85 N202 and you will drive back that road most likely.

With Breen driving a '16 WRC it will be interesting to see how his times compare to the '17 cars...
