Former WRC-star Jari-Matti Latvala took his Toyota Celica ST 165 to victory in the Classic category at the Rallylegend meeting in San Marino. Juha Kankkunen and Miki Biasion \u2013 seven world titles among them \u2013 were quick to congratulate the Fin.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rallylegend<\/a> is quickly turning into a must-see rally festival, bringing together both modern WRCs and classic Group B and Group 4 machinery. Wanna see a Lancia Delta Integrale fly? The Pirelli jump on the show stage is just the place to see it happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Principal’s party<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It looked like the organisers had managed to reunite more rally stars than ever before for this twentieth edition of Rallylegend. Markku Al\u00e9n for example, happy to meet up with his old teamboss Cesare Fiorio once more. Latvala, team principal at Toyota Gazoo Racing WRT, took part in a Toyota Celica ST 165 from his personal collection. His counterpart at M-Sport, Malcolm Wilson, was happy to be present in a spectator capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harri and Kalle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With Biasion, Al\u00e9n and Kankkunen, Lancia\u2019s top drivers from the eighties were reunited once more. Jimmy McRae was present, as was our columnist Christian Geistd\u00f6rfer. Most remarkable was the father-son outing Harri and Kalle Rovanpera had at Rallylegend. The newly crowned WRC champion and his dad made sure to make a stop after the Pirelli Jump to greet the crowds. Ren\u00e9 Arnoux was another prominent guest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We shouldn\u2019t forget Rallylegend is a real competition and not just a show. Next to Latvala taking the win in the Classic category, Luca Pedersoli was unbeatable in the WRC category in his 2011 DS3. In the Historic section, there was no stopping Mauro Argento and his 1969 Porsche 911 S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dovizioso goes rallying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen I came to Rallylegend, a decade ago, I thought I was in a unique and original event. Today has become a big rally party also and I am happy to have been here again,\u201d Latvala declared. Andrea Dovizioso, retiring from MotoGP, was happy to see a dream come true, driving a Lancia 037.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
