    There was drama at the Monaco Historique where veteran driver Jean Alesi was taken out by Marco Werner. Alesi was leading the 1973-76 F1 era car race and holding off a determined second placed Werner. But with just three laps remaining Werner's Lotus 77 ran into the back Alesi's Ferrari 312B3, ending Alesi's race and putting Werner into the lead.

    Alesi casually standing on the track at 2:55 with no helmet as the other cars blast past him is the most vintage F1 thing about this entire video.

      Dont want to say Alesi is a bad driver, nor do I want to say that I could do better, but in this case he missed probably a gear, so he was slowing down and the Lotus was so close behind him, he had little to no reaction time. When you see the onboards of Alesi, you see him struggle a few times with the gearbox.
      Again, dont want to say Alesi is a bad driver. Could have also been the gearbox itself that was not happy for some reason, like too hot oil temperature, or mechanical error.

      If they're stuck 3 seconds behind then they're not fast enough to catch the car in front, at 3 seconds the slipstream is more valuable than the loss in downforce, that's why they have 2-3 second gaps when they tow at Monza/Spa for example.

    My heart broke watching the end of this - but I'm still not convinced Werner took him out. For Jean to spin like that + the damage received on the Lotus' nose, something must have happened to the Ferrari. They were both accelerating, at this point a couple of seconds after the corner - the Ferrari also had more power as it was pulling away from the Lotus on the straight lap after lap. Did Jean's car breakdown, or did he miss a gear? There is no reason as to why the Lotus would suddenly close up at that point - and certainly didn't have the power to "load up" the Ferrari.
    They were racing very close - would love to see another angle.

      And for Alesi this sums up his F1 career. Full of promise and nothing to show for it.

      There wasn't anyway Werner could avoid the accident. So that's why I feel sorry for him.
      If Werner wasn't there Alesi would of lost alot of time to Werner that lap.

      @@V8HiluxZX6R I watched this thrilling battle live on tv - the Marco Werner JPS was nearly 2 seconds faster in qualifying than Jean Alessi's Ferrari however Jean blasted off at the start and took the lead at the 1st corner. Marco then spent 15 laps trying to pass Jean at every opportunity. Two of the better attempts were stopped by Jean placing his car in the right place, other Marco attempts were in places where it was impossible to pass and nearly hitting the Ferrari on several occasions - on one occasion he did hit the Ferrari. Marco appeared to get really desperate to pass Jean knowing he had a much faster car. I thought that he simply misjudged how fast he was gaining on the Ferrari as they left La Rasscase and his nose went under the Ferraris gearbox lifting the rear wheels causing them to spin up (black lines on the track) before the Ferrari slewed to the right and into the wall. I thought it was entirely Marco Werners fault and his "surprise" and being given a penalty for punting the leader off the track was amazing and then his attitude on the rostrum wasnt good. Lyons was that far behind I dont know how he thought that Marco was "the real winner". Gutted for Jean who hadnt driven that car before and was a class act.

    Pretty obvious to see that Alesi missed a shift (or had whatever problem out of the blue) - Marco was completely hit by surprise. No intention at all.

      Wrong he was rear hit. Maybe no intention but still...

      Fortnite Player iOS - I never said, Alesi wasn't rear hit. My point is: Throughout the entire race, Marco wasn't able to follow the Ferrari on the main straight due to a lack of Cosworth power vs the Ferrari 's prancing horses. So which afterburner could Marco have ignited to all of a sudden have that much excess speed? Alesi must have had a problem - technically or human mistake.

    Alesi missing a gear and being tagged by the closing following Lotus of Werner is hardly being 'taken out', more a 'racing incident'. Was the inaccurate title 'click bait'? Great racing though!
