At the beginning of the 70s, the world called for rallying. The passion was already irrepressible. The multiple events that year after year and independently served as a meeting point for teams, drivers and fans, needed to unite with a common goal: to create a world competition.

After the approval of the FIA, in 1973 the World Rally Championship was created.

Its origins, as in almost everything, were not easy. Snow collapses, controversial resolutions, organizational chaos, oil crisis… The first year of the championship was one difficulty after another. And the second was not easier.

Throughout these pages you will enjoy of beasts like the Lancia Stratos, the Fiat Abarth, the Audi Quattro ... Of legendary tests like Monte Carlo, the always frozen Sweden or the endless Safari ... And of names that paved the way to the WRC like Munari , Blomqvist, Röhrl, Mikkola ...
