1987 Tour de Corse Documentary (On the road again)

[@F40Sean]

Huge fan of the Ford works team from the late 1970s as a schoolboy onwards. I owned various RS Fords from when I learned to drive in the late 1980s onwards inspired by my love of the works competition cars from the MkII Escort onwards. Especially interesting to me is this video as it features the Sierra RS Cosworth 3dr, a road going example of which I owned and cherished myself in the 1990s, one of the most recognised and legendary sporting cars in British motoring history. So pleased to have found this channel, I think I have many hundreds of pleasurable hours of viewing the superb content ahead of me - particularly from the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s the golden ages in my humble opinion.

Always a wonderful surprise when VHS Rallies posts a video! Never a disappointment!

[@justinhearst]

Please upload more of these documentaries man. History of Rallies must be told.

[@johngillis6393]

Great documentary, thanks again for sharing. Interesting to see that an RS1700T was still lurking around at Boreham in '87...

[@AFExploration]

Great upload thanks 😊

[@VHSRallies]

[@kennychristie4310]

Superb stuff 🤗🙏👌🙌

[@ElTio.45-70]

Year later Didier Auriol took his first WRC victory in Corsica, still driving the Cosworth Sierra, this time only white with green stripes.

[@mairesavage6815]

Stuart Turner & Peter Ascroft. ..Great Ford Men in 1980s during Fords Golden Years...i presume there both RIP...@paddy Sullivan Cork 🏁🎥.

[@VHSRallies]

Peter Ashcroft died in 2008, I believe. Stuart Turner is still around, though.

[@Marvdogger2]

Stigs first Tour de Corse since 1984. Where he drove the lightest quattro Audi Sport ever built.

[@paulcaswell2813]

Hi Marv - haven't bumped into you on YT for ages. Hope you're well. P.

[@Marvdogger2]

@@paulcaswell2813 Hi Paul. Nice to here from you. Doing really well thanks, still keeping my eye on Group B and just busy with life really so not much time to make videos these days.

[@paulcaswell2813]

@@Marvdogger2 Good to hear you're well. The quality of your productions was always top-notch. Thanks for replying. P.

MERAVIGLIOSO GRAZIE

[@paolapastor2777]

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@d.r.971]

Change the title of this video, and comment that it is a Ford video, so fans of this brand will be able to see it and you will have more visits

[@Andy_ATB]

Far more interesting than the current WRC....... Interesting seeing Sainz & Blomqvist; both sons have followed them into motorsport, but circuit racing....

[@paulcaswell2813]

You're making me feel old - I remember thinking of Carlos as the 'new kid on the block': also I remember Stig WITH HAIR unbelievably!

[@Okipouros]

Throwing so much water on a running turbo, cracked my heart

[@andyplage6590]

So as it can be removed its insignificant if its scrap as long as its off and replaced the iconic Cosworth Sierra is merely a tool to try win the Event

[@atckildare3743]

End of an era, normally aspirated, front engine, rear wheel drive winner.

[@scotty5585]

Did anyone spot the Suzuki RG125 ?

[@kevinharker1840]

good that!!

[@tommytoofar]

11.00 minutes the late Roger Freeman?

[@Dany45UR]

Excelente material , aunque mi intención era ver el Tour de Corse

[@noseeum6385]

And I watched this today after Sainz Jr claimed the pole in F1 at Silverstone.

[@geoundici]

grande Malcolm.

[@MrMcKane]

3:52 Only off by 3 years.

[@cool3865]

ah the days when cig manufactures gave you free samples lol

[@davec197]

oil top up mid stage...legendary haha

[@bigjohnfury5662]

*Listen it has to be said other than a TDC win and the French championship the e30 M3 was to rallying what Giant Haystacks was to dieting* *Cosworths on tarmac rallies dominated the Munich machines*

[@davidaxman]

Carlos Sainz seem to have looked like an old man even att the age of 24!

[@fatwalletboy2]

Crazy when you think group B was bamned for being too fast when weve now got people charging around town in cars with double the power! Not necessarily twice the skill though.....

[@paulcaswell2813]

So true. Not far from where I live someone bought an Audi R8. It lasted less than a week before being written off. A classic case of 'all the gear but no idea'...

[@testicat8462]

“Another car crashes severely injuring the driver and killing the co-driver….. And the rally went on!” Lmfao of course it did

[@ungurdani8346]

Salut my friend super car super video subscribe subscribe..

[@SteveM-ly7oy]

Clearly, it wasn't good enough for Ford at that point. Disarray. If Kalle's sun visor had come down, then fair enough, but he never drove for Ford again. I think he was sacked on the spot, wasn't he? He was replaced by Ari Vatanen for the 1000 Lakes. And he drove for Peugeot on the RAC that year, so safe to say that he was surplus to requirements. Strange that Ford only ran one works car on the RAC. Surely Ari was available after his 2nd place in Finland?

[@Christosan88]

Im dumbfounded as to how and why they let spectators on the road like that. Pure Stupidity.

[@gothicpagan.666]
