The candidates for the World Championship title of 1996 dominated the qualifying sessions of the Monaco Grand Prix: Michael Schumacher and Ferrari took pole position ahead of Damon Hill’s Williams and Jean Alesi’s Benetton. Weather forecast predicted rain for the race on Sunday but still no one could have guessed that this Monaco GP would go down in the Formula 1 history books with only three cars finishing the race. Hardly anyone took notice of the fact that Olivier Panis was fastest in Sunday’s warm up session with only little fuel in the tank of his Ligier JS43 Honda. But then the big rain came and flooded the track.

The famous principality of Monaco became the slippery slope of the year. The lap by lap report of the race reads like an accumulation of spins, accidents, collisions and broken suspensions. Before the end of the first laps five cars have crashed among them pole sitter Michael Schumacher in his Ferrari F310. Slipping and sliding continues and permanently reduces the number of running cars. Olivier Panis had started from 14th position on the grid but by mid race he is suddenly on a podium position. With a true sensation in sight the Frenchman switches to attack mode, overtakes both David Coulthard and Jean Alesi to win this incredible race. The first GP win for Ligier in 15 years.
