Lancia was the then struggling Fiat groups sacrificial lamb, in order to justify saving Alfa Romeo, which inherited much of Lancias best bits, like the motorsport team etc. Who were merged into Alfa Romeos own motorsport department and created the 155 dtm. The Lancia name may only be an echo of the past but some of its spirit carried over into Alfa Romeo atleast.

It's so sad to see Lancia nowadays, just a shell of their former self. Many manufacturers have left their mark on Rally, but to me, Lancia stands above them all.

@@perfectman3077 The Impreza is a great car for sure, and a Rally icon, but the Delta would go on to dominate the sport like no other car before or since. And then there's the magnificent 037, the only rear wheel driven car to ever win a championship against a field of four wheel drives. An achievement to which the Rally God Walter Röhrl himself would make a significant contribution. He later stated that the car felt as fitting as a shoe, and that if he thought about driving a section, the car had already done it. I can hardly imagine a higher praise.

I was 14 when Henkka and Sergio died. We had so manty great pilots, Alen, Vatanen, Kankkunen, Mikkola, Salonen.... but Henri was my hero. I saw group b cars live when I was a kid

Oh man, that 037, just 😍😍😍 to me it’s the perfect car in every way.

The most impressive thing about Lancia and the Alfa DTM team was Sergio Limone admitting they had only a fraction of the budget their competitors had, also tons of the " smaller race parts " were just road car bits taken from the Fiat line up because development had to be reserved for big stuff.

I was on s rallye team of Datsun 510s, at Press On Regardless, when the 1st, marlboro liveried stratos showed up. Next to out chest high cars the knee high Stratos looked like a spaceship! That year they had just won the Ridieu Lakes Canadian rallye, but something electrical let them down in Michigan. Still, I was in love--and have loved all things Lancia ever since. Thank you for this.

I was a huge lancia fan from 87. Lancia rally and Ferrari f1. Still supporting Ferrari for my sins and desperately want to see Lancia back where they belong.

I think the Peugeot 205 T16 was showing it’s championship winning potential, with a small commercial hatchback car(homologation) plus a powerful mid engine layout & 4wd, that Lancia decided to go down that route.

205 T16 you forgot the 4x4 its also in its name. Joan Todt wanted all its features in it's Name. And what a world beater this thing was. 2 Drivers Championships + 2 Constructors Championships, small, endlessly nimble, and more power than a Cosworth F1 Engine. And if I say small, I mean it 205: 3,70m Delta: 4m Audi S1: 4,16m. My only love this car.

Nobody could make better cars than Lancia for rallying. Don't care about what Subaru fan boys say. Lancia's road racing, prototypes and rallying cars are all special for a reason.

I love the long format videos.

absolutely loving the content

Superb as usual.

I recon it was Saby who drove past accident, and shortly after turned his car around and drove on to oncoming traffic, one of the biggest no no`s in the sport. You can see him standing next to a fire with his helmet on 20:56

Just pointing out: In the 1987 Rally New Zealand Possum Bourne came third driving a Turbo 4WD Subaru Leone RX, scoring Subaru's first podium in the WRC. Unfortunately such a car was not as extensively campaigned as the Delta, which also won that event.

i dont know if its better or worse to label things as such these days but its practically a podcast, love it

That opinion is somewhat ignorant of the fact that all the 10 Lancia WRC titles was actually financed by Fiat. Lancia was just not a brand name worthy of further motorsport financing as they never delivered in showroom sales, it works much better as an Italian grandma's shopping trolley.

This was ok mate, I quite enjoyed it. Keep it up an I may sub 👍😎

The Portugal incident was the beginning of the end of Group B. Sadly. Corsica just finished it. Toivonen's fatal crash. 😢

Hell yeah it’s automobilistic long form video time

I have never heard someone calling the O37 the zero37 except in this Docu.

i can see lancia making a comeback with e rally or whatever it is called i really hope they bring back the delta in its old form

5:18 How the hell this car took those corners??? Absolutely unbelievable.

Now I see why its always the Delta S4 or integrale 😅😂. Not my favorite in terms of beauty (I liked the wedges more), but still- glad that Lancia, despite not seen often today, has its earned glory 🙂

The 037 engine was a developed Fiat 131 Abarth engine - vital point. That 16V engine started life in 124 Spider Abarth Rally in 1974 and ended in Lancia Delta S4 in 1986. Which was a developed from 037, code named Abarth 038. Then they put a ”Delta silhoulette” body on it. It seems Abarth bullt at least 150 cars as over 100 factory new ones was for sale ”cheaply” in 1987, as reported in my swedish magazine Teknikens Värld in period.

In the Rally of Portugal 1986, the driver of the Ford RS 200 who had the accident was a portuguese driver, who's name was Joaquim Santos.

What's unbelievable about Lancia history is that Lancia isn't some big manifacturer. It didn't have the infinite cash flow Audi or Toyota or Peugeot had, it only won because of sheer talent and, most importantly, passion. Those were the years where manifacturers still tought "Can I afford to race? No. Do I want to race? Hell yeah", times where you sold cars to make enough money to be able to race, not the opposite.

Firts time Alen tested the group A car he said to his co-pilot, look, I can drive this with one hand, its going to be a long year....

Is the a high pitched noise from 8:00 to 8:31?

That co-driver walking away from a fatal crash raised my hair..😮😢

This is one of (if not THE) best car channel ever!

The Delta looked great compared to affordable family cars today😓

Can you make a video covering development and competition of amazing french maxi (megane and 306) kit cars?

You have a mistake in the video concerning the 1986 season. You mention that all the results got annulled but that is not correct. Only the Rally San Remo got annulled for controversial reasons. The rest of the seasons points stood and Juha Kankkunen won the 1986 title.

Ironically the Renault driver who won the 1986 Portuguese Rally nearly got incinerated in a crash in the Azores Rally later that year. He retired on the spot!

Any videos on Group B and I'm watching!! Unfortunately Group B was a victim of it's own success and developments in the cars. The cars were getting faster and, in the end, were too fast for the places where they were racing. The crowds didn't help, along with the lack of safety. So it was definitely a victim of it's own success. The cars were amazing. Lancia Delta S4, Audi Quatro, Peugeot 205 Gti etc. It was the golden era of Rallying for me.
