This is a tribute to the rallying of the middle 80's, when Group B monsters dominated the championship. There were no serious restrictions for the cars and no limitations for developing, the tracks were extremely dangerous and the crowd were as close to the cars as possible. As the result of rapid evolution the cars became as powerful as F1 cars and it was too much for human abilities to keep them on the nasty roads on the limit. In 1986, after several horrible crashes, FIA banned Group B rallying forever.

Dude I thought you were dead! Historically the best artists in the world die before fame.
You forgot to mention the greatest rally driver in the group b.
The Michele Mouton, who was a girl and was beating all the “men”.
@@Dodger0103 she was not the best, she is an amazing rally driver and also was a great woman drivee but she was not the best on group B
The idea that anyone wants to hear stock music over car engines spent too much time indoors.
The actual safety barriers were made of human bodies.
Only if the marshalling was crap
Don't wanna know how many people died by one mistake, one driver hitting the brake too late. The crowd looks borderline suicidal nowadays
😂
@@Eyck-head haha
And mfs still have the nerve to dislike it
The only Motorsport where a brick is faster than a Ferrari
Oh,rainbow six siege? Hey,im playing it too! And i dont know if group b cars will beat ferrari,maybe f430,in straight line the ferrari would won but in corners.... in corners group b cars will beat any cars that are allowed to drive on the street
Ferrari did a group b car actually, the 288 gto, but they banned the class before it was ready.
@@Your_nearest_toyota_dealer B group cars accelerated 0-100Kmh under 3 sec and 0-200 in like 10 seconds. Not many ferrari can do that even today
@@Shampsuli i dont know much about italian supercars
@@Your_nearest_toyota_dealer group b cars was 700kg and over 700hp+
America in the 80s: Cocaine, crime, cool music
Europe in the 80s:
Yea right, Europe had Cocaine, crime, cool music and bad teeth.
Here in europe we had a fight between manufactures. A fight only the strongest and fastest car would win

The saddest thing about this, is that you're never again going to witness this beautiful madness with your own eyes...
So sad but so true.
Uh... go to a historic rally event.
Indeed.
I'm copying someone else's comment here:
"DON'T CRY BECAUSE IT'S OVER, SMILE BECAUSE IT HAPPENED."
So true
FIA: How crazy will your cars be?
Engineers Lancia and Audi: Yes
Peugeot: Were you expecting us not to?
Porsche: Guten Tag gentlemen.
Ferrari: care for us to join?
Citroen: Bonjour, need another lad to fight?
Taselukaneta actually its lancia: Jenkins! BRING THE SUPERCHARGER!
Speed Star Ford: Mind if we cut in?
I had the fortune of my grandfather still being around to tell me about group b, he was a frequent spectator. He has so much enthusiasm when talking about it, this sport really touched a lot of people
This sport touched a lot of people literally 😂
how lucky he is to have experienced it first-hand.
6:40 to 6:50 give me the chills. The power and struggle to tame the beast! The spectators reaction says it all.
Blomqvist was amazing.He was champion this year 38 years old😁
@@kristerjonsson6028 Who is he? Some guys in the comments said that is Michelle Mouton.
4:42 - dear god, reaction, also says it all :)
@@moneytron4143 it was Mouton, Sanremo 1982, she won the race.

*Dad:* Why are you crying?
*Me:* It's hard to explain
*Dad:* [Looks at the computer] It's that Group B video again?
*Also the Dad* : cries harder than his son when watching the video
I understand......
yes..
A dad raised in the 80s: I understand.
I also cry when watching the 90's dtm on nordschleife video
Group B. The answer to the question "What if we went too far in rally racing? What if we crossed that line and risked EVERYTHING, even our lives, in the ultimate pursuit of speed?".
Gone, but never forgotten.

Indeed.
I’m abit late, but comment of the year.
Beautiful, isn't it
Couldn't be put better.
