Rauno Aaltonen and Paddy Hopkirk are paying a visit to the twisting roads of the Côte d'Azur, where they celebrated their greatest victories on the Rallye Monte Carlo in 1964, '65 and '67.
Different to the Sixties, this time the duo drive a brand new MINI John Cooper Works Cabrio. The car and the tricky corners bring back fond memories for the pair, of go-kart like handling and driving excitement.
You can see the rally legends driving through the Alps surrounding Monte Carlo, passing such famous places as the Col de Braus and Col de Turini.
