I was saddened to learn of the death of Hannu Mikkola who died on 26 February 2021 of cancer at the age of 78. He was one of my rallying heroes through the 1970s and 80s. I saw him in action many times here in Ireland and in the RAC and Scottish rallies. A quiet gentleman who brought 4 wheel drive it's early success in rallying in the form of the Audi Quattro and was crowned World Rally Champion in 1983 in the Quattro. Below is a selection of my images of him over the years.
