Matt Runyon He also said, that toivonen (when they both drove for opel) started slower than röhrl, but became faster as the stages progressed only to crash when he was finally faster than röhrl.
@@Wolf-zs9vc Yes those cars were like missiles in 1986. Lancia Delta S4 even beat formula-1 cars at that year in dry tarmac and the competition was who can do it fastest from 0-100 km/h. Lancia did it in incredible time 2,2 seconds. Think about it for a while, 2,2 seconds!
@phxxr650r The fans back then were not aware of the risks, a lot of fans lost fingers when trying to touch the cars. The problem was that the teams were pushing their drivers beyond the limit and Henri had a bad cold, he should had stayed in bed.
@@Finne72 I don't think that was the reason but it was a problem. I dont think there was any fans or spectators on the scene but the tire marks did indicate that there may have been a failure on the car. Unfortunately it burned up too badly to ever find out. Not to mind that Lancia liked to cut corners regardless of safety. I.E. fuel tank under the driver and co pilot.
Henri's father, also a rally champion, told Henri to focus on rallying because of several fatal accidents in F1 and other track sports. Maybe if Toivonen went another way and chose to compete in formula cars we'd have a Finn champ between Rosberg and Häkkinen. It woud've been amazing, Toivonen, Senna and Prost at late -80's.
@Marvdogger From an Italian seemingly low-budget Group B documentary "C'era una volta il Gruppo B". Also took the clip of Toivonen leaving for the last stage from that documentary. Viewing the stage start area on Google Street View, it's most likely the same camera man who filmed the smoke rising behind the mountains who filmed the start a few minutes earlier.
Henri drove for Eddie in F3..Eddie maintains to this day that Henri would have been a multiple GP winner if he chose to remain circuit racing instead of going rallying,,as EJ says in this vid "He had this unbelievable natural talent"!!!!.....
A friend posted this on Facebook today, May 2nd 2011, the 25th anniversary of Henri's untimely death. I've not seen the video before. What a superb compilation of clips, masterfully edited and set to great music. I particularly liked the shot of Henri spraying the champagne timed with the guitar solo in Queen's 'The Show Must Go On'. Well done on creating this wonderful tribute, and many thanks indeed for sharing it with us. RIP Henri and Sergio.
Nigdy nie było lepszego i nie będzie może się mylę i kogoś obrażę ale żaden z Sebastianowi ani love ani ogie nie byli tacy dobrzy jak Henri i zawsze w sercu❤❤❤❤
Lancia 037... What a machine. One of the final RWD "Widowmakers" able to beat the invading AWD Audi's and do it in such Italian beauty and finesse. And the Delta S4? That car was just a pure monster.. Can't say i'm surprised it happened in a Delta S4...
@@bavarianbanshee Absolutely correct. A beautiful upset of driver + machine + engineering = perfection. It was breathtaking, I wish I was alive to witness it.
Eh... if you look at the history, there was a lot of shady tactics to take that 037 to the win over the Audi's...but it's still the sexiest Rally Car ever.
Dear friend Antti, it´s an honour and a pleasure for me to see your greats videos. That one is really amazing and wonderful, like ALL your videos. I can see them once, and other, and other, and other... Your style is very very elegant, with exclusives videos (that I´ve never seen) and great music. In my view you and Amjayes are the best rally video editors of all the world. Thanks for your work. Thanks from Spain. Henkka RIP.
Se me saltan las lágrimas cada vez que q veo un vídeo d este pedazo piloto y su desafortunado final... Lo duro q debió d ser para todos, ufff. Sabía poco d él y fui viendo más vídeos pero éste es mi favorito desd hoy, excelentes temas d Queen y Gun's y excelente repaso a la trayectoria frustrada demasiado pronto d un campeón del mundo en potencia. 33 años ya desde q se fue para hacer quizá, d ángel d la guarda d otros pilotos y sus libradas increíbles..., DEP para él y x supuesto su desafortunado copi q tampoco pudo librarse. Quién sabe, en otro universo paralelo se libraron y joder, me gustaría verlo en acción, si yo no la palmo en ese otro universo, claro... 😅 DEP HENRI, RICHARD, COLIN y si me dejo a alguien más, perdón 🙏 No os olvidaremos jamás, en nuestros corazones vivís
"it could be my last, for a very long time" I'm glad this turned out to be false! your videos are truly magical. they capture the spirit of the human experience.