Audi RS3: Pop Pop, did you have fun in the 80's?
S1 Quattro: Yes, my son.
"WRC is for boys... Group B was for men"
Michèle Mouton: Suis-je une blague pour vous?
TRUE !!!
Audi was like : We are, no men !
Touring Car(Group A)
WRC is for boys... Group B for men... he was wrong, definitely wrong!!! Michele Mouton her driving and her eyes... Best in group B!
Et bordel, il en fallait une sacrée paire !!! Respect, Michèle !
Group B was real golden era of sport. Audi, Lancia, Peugeot, Metro, Ford,... These cars deserve to be legends.
I was born too late to see them on my own eyes, but I love them so much.
RIP Group B
Šimon Hříbek you mean mg not metro
Don't forget nissan
Peugeot fell down so hard - those cars are piece of garbage, but that's why they're cheap :]
But Audi hold their title so hard xd
Šimon Hříbek I
6:42 the guys reaction says it all
It's because he saw Michele Mouton, not for the car !
I come back here once every few years. It always hits me.
Same also bro👍
Now we are three
"Don't cry because it's over"
Smile because it happened!
The GREATEST DAYS of rallying and and I was fortunate to have witnessed it.
DEAR GOD!.
crying when I watch it. Old cars do not come back :/ The world is already filled with cars without a soul
tottally agree
tears came down my eyes when i see that quattro audi!
Currently I have a Peugeot 106 from 1992 and would not trade for any car in the world ... Auto has a soul, and no one can deny.
Do not sell it for any money
Respect and repairing old cars. Do not take their lives ....
Szymon Kacprzak repairing old cars does not take their lives...it continues it
born too late to eperience this in person
but born just in right time to watch this and cry like little girl in front of screen lol
Same mate
Yeap. Same....
Same here.
In person, it was ridiculously fast and loud. Now, on youtube, it's still ridiculously fast and loud.
Frigging awesome though. RIP to the people who died and all. I still find it hard to enjoy motorsports today.
Good times, i cried watching this, i was 10 years old when i watched these gladiators on gravel in the Portugal rally in 85.The sound still rumbles inside, visceral. They were the best pilots ever🇵🇹🏁❤️
Unironically had my dad shed a tear at this. Hes 55 now. He watched group livr as a young man. Hard working european mechanii all his life, tough as nails and never seen him cry before. But this has made him break.
The music.. the lancia.. the audi... I cried
austindorf83 me 2
That's what you call drifting. On the edge omg fantastic drivers.
Divenire by Ludovico Einaudi is the song name.
austindorf83 those cars and the drivers who droved with the cars are legends.
Me 2 man
the 80's was the golden age of the automobile and motorsports, we had group b, we had 253 mph le man cars that could match speeds of formula 1 cars, we had Senna, Prost, production cars could surpass 200 mph, we had the first production cars with carbon fiber, we had the worlds fastest car (197 mph Porsche 959) going to the Dakar rally and winning, we had the record breaking speeds at nascar shaving over 212 mph, we experienced the last days of rallying for Porsche, Lancia, Bmw and Audi, family cars would do 120 mph and it would be like nothing (bear in mind, 120 mph was the 80's equivalent to 160 mph which is fast for today's standards in my book), we had everything. why can't we have that again.
+Mechtech505 because safety, enviroment.... god i wish this times where back!!
me too man, me too. I loved the group c le man cars that could do 253+ mph. those kicked serious but
+Mechtech505 Baja 1000 are not that far from this...
well the Baja is more of rocky and sandy offroad, this is dirt trail rallying with drifting and smaller jumps, plus there are faster than baja
True, the crowd splitting while the cars pass by reminded me of it.
I've lost count how many times I've watched this. This footage paired with this piece of music truly makes it as epic as the racing was. Genuinely makes my hairs stand on end. Bravo sir, bravo. The category may have gone, but stuff like this will make sure its never forgotten.
