R.I.P. Pentti Airikkala
After a long illness dad lost his fight today. He took his last stage peacefully.
I know how much he enjoyed reading and writing on this forum, I for one certainly miss his comments.
Kind regards to you all,
Niko

Sad, sad news. A big loss to our sport. I spent many years watching him, an incredible guy and a driver with an amazing talent who maybe didn't get all the breaks he deserved.
Thoughts with his family and friends.

Sad news to read, was a nice cheerful funny guy and I was glad to meet him in Finland.
RIP Pentti
