Stratos in rally nowadays
It’s increasingly rare to see Lancia stratos in rallies these days, especially ex-works cars like this ex-Tony Fassina car, winner of the San Remo in 1979 racing in Normandy this week-end ( rallye de la côte fleurie)
There will also at the next Costa Brava rally in March several Stratos one with Tony himself at the wheel!:D

I visited the Costa Brava rally in 2009.
Well worth the weekend trip.

That was a difficult weather with a lot of rain in Spain:(
Unfortunalety we have had a puncture and a brake issue with the 911 in first stage…There is a lot of DNF and accidents too during the rally!
Tony and his stratos finished the race though and it’s amazing to see them again in action!!

Next time I should drive a Panda like this, it’s more affordable and more suitable for these roads than a Porsche!!:p