RIP Henri Toivonen, you will be forever in our hearts.
Anyone else get goosebumps watching this?
Yes mate always do
ThatWhiteSTi
i think i just wet my pants a little... and the sound of these beast cars is pure music.
Juha was absolutely right.
ThatWhiteSTi I get tears, a lot of them
Makes me wish I was alive when they raced.
ThatWhiteSTi Im crying now ;p
Even though WRC requires incredible skill that I struggle to even comprehend. That said, Group B still was another level from another time - never to be repeated.
Mark their is many younger generation who get rather worked up(angered or insulted)by comments like yours mine and many others, mainly the younger generation of the WRC fans, some that in the wording it appears would like to beat you and myself senseless with our opinions, so try and word things in a milder or careful way as they might want to stone you to death and myself and others alike if you put GROUP B above WRC as they might send their vigilante groups who might track you via Facebook, something I don't bother with thank god!
Again " personally I agree with you on your comment but some certainty don't,
Goodbye sir!!
wtf u try to say? Wrc is for pussies, those are nothing like group b cars
@@garyfletcher8150 you're insane
@@cq5085 thanks !
Group B wouldn't be able to repeated again. Those monstrous 4 wheeled coffin are still too dangerous even with nowadays technology.
Those drivers in that era can be described as an legend, a modern gladiator that playing with Angel of death.
3:52 footage of a Lacia 037 hunting down his human prey (~1982, coloured)
Great comment, really reminds me a tiger jumping over his prey.
Beautiful machines and incredible amount of skill on board. Much respect.
In my humble opinion these are the greatest drivers of them all
@@benward1347 agreed
Question to group b mechanic : is it twin turboed or super charged
Mechanic: YES
So underrated comment
mostly turbo in these cars with insane Anti-lag that destroyed the turbo by the end of the race
Yes. Lancia S4 was supercharged and turbocharged, right?
Lancia s4 both of them
I was born too late. I want to see Group B so bad. And now, It’s gone forever. Those cars were amazing, and they’re not made like this anymore. It brings a tear to my eye. Group B will always be remembered.
RIP Group B
Same, i am born too late too but i kbow for a fact, today cars are made through political crap regulations and market segments and shit.
back then cars were made with a passion
Same, in born in 2006. But at least i experienced the 2000s car culture. But I would give everything to go back in time, see a race in group b
You arent the only
Lucky to been born in Sweden, värmland i -67. The rally was just around the corner. And it was loud and fast with all the great drivers.
5 cylinders, 4 wheels, 3 pedals, 2 feet, 1 driver, the essence of quattro, the mark of group B
This is my favorite video on RUclips. Probably watch it 20 times a month and have been since 2018. It really captures the raw energy that rushed through the drivers, fans, and cars. Truly this is an extraordinary video that gets my heart racing and my mind inspired. Thanks for this!
This is like watching a RIP video of a long lost friend.
Simonye Craig and it is
@@1Harrysson ☺️👍
1:47 that guy in the brown jacket literally had to jump to avoid getting his legs broken, those spectators were crazy...
he did it pretty well
I was looking for that comment! Crazy!
That was my first impression aswell. But in hindsight it could be an optical illusion that he was THAT close.
He probably jumped to avoid the dirt and small rocks. Still madness though, crazy spectators xD
Remember, the 80 and 90 were the last decades when men were real man:(
19 year old boy over here who wishes he had lived in that era, because everything was more romantic, more unique, more powerfull, more beatiful. The cars had their own character one by one! The drivers were something more than heroes. Damn... No I'm not crying, you crying 😥
For those of us that were lucky enough to actually see these group b monsters it was a magical time in rallying and will never,ever be forgotten
THE EDITING, THE EDITING. I had the to pause it for a second, i've never seen a video so well done, you can feel strong nostalgia from a time you didn't even lived in, that's how crazy that vid is
Thank you very much..
Brilliant words!
