The story goes that in 1985 when Hannu Mikkola landed the previous record time for Ouninpohja in Quattro E2, the team changed Audi's back wing to a bigger one just made for Ouninpohja. This enchanced downforce and the faster Mikkola went, the better the grip was. I don't know if there is photos to go with the story but that is at least how Mikkola tells it.

This is why it is called the Finnish GP :)

I love to hear about things that hapenned in the past like this, especially if it involves the group B era :)

Haha!

nice to see that there are low lifes in developed countries as well... i thought we were the only priviledged nation to have them in abundance.

Of course it is too much to ask from sub-human species to understand that the guy who had that huge accident had another one a few weeks back which cost the life of his 24 year old co-driver.....

Figure it out. May be when the alcohol had vaporized from their heads, probably could understand that stupidity (even in general)... or may be not.

the fact that they actually drink that much shows that they are full retards when they do not drink as well...

One of the reasons i am hesitant to visit Finland is exactly this kind of garbage behavior... clapping and cheering when they see accidents is beyond me. And it is a real pity to see such behavior from a nation that i hugely respect on how they do things in general, not only rallying.

for me it is not something that will make me hesitant for visiting,but trully i can t find a reason to cheer and clap for an accident.I saw this behaviour and at other countries too.

Just go to the right places and you won't be bothered about it, can't actually remember to have seen any overly drunk people on the stages this year.
