The Alpine Rally

July 7, 2014

This year’s event proved exceptionally difficult and until the organisers decided to cancel the results of two of the timed sections no crews had retained a clean sheet, which is required to qualify for a Coupe des Alpes. After this only seven of the 55 entries won Alpine Cups, these being:
Consten/de Lageneste (Alfa Romeo Giulietta Zagato)
Clarou/Gele (Alfa Romeo Giulietta Berlina)
Riesa/Wenscher (Alfa Romeo Giulietta Berlina)
Balisst/Bertaut (Triumph TR3)
Harrison/Habershon (Ford Zephyr)
Harper/Jopp (Sunbeam Rapier)
Shepherd/Williamson (Austin-Healey Six)

Altogether 23 cars completed the whole Rally route, but the rest were all severely penalised.