GROUP B was a one in a life time experience, they (personally) were the most insane days of any Motorsport, some might disagree but wrc although technologically superior, but in terms of entertainment,health and safety virtually Zero, pure power without any restrictions like today's wrapped up in cotton wool society and the ability to touch the things (if you had the balls) the drivers having the balls to even drive the things like the S4 with the petrol tank under both driver+co arse plus the handling of one that was at times as controllable as a shopping trolley are far superior than today's wrc,the list is endless,anyway!
DON'T CRY BECAUSE IT'S OVER, SMILE BECAUSE IT HAPPENED.
“Roll that sweet Group b footage!” - James from Donut.
I came here after watching that one.. Need the longer footage ya know
Who else is still watching in 2020 this amazing Group B Tribute video???Absolutely love it
Im watching in 2021, and i saved teh video to watch forever.
This was Life! This was War! i get goosbumbs and tears in my eyes watching this. These were my heroes . This makes my heart bleed. Precision , Teamwork , a life full of dedication, this was everything!
Geht mir genauso. Eine irre Zeit. Leider gibt es das nie wieder. Irgendwie wird gefühlt alles nur noch schlechter...
Who ever made this video clearly knows what rally is supposed to be. The group b rally was the ultimate test for car handling.Those times were amazing and should never be passed into legend. The Group b era must come back.
#Revive_the_golden_Group_B_Era
they really should, because technology advanced so much since we could probably have 2000+hp cars doing 0-60 in less than 1second and them having a 300mph+ top speed.
Its should not come back. It was to dangerous many people died and wiht all the safety that would be needed today grop b would just not be the same.
@@tiborfoldi6762 People die watching or driving what they love. If I was there I couldn't ask for a better way to go.
@@tinycockjock1967 I know that and I love it aswell but regulations happened and it was consiedered as to dangerous. I would LOVE to watch group B but it will never happen
RUclips has many ‘tributes’ to Group B. This is by far one the best! Beautifully compiled and what gorgeous music!
Thank you...
if u wanna see more amazing group b footage, search "group b finland" and watch the video with the 205 in the thumbnail, it's excellent
The music ruins it. I want to hear the sound of the cars. Why add such crap music??
Yea except it's stolen and a music track played over another.
Here's the original with the original music track. ruclips.net/video/JG9yfutJ254/видео.html
@@Icemanrider1 ye dude really good job with the video ! epic footage great editing sound when it's needed in good balance with music :D good job !
This is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.
I wish I could have been there standing on the sides and watch the cars thunder by and hear the power of the engines making the ground shake.
Group B forever.
0:55
Wow, moments captured in time.
The stage was set. From the tires, engines, cars, people, drivers. To get a moment of Group B supercars hurdling down a road. It's such a blessing that we have this footage of these cars and drivers in their hayday. Though not there now, at one point in time all these things came together in a scene, captured in video and are like memories from another era. Photos and videos are amazing, you can capture the look/"aesthetic"/feel/memory/experience of a certain point in time, and pass it on to those who haven't been there and experienced it.
RIP everyone who died because of Group B.
I think what makes group b so legendary is that everyone was crazy.
From engineers designing such monsters to drivers driving those monsters while seeing spectators Infront of them running away not to get hit.
This is the greatest sport ever create because there were no regulations. It was about being brave and striving to push those cars to the limit. It wasn't about how fast your car is, it was how fast the driver was willing to go. Many drivers died in group b but we know they were willing to die because they loved the sport. It is a shame it only lasted three years but when we look back we will all know the greatest drivers came from group b rallying.
Couldn't agree more
Wrong use of words, no one was willing to die, sounds like suicide. They knew the risk, and were willing to take the risk. Only two drivers and one co driver died during the Group B World Rally period.
We don´t have drivers like this already
There were regulations, just less than nowadays, haha!
