In memory of Hannu Mikkola - WRC Legend

[@thoras1297]

We will miss him. He is a Legend !

[@thoras1297]

Is a Legend, not was a Legend.

[@animalcol1]

@@thoras1297 Agreed. Tense plays no part in his legacy. Hannu will always be a legend 👍

[@therayven3147]

True... Just as Dale Earnhardt *IS* a legend, Ayrton Senna *IS* a legend, Babe Ruth *IS* a legend...
Immortality isn't physically living forever... As long as the legacy of said names and then some, are remembered, they will live on... In our hearts and minds... So they are truly not dead... They are *VERY* much alive... In their legacy and the memories of such...
There is no "was" or "were"... He *IS* a legend and they *ARE* legends...

[@Mx64MaxyImpress]

What a sad days
He maybe the superior Flying Finn
Remember his flying with almighty Ford Escort and Lancia Delta Integrale

[@vaisanentommi7037]

He never drove Lancia?

[@therayven3147]

The Lancia Delta HF Intregrallye Evoluzione (probably spelt that wrong)... My favorite car...

[@joedays94]

When one was a child, he saw the monsters of group B masterfully carried by the great Nordic masters and learned their names in that language to mispronounce them, while collecting their photos and posters with the great show of power, control and speed they provided. One is more from the era of Sainz, Biasion, Kankkunen, McRae, Auriol, these are the first "expeditions" to the road to vibrate with the passage of cars, but there is no doubt that Hannu Mikkola's Audi is the first impression powerful that I was passionate about this sport. Rest in peace, master.

RIP, legend of the stages. ❤️🌹😞

[@WorldRallySight]

Life is itself a rally... with all those stages with twist and turns. Hannu has just completed the last stage of his life. Rest in peace 🙏🙏

[@therayven3147]

Right? Guess he has made it to the final "service area" of his life...

[@nickymeiner8443]

[@yellacat]

I had the honour of rallying with Hannu in 1995 on the london to Mexico Rally. A re-run of the original world cup in 70. He won it then. He won it again in 95. The original 'Flying Fin' - Legend. xx

[@Zeb96]

R.i.p Legend🙏

[@dedushka_Fidel]

покойся с миром, легенда

[@dommagno3693]

Inesquecivel nos anos 80 no Rallye de Portugal que nos fazia passar noites sem dormir para ver verdadeiros Artistas do Volante, Mikkola jamais morrera enquanto tivermos Memórias lindas de época Gloriosa dos Rallyes. Sentimentos para Familia e todos amantes dos Rallyes.

[@davebone8326]

R.I.P. Thanks for the entertainment over the years.

[@paulcooper903]

Never spectacular but always very, very fast. RIP Hannu.

[@max27stoner]

He tamed the Escort and Quattro. Always sideways with Escort. Quattro might have understeered quite a lot but Hannu made it dance and fly. 1983 WRC champion. Also 7 times 1000 Lakes Rally winner…just how? During those days when the cars broke down and you had to drive flat out all the time with unstable cars. Incredible. Also 1979 title belonged to him. It was unacceptable from police what happened in that year’s Monte Carlo Rally. He won the rally but was later dropped to 5th due to ”dangerous driving” on road section. It was a shame. There’s no doubt, he was really spectacular.

[@drifthomies8]

R.I.P LEGEND!

Hannu, is now rallying in heaven. RIP Flying Finn. My condolences to his family.

It diferent

[@josedacunhafilho]

I wonder if he was a Jim Clark fan. And I wonder if he was, at all, related to Heikki Mikkola. Although a "WRC fan" I confess I didn't realize how important Hannu Mikkola was.

[@RallyeRacin9]

Come on, only 3m 17s for Hannu?

[@harrybruijs2614]

The top rallydrivers are from an other planet. They take your car and then you want to never drive again. Of course you do. Again one of the Heroes gone.

[@therayven3147]

Though I'm not really familiar with him... I have heard of him... The "Flying Finn"...
I really didn't take a liking to rallye untill toward the end of the Colon McRea era... Got to playing games like the first "WRC World Rallye Championship" game on PS2... That is what really got me into rallye...
However, this man is still seen as a legend by many, and it is sad he passed...
Guess now he is amung the likes of Colon McRea, Dale Earnhardt, Ayrton Senna, and others... Bet they racing the *HELL* out of each other there...

[@ThePapaja1996]

That is probebly Tommie mäkkinen and Juha kankkunen

[@simonchebel841]

You could haven't added ads in this video at least, just saying
PD: sorry about my english

[@footy_clips2931]

I Believe There Was A Video Of Mikkola And Ari Vatanen Sitting On A Hay Bale Saying How Insane Group B Was, I Don’t Remember Where It Was But If Somebody Knows It’ll Be Much Appreciated,
