1998 World Rally Championship - Round 11 Rallye Sanremo

Round 11 of WRC 1998 was supposed to be have Rally Indonesia but due to civil unrest the event was dropped from the calendar which meant there was a 6 week gap between Round 10 Rally Finland and what was Round 12 now Round 11 Rallye Sanremo. Now Colin McRae had won the event from the previous 2 years 1997 when it was an all tarmac rally and 1996 when it was an mixed surface rally two days gravel 1 day tarmac. The flying Scotsman after non scoring in Finland last time out badly needed to make it a Sanremo threepeat but Mr Sainz and Mr Makinen would have ideas of their own to try and spoil McRae's gameplan.
