this is the irony of life...many people want to be famous and don't make it, Walter Rohl didn't want to be famous and he became a legend!

One of the greatest segments in topgear.....a wonderfull story about what Lancia is all about
@zeroelus Жыл бұрын
I re-watch it every so often. My favorite segment in Grand Tour by quite a bit. A shame about the current state of Lancia, and makes me want a yellow 5 cyl Audi every time, which of course I can't afford haha.

Walter Röhrl is my hero. He won Monte Carlo on four different cars. Even his decision to just do 6 races is the move of a real bad ass.

Amusing anecdote: When a man sees this, he almost forgets that Hannu Mikkola won the Rally Championship that year with Audi. While Clarkson and Röhrl explain how a car fits "like a shoe," the picture reveals that the winner of the San Remo rally was Alen with his Lancia. Röhrl finished more than 2 minutes behind him. Nevertheless, Lancia secured the manufacturer's championship.

the only reason Hannu Mikkola (audi) won the drivers title is because Walter rohrl only did 6 races (out of 12 races total) ,,,,,,,,if walter even did 2 more races he would have had driver title as well

@@engdatum Of course, mere participation is not enough. Röhrl skipped rallies where he was not quite in his comfort zone. He wouldn't necessarily have gotten a result even by participating. I remember that year well.

difficulties make you smarter, Italy is a difficult country if you are Italian, if you live in other eu country having everything easily the only thing you can have is the false belief that you are the best, The Italians were and are very mocked by the Germans, so at that point an Italian starts thinking night and day how to deflate the Germans' balloons. and when an Italian humiliates a German he does it in such a way that the German can no longer forget.
