The Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance was held last Sunday, with 209 of the most celebrated examples of automotive art displayed on the 18th fairway of Pebble Beach Golf Course, just outside Monterey in California. The competing cars had travelled from 17 countries and 31 states for the event, though the audience had come from much further afield for Monterey Car Week in general, and the most famous automotive concours event in the world.

The Concours was being held for the 68th time, and the growth in prestige of the event from its humble beginnings has spawned a number of ancillary events that have made it even more important to the luxury and collectible car industries.

The first auction held alongside the Concours was in 1986, with the first official Pebble Beach Concours auction held in 1990. With six auctions in three days, Pebble Beach is the now the single most important collectible car auction cluster on the planet, this year selling 1,341 collectible cars worth $368 million.

The Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance has also grown to become one of the most important new car shows in the world from its original showing of 30 vintage cars in 1950. Between Friday's Quail and Sunday's Concept Lawn at the Pebble Beach concours, the showing of new uber-exclusive automobiles now rivals the major car shows in Paris/Frankfurt, Geneva and Tokyo for elite model releases and the first public showings of concept cars. There are even private showings of forthcoming models, as no single other event draws this many ultra high net worth automotive enthusiasts together in one place. This year Automobili Pininfarina had its new PF0 available for viewing by people with the right credentials, and there were certain to have been more such private viewings discretely hidden away within a few miles of Monterey.

WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca was born in 1957 after a death at the Pebble Beach Road Races in 1956. It is now home to the Rolex Motorsports reunion every year during Monterey Car Week. The Pebble zBeach Concours d'Elegance began as a support event for the Pebble Beach Road Races in 1950.
WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca was born in 1957 after a death at the Pebble Beach Road Races in 1956. It is now home to the Rolex Motorsports reunion every year during Monterey Car Week. The Pebble zBeach Concours d'Elegance began as a support event for the Pebble Beach Road Races in 1950.

Simultaneously, the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion races held at the nearby WeatherTech (Laguna Seca) Raceway were once the main event. Look closely at the posters below and you'll see that the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance began in 1950 as a sideshow to the Sports Car Club of America's (SCCA) annual "Del Monte Trophy" road races, run over a 2.1-mile (3.4-km) course on the narrow tree-lined public roads of Pebble Beach. The concours is mentioned in much smaller print on the posters.

The races ran until 1956 when American motorsport pioneer Ernie McAfee hit a tree and died during the races, and everything changed. The Concours became a stand-alone event, and local government provided public land for a purpose-built racing circuit so that motorsport could continue as part of Monterey's automotive celebration.

The site for the new racetrack was a dry lake bed about five miles inland, and the far right poster above shows the continuity of the event in 1957 at Laguna Seca (the evaporated lakebed retained its long-standing Spanish name – Laguna Seca means "dry lagoon"). Laguna Seca is now on the calendar of many world championship racing series, and most American championship series.

As each successive year has played out, the Concours has grown in sophistication and incrementally staked a claim to its current significant role in celebrating automotive history.

The 17th and 18th holes of the Pebble Beach Golf Course have been the home of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance since the mid-1950s

The event raised $1.8 million this year, and those funds will go via the Pebble Beach Company Foundation, the primary charitable partner ofthe Concours, to local charities, impacting the lives of more than 10,000 children each year in Monterey County.

The 69th Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance returns to its usual third Sunday of August next year; it takes place on Sunday, August 18, 2019,and will celebrate the centennials of Bentley and Zagato.

Best of Show

The Best In Show Award at the 2018 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance was won by this 1937 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B Touring Berlinetta owned by David and Ginny Sydorick.
The Best In Show Award at the 2018 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance was won by this 1937 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B Touring Berlinetta owned by David and Ginny Sydorick.

When the panel of judges had meticulously examined the assembled 209 cars, the Best of Show ribbon was placed on the 1937 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B Touring Berlinetta of longtime entrant David Sydorick of Beverly Hills, California.

In addition to the ultimate Pebble Beach award, David's Alfa Romeo won its class and took home two other awards: the Charles A. Chayne Trophy and the J. B. & Dorothy Nethercutt Most Elegant Closed Car. Demonstrating that it is possible to significantly improve an automotive classic, this car was awarded the "Most Elegant Closed Car" at the 2001 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, but since Sydorick's acquisition, it has undergone a full restoration.

Indeed, this car has quite a history as the star of the show, having been the show car at the 1937 Paris Auto Salon, then the 1937 Milan Auto Show and then the 1938 Berlin Motor Show. The restoration saw it returned to its 1938 Berlin Motor Show specification.

The Best of Show crown boiled down to three contenders, with those that narrowly missed out being a 1929 Duesenberg J Murphy Town Limousine from the Lehrman Collection of Palm Beach, Florida, and a 1948 Talbot-Lago T26 Grand Sport Figoni Fastback Coupé (above) owned by Robert Kudela of Chropyne, Czech Republic.

Mike Hanlon
Mike grew up thinking he would become a mathematician, accidentally started motorcycle racing, got a job writing road tests for a motorcycle magazine while at university, and became a writer. As a traveling photojournalist during his early career, his work was published in a dozen languages across 20+ countries. He went on to edit or manage over 50 print publications, with target audiences ranging from pensioners to plumbers, many different sports, many car and motorcycle magazines, with many more in the fields of communication - narrow subject magazines on topics such as advertising, marketing, visual communications, design, presentation and direct marketing. Then came the internet and Mike managed internet projects for Australia's largest multimedia company, Telstra.com.au (Australia's largest Telco), Seek.com.au (Australia's largest employment site), top100.com.au, hitwise.com, and a dozen other internet start-ups before founding New Atlas in 2002. Now he writes and thinks.
