    Henri was my Hero ever since I saw him win the RAC in 1980. I was 22 when this happened, and I can still remember the absolute devastation I felt when I saw the news. Everyone bangs on about Senna's death, but to me, this was by far the most tragic. RIP Henri.

    Thank you for this. I stopped watching Rally after Toivonen's death. He died on the day after my 11th birthday. I also stopped watching formula 1 when Senna died on my 19th birthday. Now I had to research a lot about them for a work I had to do. Although painful and making me still cry after all these years, this footage are actually helping me to cope with those traumas, maybe even take a look to what has been happening in Rally and Formula 1 all these years. I still have a Markku Alén autograph, he exchanged a few words with a 10-year-old kid, unfortunately I don't have Toivonen's

    Hi Marvdogger,
    I want to talk to you about Henri Toivonen from Finland.
    I'm glad that you remember him and for a couple of good reasons,
    1. I've been talking about him for a very long time.
    2. He's the greatest rally driver of all time apart from Walter Rohrl and Colin McRae.
    3. He is the greatest person from Finland.
    4. He's also the best Group B driver ever along with Walter Rohrl, Markku Alen, Michelle Mouton & Hannu Mikkola.
    5. He died too young, at the age of 29.
    6. He was like a rockstar.
    7. He was a star of the future.
    8. He seemed like a future world champion.
    9. My dad, who's also an Aussie and who's turning 63 next year, remembers him well.

    S'il n'avait pas connu cette tragédie en Corse , Henri Toivonen aurait pu devenir champion du monde des rallyes en 1986 tellement c'était un pilote exceptionnel , talentueux et hyper combattif . Il restera le Petit Prince des rallyes . 1986 aurait du être l'année de Lancia avec la Delta S4 et de Toivonen . Respect Monsieur Henri Toivonen .

    It's so heartbraking to hear Henri talking about how physical exhaustion was taking over him. And to think he'd still be alive if Lancia team would've retired him for that rally, but I understand why they didn't, he wanted to continue, and he was winning stages, winning rallies back to back, he was pretty much the man to be champion that year... It still was so avoidable, it hurts, I can't describe it with words...

    I knew that Henri was ill, but I did not appreciate how ill he was until I saw this video and the interviews. A lot of flu medicines warn not to drive, and that is when you are driving something sedate, rather than the insane monster that the S4 was. I am unsure whether he should have been allowed to drive/compete on this event. A great talent. I saw Henri win the RAC, a truly great driver. He will forever be in our hearts. RIP.

      Its hard to get across to people how hard these Group B cars are to drive. Malcolm Wilson was staying in the same hotel as the Lancia team in Corsica and he said at breakfast Henri was sat at a table over from him and he could not believe the amount of tablets the Lancia doctor was giving him with his breakfast.

    @dominicwood3451 4 года назад +2

    Hauntingly beautiful montage. Was too young to appreciate this era, but I now see that it simply couldn't continue. Toivonen and Cresto's death was probably the final straw but in truth Group B was too dangerous on the stages as they existed, and with the total lack of crowd control. The saddest part is surely that they already had a massive lead, all they had to do was to drive relatively conservatively and they would likely have won the rally, reliability permitting? I read of various theories; Toivonen's virus affecting/impairing his driving judgement, rocks placed on the road (which seems implausible because of the danger to any would-be sabbateur), or some sort of abrupt mechanical failure in the steering, suspension or drivetrain. People say that the S4 was a fearsome beast, which only Toivonen could master. Either way, given the entry speed to the corner, and no barrier to deflect the car's trajectory, a severe accident was something which could have befallen any of the cars in the rally on that part of the course. Much criticism came to Lancia because of various (seemingly crazy) design choices associated with the vehicle, e.g. fuel tank underneath the drivers' seat, but I'll bet that many of the rival manufacturers heaved a sigh of relief on the cancellation of Group B. Would a Peugeot or Audi have survived such an extreme crash without killing their pilots? We will never know. The outcome was a tragedy, no doubt about it.

He was one of the fastest drivers in the world, and will be forever. It's sad that we can't never know what really happened to him. I mean that the video material amd proof would be really helpful but there isn't any as we know...and it sucks. He'll stay in our hearts forever. RIP Henri and Sergio 🙏
