World Rally Championship Review 1990 (1990)

1990 was set to be a fantastic season, with Toyota taking on Lancia and the Europeans taking on the Scandinavians head-to-head. Manufacturer interest was hotting up again with five entering the championship, and the name Subaru was beginning to make a mark on the world rally stage for the first time. Rallying came alive again as spectators enjoyed the spectacle of such brilliant drivers as Carlos Sainz, Timo Salonen, Didier Auriol, Colin McRae, Hannu Mikkola, Juha Kankunnen and Tommi Makinen, behind the wheel of machinery with performance on a par with the old Group B ïsupercarsÍ which so entranced world audiences in the mid-80s. From the first special stage in Monte Carlo to the final chequered flag in the RAC Great Britain Rally the white-knuckle action never ends!