Viktoria plzen
Tears of joy in my eyes there is something special about speed and raceing that not many people understand and trully feel it in their soul respect for all Group B drivers peace!
We thinked that in the future the cars would fly, and didnt knew that the cars already where flying in those rally events, is sad that this era has ended, but we can remember it as the best motorsport era in the history
Too dangerous, It's fun but the driver himself is already frustrated
And in the end this era ended badly due to a serious accident😥

Thank you for the guys who left these legend video footage to me.
-A boy born in 2002
AMAZING the drivers had balls the spectators had balls, everyone had balls in those days.
Jack T the cars had balls
You NEED to have balls to become a spectator, which most people don't have today 😪
Today there are barely some people with balls. Most are jus whiny oversensible pathetic freaks who dont want others to have fun because they themselves are too afraid of any fun.
@@egorence2149 😆😆😆
The Spectators had balls but they didn't have common sense
The audi quattro was one of the sexiest cars ever.
Nikdave97 for me nothing will beat the 037, the Quattro is nice to look at but the Lancias were just sheer perfection.
Quattro is porn for me but the Lancias are Adriana Lima going crazy on a beach for me, if you get the drift
Nikdave97 And so powerful too. How many bhp? 400 bhp or something?
aimps19 between 500 - 600 depending on which year
The sounds it makes are the sounds i make when i orgasm
No hi-tech shit, just men with huge balls of steel mad driving gorgeous creations that pushed the boundaries of automotive engineering. Group B was a beautiful thing to watch as a kid.
what a bad time to not be born...

Yeah, along with Lancia Delta S4 and the 037 Evo ! Best cars from the group.
But really the Quattro looks and sounds so good ;) good old cars. The new cars will not be the same
I say bring it back. To see companies going crazy with almost no restrictions to be creative and innovative in Group where Drivers are trying their best to put the foot down and get the best times is amazing to witness.
Easily one of the best Group B videos out there. Cried watching this, so beautiful.
more horsepower, more speed, better drivers, this is pure rally
People like you give me hope! :)
This was the golden age of rally, too bad I wasn't even born when the era ended :(
+Peder Hansen true. But spec b has something about that makes it so.....special
Peder Hansen metro 6r4 could often reach above 200mph mechanic took therapy in between rallys as they often found4 blood,hair and fingers from spectators drivers got tunnel vision an audi A4 lost control and killed 6 spectators and the driver who broke his spine and the roll cages were aliminium light
thats what I call amazing shame I never seen it
Same
Today is much easier for drivers with all thier electronic aids . And yes the b spec had electronic aids, but much much simpler in comparison.
Peder Hansen its not about the times, listen to those sounds, no co2 emissions. Look at the crowd on the racetrack. It is group B rally, something else than just cars and good drivers, its the mixture of legendary cars and the pure love of motorsport from every single guy out there
Ludovico’s music makes this even better ❤️
Thank you for making this incredible video. I got goosebumps watching it. It took me back 30+ years to being a kid again, experiencing what was and is the greatest motorsport of all time. Made me quite emotional actually.
Just brilliant.
When cars were cars and drivers were drivers.... A time long past. So sad... Racing in this age is not the same. I'm just happy I can watch video of this.
***** The drivers with the most skill, with the biggest balls and crazy enough to floor such powerful cars on a dusty road ... how not to love this?
True words! Respect!
+Andreallen4 Well, though, the sub-title of Group B being for "men" vs boys is a bit off, at least where Michelle Moulton is concerned! I would've loved to see what she could've done in a F-1 car...
NurNordschleife now its all about how well can a computer on wheels can keep you safe not how well a friver can drive like it used to be i miss group b
Cars back then weren't computerized they were real authentic amazing they had real steering so you could really get a feel for the cars and feel every bump of the road but now we have computerized steering and it just doesn't feel the same cars are bigger and heavier and have more wires running through them you get an Audi or BMW from today it just won't feel the same Cuzz now companies are aiming towards luxery you get a new Audi or BMW it will have crazy issues in 4 or 5 years cuz that's how technology is they are too complicated an not simple like they were back then
baddest drivers ever. balls of steel.
