Amazing driver. One of my childhood heroes, like all these Finnish rally legends. RIP Henri and Hannu

I was there. Love the Manx, Love Ari, Love Escorts, Loved the TR7 V8 especially driven by Tony Pond. It was a brilliant event that year and we went nearly every year throughout the 1980s. Pro ably the best was Vatanen vs Toivonen in the Manta 400s. Toivonen won "comfortably, but did they ring the absolute best out of each other. Superb. That was possibly 1983?

Thanks for the great video! For us Finns, Markku Alén, Hannu MIkkola, Ari Vatanen and Henri Toivonen, Simo Lampinen, Timo Mäkinen, Timo Salonen, Juha Kankkunen, Tommi Mäkinen, Marcus Grönholm and many other wonderful Finnish drivers are Flying Finns and legends that we will remember forever. We greatly appreciate and respect the great ones who competed with them like Colin McRae, Carlos Sainz, Walter Rörhl, Richard Burns, Petter Sohlberg, Sebastien Loeb and Stig Blomqvist etc ... Thanks for the great video yet!

I came here to see some classic rally. But this good feller from another era is really a salt of the earth guy. Yes in 2021 i'm really distracted by day to day basis thinking and he reminded me of our individual big picture still waiting for us to complete it. Salute

Fantastic Film at the time...But Barry & BBC were very much against showing Billy Coleman's Exellent Circuit of Ireland Drive before an oil pipe fell off..he was leading Ari & jimmy until half way👎@paddy Sullivan VHS 📼 1990s

Brilliant driver,lovely man and philosopher.

Absolutely love this took me right back, the old grainger footage, the music and hearing these old hard drivers speak. Much thanks from a Southern America rally fan.

Ari, Henri, and Hanu. Three of the all time greats. Rallying was so exciting and raw I would say and full of real personalities. UK rallying was the standard for others to follow..

On my way to the shop to get a packet of Rothmans.

Mcraye in the chevette (kadett with manta front) is someting too see❤

Legendary rally driver. Thanks for the upload.

One of my all time favourite rally drivers is Ari Vatanen and this film is fantastic.

Thanks for sharing this vid. Awesome stuff. Absolutely mental driving in a good way :) If I had one wish in my life it would be to be in a passengers seat of one great drivers rally car, I bet it would be million times better than any carnival ride

The brits are great for asking stupid question.

Des Lynam narrating.?

Very entertaining but what makes you think we need the stupid music to drown out the sound of the cars which is real music to an enthusiast's ears?