I was a great fan of Henry and seeing your videos about him reminds me of how great people are from time to time,....as drivers and people who make videos about people they love........thank you Antti. R.I.P Henry Toivonen and all other Great rally drivers
Ei tämän mahtavempaa kunnianosoitusta Henrille voi tehdä ! Tässä kiteytyy yhteen koko Henkan mahtavuus. Kyyneleet valui poskia myöten viimeisen 2 minuutin ajan. Kiitos tästä Antti
i agree . henri and sergio was a artists in a wrong playing platform. these times a rally is too long for a normally person , because special stage is approx 60 km, and one day special stages is 12 *60 = 720 km .
Here's the songlist: Apocalyptica - Farewell Yö - Rakkaus On Lumivalkoinen (piano variation) Two Steps From Hell - The Thruth Unravels Nightwish - Ever Dream Robert Tepper - No Easy Way Out Queen - Show Must Go On Two Steps From Hell - Undying Love Guns N'Roses - Don't Cry Robert Miles - Fable And the last two songs are the same than the first two
@antti2phoenixbird About that getting boring thing - that was my first thought when I came across this video - "what new could I possibly see in another Toivonen tribute video". But when I actually watched this I was really surprised as there was nothing boring about it at all. There is something like a storyline, there's some new footage for me, the music is chosen perfectly to give the right feeling to the video. Max respect, Antti, this is awesome!
He was leading the rally with a huge several minutes marginal. But then again he had influenza and fever and was clearly fatiged in his final interview about 30 minutes before the accident. Rumours tell he was medicated with pseudoefedrin at that morning. Maybe he was in fairly good condition but gas-pedal stucked. His team-mate died a year earlier also in Corsica. It was considered to be a problem with gas pedal. Lancia had problems with stucking gas pedal at test drives during winter too but no one died luckily.
I always admired Henri's style of driving when i saw him win in UK lombard rally I thought he was going to write history but never thought it would be for tragedy he reminds me of Lewis Hamilton in a way that he just loves to race and win no matter how much hardship gets in his way RIP Henri
estos videos hacen que veas la verdadera pasion por las carreras y sobretodo el talento de alguien que amaba las carreras iba al limite, sin duda toivonen era pura pasion a los rallys, sin duda grande toivonen y grande este video.
@Marvdogger Well without you this video wouldn't have been possible in this form at least. Thank you very much for some of your Corsica footage you used in your own works, it came handy at the latter part of this video.
Teabag McPick I mean, rear engined porsches have really good traction on loose surfaces comparing conventional front engined rear wheel drive cars, and the understeer can be combatted by throttle feathering.
@@bradman7281 This is undoubtedly true & yet still, in the entire history of everything & everyone - Porsche don't have much to shout about in Rally honours lists. I'm just saying that given a free choice to go do any rally, who would pick Porsche over say, literally any other manufacturer? I love Porsche Le Mans cars of all eras. They are untouchable in their domination of endurance racing. Fair play to them for giving it a go, but rallying just ain't their bag.
Teabag McPick I think it's more because Porsche lacked any real drivers who could handle a Porsche off-road. Having the engine at the back also places the center of gravity at the back, which makes it extremely prone to snap oversteer, as well as lift off oversteer, and at the same time the lack of weight at the front produces understeer. While this two may seem like the cancel each other, they also make the card both predictable and unpredictable. Add the constantly changing terrain and you've got a car only a God could drive to its fullest. I agree that Porsche has not found success in rallying, but I think it was the result of both the car's quirks and the incompatibility of the drivers.
henri toivnonen and gilles villeneueve are the same and only two drivers that drive to the limit of machine that is beyond for other drivers ....\great video antti...