In my opinion, they had balls of TITANIUM to drive like that.
They're lucky to still have their titanium balls
hope their titanium ball didn't fuck up weight dispersal
good point
Nah mate they had carbon balls, gotta keep the weightreduction
I Must say this is probably the best selfmade youtube video ive ever seen..... thank you for this joy, i wish id been able to see it myself
Who ever compiled this vid is called a legend
6:43 is just the best scene ever
B E (A) S T
I think the scene of 6:30 is even more beautiful
@@mullerman1104 yes
Legend Michele Mouton.
Blomqvist is/was amazingAnd Waldegård too
These people knew full well they could die while doing this and they still raced
These people were probably scared out of their balls but i dont think any other thrill can get close
They are the real drivers. Unlike todays that is assisted by technology. And people still believe they are best driver than the drivers in this video.
Imagine what they were thinking when they drove so fast passing all these hundreds of people and feared that with just one little mistake it could end up in mass murder by accident.
They still spectate.
@@IhateMTVandVIVA who would be responsable tho ?
Group B racing and i mean everything evolved, even the human barriers will still go down as the greatest motor sport to watch
THIS is the most beautiful video I ever seen !
This one and the other video that has "call me" by Blondie are by far the best tributes to group b that I've seen
This is some pure example of motorsport, combine it with formula one and you have the real definition of it. The 80's was, arguably, the best era of motor racing, just pure engineering, fire breathing monsters mixed up with smooth asphalt to bumpy gravel roads or even snow plus some mad drivers and you have something out of this world. This is the heaven for any petrol head out there!
From now on... This is the best video I've ever seen... In my life
Thank you very much ..:)
Icemanrider1 your favourite group B car? my is Quattro or Delta S4
Yes, definitely Quattro and Lancia Delta S4 ...
Icemanrider1 I love Quattro sound
Icemanrider1 aha, já bych mohl psát česky :D
My dad was seriously ill, every time he got borred we were watching videos like this with crazy group B rally cars, he was huge automotive fan, put his whole life in to repairing, tuning, driving like god and selling cars, in wild 90's he owned Audi 90 coupe quattro and later he was forced to sell it and he regretted it every day since then, I wanted to gift him coupe quattro, but now it's too late
I miss you every day dad, thanks for everything, true rally fan, loved father and trusted friend
This compilation is simple perfect for me is the most perfect vídeo on the web. This exactly express the purity and the soul of what it was the best rally of all times. My Congratulations for so unique compilation. Greetings!.
Thank you
I wish group B would come back one day. I'll buy a ticket at any cost :')
you can see it for free my dude, no need for tickets
Watching a rally is free
Hey current wrc faster because as it turns out more control makes sense in gravel than dumping brute Force
@@Marc-zi4vg nope look at the hp buddy
Group B is 770hp and wrc today is 350
@@pitlanegreece based on the sources and forums I've looked up says that even 90s wrc cars are getting faster than group b cars and the main reason is that even though they have power, group b regulation says smol engine = smol tires and this contributed to why these group b cars are so hard to drive, mean while wrc and beyond the 90s saw the tire size to be same for everyone while providing greater grip than their beastly predecessor combined with maneagble amounts of power so in turn faster time in stages. Raw power doesn't mean faster if over all the driver can't control it well, in the narrow and slippery rally stages, group b cars are sledgehammers while what came after that are precision tools for comparison...
.
And oh yeah they bumped the power now to 385 recently so we're getting back there.
4:40 dear God moment😳🙏
I won’t watch this for months, but when I do come back to it the starting sound clip from the S1 makes me tear up. What an incredible vehicle.
This is the tribute/clip/music video i watch when wanted to listen “Divenire”. Group B cars’ sounds and Divenire multiples all emotions.
