Do the French call this event le Prix Grand?


Bravo! A complete list of winners & chassis, even a race summary (if somebody can finish them...). It's a model all the racing pages should use. Just 1 complaint: what was the race date? Also, a minor quibble: I've seen Boillot's 1912 & 1913 winners described as Lion-Peugeots. Comment? Trekphiler 12:17, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

"Lion-Peugeot" was Peugeot's official team during those years. Like Ferrari and Scuderia Ferrari for example. Woodcote (talk) 19:22, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] 1949 Grand Prix

"Grand Prix de l'ACF" was the former name of the French Grand Prix. But in 1949, there was a "Grand Prix de l'ACF" and a "Grand Prix de France". The "Grand Prix de l'ACF", won by Charles Pozzi, was a sports car race held in St-Gaudens. And the French Grand Prix (won by Louis Chiron) was a Formula 1 race held in Reims. So, the only winner we should mention is the winner of the Formula 1 race. That's why i reverted the last edit. Woodcote (talk) 19:22, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