I could say a lot of things about this video, but I really feel like an idiot trying to think about something to post. Man, what a wonderful job... The "last" tributes are allways the best, BUT, remember: "Show Must Go On"... We are waiting.
nostalgia! na staré časy ,keď to ešte bolo rally,veľmi krásne video + hudba , samozrejme aj smutné ,najlepšie rally všetkých čias :( už to nikdy nebude také prestížne , rip from slovakia
How nice the video, I was excited to pity poor Henri: (That dates so bad the 1th may (Ayrton Senna 1994) and 2may (Henri Toivonen 1986): '( Sorry for my level of english because i'm spanish:)
To byll mistrz nad mistrzow!!!!! Zeby nie tragedia zaden seb by mu nie dorownal❤❤❤❤❤
“Henri was a little bit crazy. He was fast, and always getting faster, like a person in a trance. I could never be as fast.” - Walter Rohrl
Matt Runyon
He also said, that toivonen (when they both drove for opel) started slower than röhrl, but became faster as the stages progressed only to crash when he was finally faster than röhrl.
"I always thought that i'm the best overall driver, fast and durable. Until I met Henri...then I hesitated." -W.R."

True legends will never be forgotten.
The best tribute I've ever watched!! I was in the forests of Yorkshire, 1985....as a kid when Henri and the S4 arrived.👍
You lucky bastard.. I was born 1981 in Finland.. Learned about the greatest from clips and books..
Senna of dirty tracks

Greatest champ. Still impressed more than 30 years later. Lovely video. Big thanks!
"it could be my last, for a very long time"
I'm glad this turned out to be false! your videos are truly magical. they capture the spirit of the human experience.
If only Lancia cared about Toivonen's cry in the Tour de Course, I believe we'd have soon much more of him. Rest in Peace, Toivo
Henri Toivonen, Sergio Cresto, Freddie Mercury and Robert Miles...4 heroes in the same video. I really like your videos, great job!!!!
Same
really well done
the way he made that sunbeam dance was incredable

Grazie per aver fatto sognare le vecchie generazioni quando la lancia non era seconda a nessuno nel mondo riposa in pace leggenda dei rally ❤👋🇮🇹
Ho i brividi, emozioni!!! Forse il più bel video che io abbia mai visto su quest'uomo...grandissimo!!!
Ei tämän mahtavempaa kunnianosoitusta Henrille voi tehdä ! Tässä kiteytyy yhteen koko Henkan mahtavuus. Kyyneleet valui poskia myöten viimeisen 2 minuutin ajan. Kiitos tästä Antti
I was wondering how Toivonen would have done today in the modern 4wd cars. I suspect some serious ass kicking.
Thank you very much for making this. It contains a lot of footage i have never seen before. It was beautiful and moving to watch. Regards!
35 years... never forgotten 🇫🇮 😞
My spirit animal, almost forgot that it was exactly Toivonen that set a direction of my life. Love him.
Best tribute to Henri Toivonen. Thank you.
A true driving hero.
Thanks for all, Henry and Sergio
Rest in peace Henri and Sergio, you gave the sport your all. Great job Antti for the clip,most of the content is rare.
As imagens de Toivonen com os Lancia 037 e Delta são muito top. Um verdadeiro mito!👏👏👏👏
Complimenti per il video!!!!!!! TOIVONEN SARA' SEMPRE IL MIGLIORE!!!!!!!
Gracias por haber nacido y ser mi ídolo!!!!!
Buen y emotivo video. Henri uno de los mejores. Descansen en paz Henri y Sergio

most tribute videos in my opinion has the soul of the person from who is it made from. this definitely has the soul of Henri Toivonen
That was an absolutely great, skilled footage
RIP Henri & Sergio
25 years without Henri, we miss you Henkka!!
Fantastic video. I remember all the highs and the lows as if it was yesterday - DW
Here's the songlist:
Apocalyptica - Farewell
Yö - Rakkaus On Lumivalkoinen (piano variation)
Two Steps From Hell - The Thruth Unravels
Nightwish - Ever Dream
Robert Tepper - No Easy Way Out
Queen - Show Must Go On
Two Steps From Hell - Undying Love
Guns N'Roses - Don't Cry
Robert Miles - Fable
And the last two songs are the same than the first two
