Monaco’s motorsport roots date back to 1911 when Prince Albert I inaugurated the Rallye Monte-Carlo. Then, in 1929, a little car race around the streets of Monte Carlo became the Monaco Grand Prix, although it did not join the Formula One calendar until its inaugural season began in 1950. Yet women were driving motorsport in Monaco long before the Grand Prix circuit, winning the Coupe des Dames and Concours d’Elegance as early as the 1920s.
