46:52 - Future legend Carlos Sainz on his 3rd WRC rally ever (he did Corsica and Portugal in 1987). The car he uses was sold/homologated in Valencia (V-plate) and it had mechanical problems in TWO national rallies in Spain, both around the Costa Brava area. Back in 1987, the superpopular Rally Costa Brava existed but was a mixed-surface long ERC+Spanish round (the winning time was over 5 hours 30 minutes).

Nice memories, however you forgot t say that Antonio Boto was his codriver, at the end of 88 season he began to run whit Another legend Luis Moya.

We were at the water splash and the Astra's suffered except for the one with the bonnet up which sailed through!!

[@julianowens4071]

Really grateful you’ve recorded these thank you

[@waynerafferty1048]

Sierra could not cope with the short wheelbase and 4 wheel drive lancia. And the footage here shows

[@noelmurray8052]

sadly they're ill equipped for rallying but I love seeing a big rwd sedan doing something it absolutely should not be doing

[@honeybutterlover]

That water splash!!!

[@150rents]

followed me and my mate loved it

[@sroc_rallyevideos]

I love it

[@Chris391971]

The water splash must have took out about 5 cars

[@dusankocisevic6823]

Do Anybody knows, what is the reason for Miki Biasion to skip the LAST RALLY of the season?!?! (leading the championship by some 16 points🙄🙄)

[@robertrishel3685]

Lancia😍😍😍😍😍

[@billglennon8586]

Subaru.. "not of course the outstanding car in oriental rallying...." Heh heh, just wait a bit....

[@paulcaswell2813]

But it took British development to make it work ;-)

[@fill7t1]

Don't understand why they moved the camera from the water splash. To behind a mound!

[@VHSRallies]

Yes, I never understood that either. Maybe the marshals were getting nervous about potentially being caught on camera falling over?!

[@fill7t1]

Well it's part and parcel of being a Marshall, if it's TV 33 years later your a star lol.

[@dkvperformance]

[@thiscocks]

Surely that Audi is more than 210hp!

[@hbtm2951]

Does sound too angry for only 210hp.

[@paultaylor5502]

195bhp we never got 210 bhp out of it

[@ianmangham4570]

Power to weight ratio,lightweight magnesium parts

[@thiscocks]

Why was Biason absent?

[@ddt3619]

7 drivers for Kankkunen, Alen and him, and he had all of his
