ROBIN RICHARDS from Monte Carlo reports on the second stage of the Rally and talks to crews returning from the 24-hour classification test
The Rally proper began last night with a twenty-four-hour classification test over mountain roads and tracks in the French Alps. There are nineteen stages which have to be covered at a set average speed; and in addition to this there are nine special time-sections which are in fact races against the clock, every second taken counting towards penalty marks. The sixty least penalised competitors are then eligible to take part in the final phase of the Rally starting on Thursday night.
