  • 1968 Monte Carlo Rally – First Victory in the 911
    1968 Monte Carlo Rally – first victory in the 911 The Porsche 911 took three consecutive wins in the Monte Carlo Rally, with Vic Elford and David Stone delivering the first of these victories in 1968. In an ideal development for Porsche, the 1968 Monte Carlo Rally was the first to be subject to new rules that removed restrictions relating to cubic capacity classes and the use of professional and amateur drivers. The system applied as of that year boiled down to a single maxim: fastest car wins! Another factor that was markedly different to previous years was the weather. The 37th Monte Carlo Rally was held in almost spring-like temperatures, with these mild conditions extending up into the mountains. The teams demanded racing tyres, but the available stocks proved insufficient. This led to additional tyres featuring a soft mixture, little tread and no spikes being flown in by the tyre manufacturers via Nice and transported to the special tests. While the French driver Gérard Larrousse dominated the early stages of this edition of the Monte Carlo Rally in his Renault Alpine 1300, Vic Elford and David Stone bided their time in the 911 S 2.0 and waited for an opening. The ‘night of the long knives’, which was open to the sixty fastest teams, initially saw Larrousse further extend his lead before Elford hit back. Completing the special test at the Col de la Couillole nearly a minute faster than the Alpine, he duly raced into the lead. The final tests then saw the top drivers take even greater risks.

  • Matra Djet 5S 1965
    Matra Djet 5S 1965 Gallerij +32 (0)53 63 12 33 www.marreyt.com [email protected] Matra Djet 5S 1965 In the beginning of the sixties, two French-built Merk Matra competition cars were dominating the racing scene: the Alpine A110 in rally-sport and the Deutsch Bonnet / Matra Djet in road racing. Model Djet 5S Although they excelled both in their separate disciplines, for the main public they were direct competitors. The first Bonnet-only (formerly Bouwjaar 1965 Bonnet was partnered with Deutsch = DB sports cars) built sports car was the 1962 Djet, based on years of racing experience in Le Mans. Its mid-engined concept gave a road behaviour and weight distribution that were unequaled at that time. Unfortunately the Djet was so expensive to produce that Bonnet went bankrupt in 1964. The Matra (Mécanique Aviation TRAction) company was founded in 1945 with a core business in military plane manufacturing, aerospace applications and the processing of all sorts of plastics. It was in this last branch, they manufactured the glassfibre body shells for René Bonnet cars and when Bonnet went bankrupt, Matra took over the rights to build sports cars. From then on the Djet was further improved and several Djet (later renamed Jet) evolutions followed. Matra's racing experience, Formula 1-2-3 successes and their strong marketing machine made sure that Matra reached the Paris jet set: it became a must-have for the rich and the famous (Joeri Gagarin owned one). Even the French Gendarmerie owned several cars to patrol the autoroute du soleil! Needless to say, the Matra Djet is a beautifully engineered and highly successful little sports car, enjoying a strong appreciation by sports car connoisseurs which is translated in a steadily increasing value.

ALPINE: A HISTORY OF MEN IX. ALPINE PRODUCTION IN FIGURES X. SOME TITLES WON BY ALPIN 1 Confidential C I. A RENAULT ‘FAMILY’ Jean Rédélé was the first-born son of Madeleine Prieur and Emile Rédélé, a Renault dealer based in Dieppe and a former mechanic of Ferenc Szisz – the first Renault Frères ‘factory driver’, winner of the Grand Prix de la Sarthe in 1906 at Le Mans and runner-up in the Grand Prix de l'A.C.F. in Dieppe in 1907. Louis Renault himself had hired Emile Rédélé right at the beginning of the 20th Century. At the end of the First World War, at the request of Louis Renault, the young Emile Rédélé settled in Dieppe and opened a Renault dealership there in rue Thiers. Two years later, Jean-Emile- Amédée Rédélé was born on May 17, 1922. After completing his studies in Normandy, Jean Rédélé took his Baccalauréat exam during the Second World War and came into contact with people as diverse as Antoine Blondin, Gérard Philipe and Edmond de Rothschild. He chose to be a sub-prefect before settling on a career direction and enrolling at the H.E.C.
