Lancia 037 at the Tour de Corse Historique 2024

This year, the Lancia Rally 037 will be honoured, 40 years after its last victory (in Corsica). The celebrations will be in style, with the presence of four examples, including the one presented by Drive Vintage, the only one to have won two World Championship victories.
Assembled in June 1982, this chassis (number 301) was initially used as a development model before being entered in the 1983 Rally New Zealand where the loose gravel of the course gave a rear-wheel drive little chance to compete with the Audi Quattro and its all-wheel drive. However, the difference wasn’t going to be in terms of driveability, but more simply in terms of reliability. In this game, the Italian beat the German - and yes! - in the hands of Walter Röhrl. Entrusted to Markku Alén, the chassis then clinched a 3rd place in Finland followed by a victory at Sanremo, synonymous with the title for Lancia.
The car on display at the 2024 Tour de Corse Historic will be presented in the same specification it had during its second success in Italy.
