Our friends at AUTOhebdo invite you to the KENNOL French Grand Prix of Historic F1, to meet the legends of Formula 1.
Impossible to start this edition without celebrating the godfather of AUTOhebdo at the French Historic F1 Grand Prix and ambassador Coyote, Philippe Alliot! The French driver with 109 Grand Prix starts made history with Larrousse-Calmels and represented McLaren. For an exceptional weekend, he becomes your exclusive guide for three days of rare intensity during the seventh edition of the KENNOL French Historic Grand Prix.
Emotion reached a new level with the presence of Charles Leclerc, rising star and current driver for Scuderia Ferrari. The Monegasque prodigy, in an unprecedented role, started the F1 race this Saturday. Offering a moment of pure magic, he mingled with a vibrant crowd, immersed in the unique atmosphere of Historic Competition Vehicles races.
And what about the return of another automotive sports giant, Alain Prost, four-time world champion! In a nostalgic moment, he took the wheel of his legendary McLaren from the 1987 season, reminding everyone of the glory of a discipline celebrating its 75th anniversary this year.
For the first time, Mark Webber, with nine victories in Formula 1, joined the celebration. The Australian was truly captivated by the unique atmosphere reigning at Circuit Paul-Ricard. Among dedicated enthusiasts, experts, and curious newcomers drawn to the world of historic vehicles, Webber found a true temple dedicated to motorsport love.
One of the most poignant moments of the event? Franck Montagny, with tears of emotion in his eyes, climbing back into the legendary Renault R25. This machine, born in Enstone, made history by clinching the world title with Fernando Alonso 20 years ago.
And what a thrill to hear the French V10 roar again on its homeland for a Marseillaise moment!
Finally, even without being a driver, Frédéric Vasseur, the iconic boss of Scuderia Ferrari, couldn’t miss this event. Reuniting warmly with the French motorsport community, of which he has been a part for over two decades, he added a touch of elegance and camaraderie to this grand event.
