Stuart Hall and Michael Lyons further expanded their Monaco trophy cabinets, each claiming two more top honours at this year's Grand Prix Historique. Hall took wins in races E and G, Lyons in races D and F, thereby jointly claiming a clean sweep of the Formula 1 eras from 1966 to 1985. The excitement in this year's races was slightly underwhelming, as with the exception of two, they were all dominated from start to finish by the man that started on pole. Joe Colasacco fought his way up from fourth place to take the win in Grid B for 1.5-litre F1 cars, whilst Patrick Blakeney-Edwards was handed victory in the pre-war race on a plate when his rival Richard Bradley's Maserati ground to a halt in the very last corner – otherwise Bradley too would have joined the ranks of pole-to-win victors.
