El MONSTRUO del grupo b. Audi Quattro S1 E2

600 hp. No traction control. No ABS. No electronic aids. And a mountain road two meters wide. This was Group B, and this is the story of the Audi Quattro S1 E2. The car that changed rallying. To understand the Audi Quattro S1 E2, you first have to understand what Group B was. In 1982, the FIA ​​created a new category for the World Rally Championship: Group B. The rules were simple. Only two hundred units had to be manufactured to homologate the car. With such open regulations, manufacturers did exactly what you could imagine. They put the engine wherever they wanted, used all the available technology, and imposed no power limit. The result was the fastest, most dangerous, and most spectacular category in rally history. Cars with 400, 500, and 600 hp. Competing on mountain roads open to the public. With spectators just two meters above the asphalt. Audi entered the rally scene in 1980 with an idea no one had ever tried before in the category: four-wheel drive. At that time, rally cars were either front-wheel or rear-wheel drive, but Audi said: all four. The first Quattro arrived in 1980. It was already faster than anything else on the grid. But Audi didn't stop there. In 1984 came the Sport Quattro, with a shorter chassis and a more powerful, lighter engine. And in 1985, the definitive version: The Audi Quattro S1 E2. The car that pushed Group B to its absolute limit. On May 2, 1986, at the Tour de Corse, the final nail in the coffin for Group B cars was hammered home. On the special Corte-Taverna stage, Henri Toivonen, driving a Lancia, and his co-driver, Sergio Cresto, took a right-hand corner... The car left the road, plunged into a ravine, and burst into flames. Toivonen was twenty-seven years old. Cresto was thirty-six; there were no survivors. Three weeks after that accident, the FIA ​​announced the banning of Group B at the end of the 1986 season. 🏁 CIRCUIT: Mediterranean Stage 🎮 SIMULATOR: EA WRC ⚙️ HARDWARE: MOZA R5 In this video: History of the Audi Quattro S1 E2 The golden age of the WRC.
