Despite the cold and windy weather this morning The Monte-Carlo Rally started without issue and all drivers are successfully on their way. We wish all the drivers taking part safe travels and hope they enjoy every moment of the rally to Monaco🇲🇨. It has been an honour to be involved in such a special moment in motoring history.
