I spoke to him on here a few times and didn't realized who he was until maybe a few months later.... perhaps a year! He will be missed, and know he was on the forum here..... wondered where he went.... and now he's up there with the greats!

Pentti was one of the reasons I joined and followed this forum.
RIP Pentti, you will be missed more than you would have ever thought.
A sad day for rally sport.

I will always remember him with his outspoken attitude.
Pentti Airikkala, Rest In Peace.

I don't often look in on the rally forum, but I had to today. Pentti was a legend on the stages and a legend on these boards. A shame his like aren't the ones running the sport...
Somewhere up there tonight, there's a Finnish gentleman drifting a cloud sideways... :)
R.I.P. Pentii, sadly missed a lovely man to chat to , both on here and on the stages , one of the legends for sure......