Music - beautiful
Editing - amazing
Subject - legendary
The drivers were loony but the spectatators were insane.
And the press photographers (who stood in the middle of the road to get a shot of an oncoming car and jumped out of the way at the last second, you can see them in the first minute).
Thank you so much for the vídeo.its absolutely incredible. Just brought tears to my eyes. How i miss these days
Incredible video! Amazing compilation of scenes, sounds and music! Very well done!! 👏👏👏
I remember being at Clumber Park in Nottinghamshire watching these fire breathing monsters, on one section of road there was a Rover SD1 cop car with four traffic coppers sat on the bonnet, they wasn't there to keep the peace or nab speeding rally cars, but had a speed laser speed gun on loan from the USA and was 'testing it out', I watched a copper point the gun at a 6R4 coming around one corner, the gun recorded some 80mph, then within 200 metres the gun was reading some 148mph.....The look on the coppers faces was pure excitement.
WRC is for boys...
Group B is for men....
Hell yeah....
Jesus isn't a real person so he can't be a racing driver... 😁
These days the cars are great, the drivers are great. That's for sure...
In the old days the cars are monsters and the drivers were gods....
***** well mcrae raced at dakar too so...
his not wrc only
not sure about loeb tough
and one woman: Michelle Mouton :)
tigersharkot indeed
cant forget her
***** The magic is gone, thats all
This is the best background song for Rally I have ever heard. It brings lot's of nostalgia. Not memories for me, because I was born 1977, but definitely would've want to see Group B in reality. It's astonishing. Extremely well put video with the pace notes. Thank you!!!! I play Dirt Rally 2.0 on my racing simulator with Lancia Delta S4 on this song as a background, even have Lancia emblems on it 😄. Such a successful company, I can't believe they don't exist anymore or at least they are not the same at all. 👍
Awesome compilation of Group B racing and drivers... Thank You for sharing.
It hurts my heart that when my son gets older he will never get the chance to admire these God's of rally!!!!
Imagine group B still existing until now with new technology, faster cars.. it was too beautiful and dangerous to exist in this world
Ver It would be way to dangerous
It's better back then I think.
Thanks so much for making this video ... this amazing video - I have goosebumps .. and tiny tears in my eyes. Again and again
The story of Group B, the most insanely dangerous racing series ever known to man. There were virtually no restrictions and the series produced some of the most crazy race cars ever. Group B was so dangerous that it only lasted four seasons before it was abruptly cancelled after a number of crashes resulting in driver and fan fatalities.
five seasons actually
Lancia got shit when it left rallying.
Yes! You Are right
In the UK it's sad - they gave up after the Delta and withdrew to the continent, never to return. It's like they finally built a practical and very fast hot hatch that didn't rust, but it was too late.
Mikael K Its amazing history...
only car i liked after their rally days was the Thema 8.32 with the Ferrari V8
***** For me it would be the 1972 Lancia Beta Coupe, I know it rusts like a shipwreck but I live in the desert
This......is........just..............beautiful.
It's the send off Group B never got.
Absolute masterpiece of a video. Cheers from France... and thank you 🙏🏻
J'ai 53ans donc ce GR B, je l'ai bien connu, fantastique, puissant, spectaculaire, des bolides en puissances, de vrai et grand pilote,des voitures uniques qui nous manquent encore aujourd’hui , un public totalement passionné, c'était sensationnel du vrai spectacles, un plaisir d'y assister mais aussi avec regrets des accidents mortels. MERCI à ces pilotes qui nous ont donnés du vrai plaisir, du spectacle. Trop de pilote et copilotes sont partis dans l'eau delà par amour, passion de leur travail. Oui aujourd'hui, il y a encore de bon pilotes, de bonne voiture, mais CE N'EST PLUS CE REGRETTABLE GR B
the letter B stands for badassery
B now stands for a phrase. It means : Bring those demons back!
