  • Henri used to babysit me and my brother when we lived in Helsinki in the late 1970s (we were good friends with his wife Erja's family). I remember getting the call in 1986 that he had been killed. It was just so sad. I'm really glad he's still remembered. He really was an amazing talent.

  • The drive by Toivonen in 1986 Monte Carlo Rally has to be THE best drives in motorsport history. It is simply incredible,he was not human that night on the Col de Turini. A legend gone too soon. R.I.P Henri and Sergio.

    • I strongly agree. This video didn't even need narration, those brief info texts were enough. And I also really liked the way this film cut - focusing on Henri's dedication and skills instead of speculating and dwelling on the tragic accident that ended Henri's and Sergio's lives far too early. There are good documentaries and accident investigation films about the crash, but this was truly a tribute!

This video contains inedits footage, images, incredible sound....Incredible Delta S4's engine sound... Montecarlo 1986 was the best and most epic rally event ever far. And it is showed like I ve never seen, including details like the last minute Henri's Turini's recce. The music is also breath taking. Incredible masterpiece !!! Thanks !!

  • Great documentary! Just wish you had included more at the end. Henri was vocal about how absolutely on the edge and dangerous these cars were. His last words in interview were "Today, we have driven more than the whole distance of the 1000 Lakes Rally. After 4 hours of driving- it's hard to keep up with the speed. So, with a modern car like this, it's just impossible to race here. It's physically exhausting and the brains can't keep up with it anymore." It shows even more how dedicated he was to the sport, and also why the sport had to change.

  • This Film just popped up on my timeline, I went from watching "Gary Lineker" Twitter outraged videos, to being mesmerised by a moment in time that is unmatched and will never be forgotten by those who appreciated Rallying back then. Whoever made this I thank you. Group B was full of legends, Henri, Hannu, Ari, Timo, Markku, Stig, Tony Pond, Rohl, all on their day capable of being at the front in absolute monsters of cars. 86 was Henri's year, Champion no doubt. His last interview at Corsica was so ominous, talking about "your mind not being able to keep up with the car" and "crazy scary"....as I recall it. I hoped you would end it with dignity and you did it perfectly, rare in an era of hype where everything is just used for more views. 50 minutes here went by in what felt like 10. This would not be out of place with a Cinema release.

The victory in the first outing of a new car for a brand he has never driven before, with a co-driver he hasn't raced with...and all that a week after finishing the most demanding race in the world. It was such an epic feat especially with the battle of the Sebs. I hope there will be a documentary made about it.

  • I don't remember seen these videos on tv as I wasn't born till 1987 but I do remember seen the cars a few years later but what hits me is the shear speed the drivers have to go just to get a couple of seconds to minutes as it was sad to see Henri and Sergio to lose their life on a specific corner that changed the sport forever. I nearly choked looking at the people inches away from the track's where people wanted to touch the cars risking their limbs or getting killed by a moving object this where the problem started to present itself of the danger to the public where the FIA had to do the decision to end the Group B as it was getting out of control. But this demonstration of the video highlights the life of a driver and the co-driver including the team especially the beautiful Lancia Delta S4 in all it glory

  • Interesting note, Fiorio always speaks about Bettega's crash as a "normal" rally accident. But when he comments Henri's crash, it's usually something like this :" we try to make this sport more safe, not the fault of car, driver, or the event itself" etc. It sounds like he knows more than he is willing to say directly. It gets really strange when you consider that Lancia wanted Henri's widow to sign a paper , promising she won't hold Lancia responsible for the fatal crash.

    • wow that is some deep information! are you saying that lancia knew something about the car when the crash happend? And i can understand that lancia wanted the widow to sign the paper, he pushed so mutch out of that car that at one point they would not know what was possible. I dont think they knew what this car peak performence whas

    • @casbremer7793 I consider it likely that Lancia made some observations from the moment the car wreck was taken out of the accident area and later when they examined the remains . Remember , the local police or anybody else didn't organize any investigation. And Lancia left Corsica real quick , real quietly ... another thing I have observed is team-mate Markku Alen has ever since been more or less reluctant to talk about Toivonen Cresto accident . Of course it was traumatic for anyone to witness but also Lancia Martini team was known as a family, extremely tight knit group. I always wonder if Alen knew more but didn't feel like revealing everything because of some type of loyalty to the group and who knows , maybe Fiorio put pressure on everyone in the team not to say everything.

  • Amazing 55mins of the greatest era of rallying. Imagine what the other Manufacturers thourght when Lanica rocked up with the S4,800kg & 600hp. And to Henri….it’s upsetting to watch a man describe a car that had faults but he used his utmost skill and determination to tame it,but led to untimely demise may he RIP. Group B will never die,the men & women that drove them and the cars themselves. They will live on.

  • This makes a grown man cry. Thank you for a great video presenting the greatest rally driver ever (at least for me). Henri earned his reputation as a legend - unfortunately he never got to receive the glory himself. The stage times he put in before the tragic accident are just incredible - pure magic and beautiful man and machine symbiosis.

Toivonen's drive was pure "magidness" (contraction of magic and madness) ..... He would certainly have won the 1986 championship ..... And what about the music, which in this video is purely magic, especially for me in "The Delta Arrives" section. THANKS A LOT FOR SHARING THIS!!!!
