Last Minute News of the Monte Carlo Rally.
Last Minute News of the Monte Carlo Rally.
TRUE to the traditions of motoring events, a great rush of entries for the Rally came in on the eve of the closing date, and the time limit was extended to ensure that no last-minute nominations should be missed. As a result the organisers expect a record entry of about 140.
Below is given the last official list available, together with some further names the particulars of which are not yet definite.
Lord De Clifford and his companions drove down to Brindisi and took ship to Athens, as had been arranged. They were able to get as far as the Bulgarian frontier, and found that it was possible almost to maintain the average of 25 m.p.h. required over the worst section of the roads.
The route through Bulgaria is said to possess a better surface, and it should be possible to regain lost time on this part. The British drivers starting from Athens are all experienced Rally competitors and should give a good account of themselves.
