It\u2019s the month of May, which can signify but two things in the motor racing world, the Indy 500 and the Monaco Grand Prix. While we pay tribute to Indy this month with an intriguing history of A.J. Foyt\u2019s Coyote Indy cars, recognition of the Monaco Grand Prix ended up accidentally falling to me\u2014fortunately enough!<\/p>\n

At the time of writing this, I found myself in snowy England for the International Historic Motorsport Show. (As a result of this annual show, I seem to be one of the few tourists who \u201cvoluntarily\u201d travels to the U.K. in February each year\u2026brrr!) With the show over and a few days to kill before my flight home, our European editor, Ed McDonough, suggested that we could catch a cheap flight to Nice, France. When Ed said cheap he meant CHEAP\u2014how about $40?! So without needing much prodding, Ed and I found ourselves soon whisking our way to the Cote d\u2019Azur and, more importantly, the automotive holy land that is Monaco.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
