I always found it strange how he was the man in a Stratos but disappeared basically together with the original Lancia Squadra Corse.
I guess he decided to retire few years before the average (great) driver of the time. He was 38 in 1978, his last "full" season. He helped FIAT develop the 131 Abarth, after they decided to close down the Lancia team.Quote:

Sandro Munari and Lancia Stratos will be rally legends forever. They say he was in poor health since 2022 here:

Wow, it's like someone listened to me. Haha joke. I completely support that idea. People like watching old cars and put legends in it would be awesome aswell.
i don't like the idea of a friday off, but maybe a sunday could be done, with morning running before the wrc stage, and an added show afternoon.Quote:

Wishing good recovery for him! Maybe it's time for him to take it easier, relax and enjoy life. Rally goals are achieved :)

I’m not sure if this was posted here in this forum but in case it hasn’t here it is. Richard Hammond alongside Oliver Solberg, THIS is how you promote this beloved sport!
I don’t know why the forum has been giving me trouble lately, sometimes it says it’s unsecured because it doesn’t encrypt with https, in my 13 (next week) years on this forum, I’ve never had any sort of issues like that and from what I gather I’m not the only one?
