The two-time rally world champion Marcus Grönholm gets to try driving a WRC car again after a longer break. Grönholm participates in the Mythical Cars Rally in Italy at the end of May where he drives a Subaru.
55-year-old Grönholm will participate in seven stages and 78-kilometer asphalt rallies with his cartographer Timo Rautiainen. Rautiainen var Grönholms kartläsera also under VM -guldåren 2000 and 2002.
The Mythical Cars Rally which is open to cars from the A group and WRC cars from the period 1994-2021 will be staged on May 26-27.
The race is Grönholm’s first since the WC rally in Sweden in the winter of 2019.
– It’s been a while since I ran a race. The most important thing for me is to have some fun, nothing more. I don’t want people to expect big things from me, I’m not coming back as world champion. And I don’t drive like an idiot, says Grönholm.
