My fellow countrymen: Mikkola, Alen, Vatanen. The best of the best. Disclaimer: Brooks and Gaby performed well also. Never liked swedes..Eklund was somehow sympathetic, though. 😁

Excellent coverage of REAL rallying... As well as the motivation issue with Walter Rohrl, there was also a political/ethical issue, as He doesn't smoke, & avoided promoting Rothmans (other than actual driving); this probably hastened his departure from the Rothmans/Opel team; He went on to drive for Martini Lancia in 1983.

The 1980s were so special, it felt special at the time, almost like a dream. English presenters used to rely on content, and the raw coverage had no other motives but to convey the pure excitement of motorsport. We were very lucky. I am grateful to those great men who built a white-hot technological era that burned too bright, and will never be equalled.

4 wd Audies beating all the two wheel drive cars...feckin amazing. Then ofcourse when Peugoet and Lanci brought out their 4 wd cars Audi kept losing and then fecked off. They've milked this period for decades and really set them up for who they are now always masters of managing the regulations to their advantage...clever lads and lasses but a little cynical.
