Rallye Sanremo 1985 | Group B [Passats de canto] (Telesport)

[@xXAlmdudlerXx]

When you thought you´ve seen every Group B clip on KZbin you find this gem. Awesome

[@mattiasinigaglia4980]

My god! For rally fans like me this video is like gold..so happy! Pure essence of rally..the cars, the people, the atmosphere were something that today is impossible to have in rallies today! People loved all this but unfortunately this is no longer the case. Thanks for this video and the others on this channel

[@purwantiallan5089]

I also loving the sound of these legendary rally cars.

[@jeffreypostma6832]

This video is absolute gold! An amazing time capsule to mid 80s rallying. No need for background music or commentary!

[@redlineste4283]

Bring back Group B and the awesome 80's rally cars.

[@lyonhaert4107]

[@adamhousden6349]

Bring back group B you mean, could you imagine what these manic machines would be like now.....I think group B being as popular now as it was then would have caused F1 to have not such a big following, love those Quattro's best cars in the field in my own opinion.....I owned 2 Quattro's from '85 and '86, then stayed with audi from then

[@Chriis2A]

Bring Back The Tour De Corse too

[@geoundici]

I've seen tons of rally videos, but the 205 moving the dust at 7:41 ...... Gravel specs on tarmac is always a pleasure to see. Pure rallying.

[@tonyv7660]

So much iconic footage used in MANY rallye videos come from this event. Should be preserved forever.

It was so boring on YT this days, and this absolutely marvellous video just cure my depression.

[@Yormsane]

So much great footage here, thank you for the upload! Walter Rohrl somehow wrestling that clumsy Audi to victory over a field of Peugeots and Lancias, the Opel Mantas slipping further and further behind the pace, and an almost forgotten Group B car from that era - the Citroen Visa.

[@marcwagner9369]

Citroen visa mille piste 💪👍

[@paulcaswell2813]

Walter had been practicing, practicing, practicing. Despite the handful of the Audi, provided the Quattro kept going, there was only going to be one winner of the event. Audi's final rally victory. I actually have an original Audi poster from this rally on a wall at home :-)

[@RJCanalRallye]

The only victory for the Audi Quattro Sport E2, the most spectacular rally car in history !!! 💥 Thank you very much for this video 🙏 The best review I've seen of this iconic rally.

[@mclarenf1gtr99]

Nah, It was a 4WD understeery boat. I think best rally car in history was the Stratos, and in Group B, it was the Peugeot. Audi was great when it was the only decent 4WD on the grid.

[@RJCanalRallye]

@@mclarenf1gtr99 I agree with you. That's why I didn't say the Audi was the best car. I said it was the most spectacular car to watch, because it looked and sounded incredible!

[@Barkevshadian]

85 Sanremo and RAC, my all time favorite Rallies.

[@paolorossi3823]

I piloti di rally sono invincibili !!!

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

I watched this with such delight. The golden age of rally and for me the 037 is the sexiest rally car ever!

[@paulcaswell2813]

I followed the 1985 RAC Rally, hoping to see the 037's swansong. Can you believe I was disappointed when I saw the new S4s! Memories of Henri coming through Sutton Park (one of the opening stages) with half the front missing. Little did we know he was on his way to victory...

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

​@@paulcaswell2813S4 is a monster but I would also rather see 037 in action.

[@fordgalaxie3726]

The Lancia looks sexy, but the sound of the Audi is electrifying!

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

@@fordgalaxie3726 I agree!

[@stevensofroniou]

Your videos are simply the best 👌🏻👏🏻 the group B cars were the best era raw mechanical power as opposed to a computer on wheels like the 2023 cars I mean packed with tech even electronic centre diffs ! I used to rally a 6R4 and count myself lucky to be able to not only drive one but win 14 rallies and a championship in 1990 !

[@testicat8462]

Christ the photographers in that one street had me sweating every time lmao like they missed the cars by millimeters

[@Skumtomten1]

I have tears in my eyes, this is incredible footage.

[@purwantiallan5089]

These rally cars in the past are still a pleasure to watch and drive. And these Group B Rally Cars are still sounded brilliantly even in 2023.

[@soffosbackan]

Sport quattro group B is the best sounding car to this day! BMW E30 M3 DTM in second place!

[@micheleprontelli8800]

Video dell'anno! Che bell'atmosfera che si respira. GRAZIE PER AVERLO CONDIVISO

[@BluCobalto]

atmosfera di quando i rally erano un'avventura di migliaia di km, si disputavano in ogni condizione di giorno e di notte. Il penultimo anno di una grande epoca.

[@Stu49583]

I am quite convinced that rally Group B driver were the most skilled motorsport drivers ever. The reason is this: making a mistake cost not just their lives but possibly 20 others. Don't discount that pressure to make huge growth in skills.

[@aaardyyy]

Thank you for uploading this! So great to see the finns in Lancia roadside service. Kiitos!

