Overview

Event Name: 2015 Rallye Monte-Carlo

Date: January 22–25, 2015

Start Location: Monte Carlo, Monaco

Finish Location: Monte Carlo, Monaco

Total Distance: 1,309 km (355 km competitive)

The season began with a classic Monte mix — dry tarmac, snow, and black ice in the French Alps. Tire strategy once again played a decisive role.

Route

Col de Turini: Legendary hairpins with snowbanks and ice patches.
Col de l'Orme: Narrow alpine roads with sheer drops.
Gap Region: Mixed-surface challenges requiring quick adaptation.

Day-to-day weather swings meant crews had to commit to tire calls hours before stages began, often gambling with results.
