Vom 13. bis 15. Mai 2022 fand in Monte Carlo der Grand Prix Monaco Historique statt, bei dem in acht Rennen mit Wagen aus acht Epochen um den Sieg gestritten wurde.

Der monegassische Rundkurs hat es in sich und so führt diese Bildergeschichte den Leser durch eine Runde der Grand-Prix-Rennstrecke. Dabei soll der Humor nicht zu kurz kommen, aber mehr soll nicht verraten werden über die Fortsetzungsgeschichte in 60 Bildern.