[@jrortigosa1]

Yo llegué a ver a las bestias estas, y es algo que después de 40 años no olvidas. La primera curva de un mundial no se olvida nunca, y te das cuenta que los rallyes que has visto hasta ese momento, quedan a años luz de estas bestias. Esa época fue loquísima, no solo por los coches, sino por la gente que iba a ver los rallyes, aunque hubo varios accidentes, con muertos, no se como no pasaban muchos más accidentes. Como vemos la gente se colocaba en la trayectoria, y allí nadie decía nada. Me acuerdo un tramo nocturno en el Rallye de Portugal en la zona de Oporto que yo estaba deseando que acabara porque entre el alcohol del vino de Oporto y las hogueras en el monte, aquello era un despelote. Cuando finalizó el tramo nos volvimos a España, estabamos saturados. Mi coche preferido era el Lancia 037, para mi el coche más bonito de rallyes de la historia, pero todos eran alucinantes. Al Audi S2 le costaba ir recto cdo aceleraba, y el morro subía y subía, es la aceleración más bestial que ha habido en los mundos de los rallyes. El Peugeot era el más equilibrado de todos, iba bien en todas las superficies. Hasta que apareció el Lancia S4, y dejó a todo el mundo alucinado. El sonido de su compresor era hipnótico, pero llegó lo que todos sabemos y se acabó esa locura. Algunos tuvimos la suerte de disfrutarlo.

[@Udmudmudm]

Io abito vicino a Sanremo ma con gli amici andavano a vedere il rally in Toscana, le strade sterrate erano fantastiche, hai ragione, abbiamo visto cose che non vedremo mai più....Bello il video, all'arrivo non andavamo mai, tornavamo dalla Toscana stravolti e polverosi 😂 👋👋

[@jordigilgarcia6141]

@@jordigilgarcia6141 No me envidies... ahora soy un poco viejito, medio ciego, medio sordo, con diabetes, sobreviviente de un infarto... ¡Soy yo quien te envidia a ti que eres joven! Y me gustaría señalar que en aquella época sólo los ricos podían hacer algunas películas en super 8, sólo hacíamos fotografías, el coche con cámara era ciencia ficción... ¡Ahora al menos en KZbin puedes ver algunas películas preciosas en alta definición! ¡Un saludo sincero desde Italia!

Amazing Video quality, and so fun seeing Marku Alen speaking Italian despite the Finnish cadence standing out like a sore thumb.

[@paulcaswell2813]

Markku was nicknamed 'the Italian Finn'. After so many years at Fiat and Lancia, it's no surprise that the Italian language was second nature to him!

[@ricardosolergarcia2220]

Yo tuve la suerte de ver estas máquinas con 7 y 8 años en el europeo cuando el Costa Blanca puntuaba para el mismo, y creo que nunca he podido encontrar un adjetivo para definir que era ver, oler y oír esos aparatos por el tramo. Era imposible no volverse adicto a los rallys después de ver ese espectáculo brutal.

[@B1S1O]

Wonderful video, thanks as always Passats de Canto; consideration, absurd how people didn't move until the last moment to take a photo, today all stages would be cancelled; today's instagrammers are nothing compared to these, they risked their lives in a few seconds. Late 80s perhaps the best ever for rallies

[@paulcaswell2813]

Early to mid '80s were the Group B days ;-)

It was an honour to have been around during this era of rallying. Simply the greatest years of the sport. In 1980 Escorts were still competitive. By the end of 1985 we had the Delta S4: unbelievable pace of development.

[@FrancescoCorsini-mr8gj]

Ho vissuto il San Remo dal 1979 al 1986, abitando in Toscana le prove speciali erano praticamente sotto casa. La festa iniziava un mese prima, quando i piloti venivano a fare le ricognizioni. Notti passate sulle strade sterrate nella speranza di trovare qualche pilota a provare le speciali. Una sera intercettammo Biasion in un ristorante di un paesino nel Chianti. Parlammo con lui una ventina di minuti, poi si offrì di portare uno di noi a fare qualche centinaia di metri nella 037 come passeggero. Per evitare la rissa, fu concesso l'onore all'unica ragazza presente. Quando tornò era bianca come un lenzuolo, con gli occhi sbarrati e appena scesa di macchina vomito'. Immagino cosa avesse provato in quei 5 minuti... Un'altra sera trovammo il team Lancia in un albergo alla periferia di Siena. C'era la 037 di Biasion e sopra ad un carrello una S4 coperta da un telo perchè ancora non era stata presentata ufficialmente. Erano venuti a fare l'assetto della S4 sullo sterrato. Parlammo per più di un'ora con Biasion, l'ing. Lombardi e Tiziano Siviero, una serata indimenticabile. La mattina dopo sveglia all'alba e tutti a Monte San Savino fino a sera a vedere Biasion con l'S4. Un privilegio e uno spettacolo unico. Eventi oggi inimmaginabili, che nostalgia!!!!

[@r3b3ld3_one]

Yo viví con mucha intensidad y pasión los grupoB y posterior WRC, la f1 cuando el duelo era entre Prost y Senna, a Pons y Crivillé encima de las motos, las copas en el urbano de Alcañiz (inolvidable esto) con J.Fernandez y su barqueta o Goiburu con el e30. A día de hoy nada de esto me interesa, ni lo más mínimo, los rallys sin público es como una sin, la f1 son una panda de millonarios en coches que casi se conducen solos y gana el que más gaste en coche etc, no quiero seguir, me atraganto.

[@Saarngittik1967]

Without any doubt, Group B was for men while today WRC is for boys !!

[@nightowlrally]

Neat! So Herr Röhl was driving the prototype sequential Quattro (note the little button on the gear selector at 1:17)

[@helgelippert1970]

That button on the gearstick was for the automatic clutch. It called "Sachsomat". Press the button, the clutch disengaged, shift the gear, take the finger from the button and the clutch is engaged again. The gearbox itself was the normal H-pattern 5 or 6 speed gearbox. You mean probably the Porsche double clutch gearbox. Audi installed this gearbox just two times during official ralley´s and that was at the german Semperit Rallye and the British WRC. Walter Röhrl was both times the driver. Some footage from the Semperit rallye -> kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHeolXyrarNmppI
