| Some practice shots from Silverstone. Volvo #1 for Cecotto/Olofsson. |
Granberg and Lindström shared the #2 car.
|
 |
 |
| The Eggenberger Sierra #3 for Niedzwiedz/Soper - a character building seson for the swiss team. |
Eggenberger's second car was driven by Müller Jr and Dieudonné
|
 |
 |
| Rover #7 (Hahne/Brancatelli) in the well known livery. |
Rover #8 (Walkinshaw/Percy) in the well known livery. |
 |
 |
| But Rover #9 (Allam/Hulme), the eventual winner, had different sponsorship. |
HWRT Sierra: Grohs and Needell.
|
 |
 |
This CiBiEmme car was for Rossi and Micangeli.
|
Another CiBiEmme car for Bosshard and Sasiambarrena.
|
 |
 |
| The CiBiEmme #16 car for veteran Grano and Cipriani. |
Another BMW for Giroux/Metge. |
 |
 |
| The exotics: a Toyota Supra for Morris/Beacham... |
...
and a Mitsubishi Starion for Brodie/Sheene, a car which unfortunately
hardly took part in the BSCC, just like the Toyota on the left. |
 |
 |
| Not every Rover is a TWR car: here the Leech/McGrath car. |
A British BMW: Robinson, Birrane and Simmiss.
|
 |
 |
| The second Australian team visiting Europe: the Mobil HDT car, this time with British drivers Woodman/Cleland. |
Division 2: the Linder BMW of Vogt/Oestreich... |
 |
 |
This second Linder car was shared by Enge and Vogt.
|
... and a Mercedes pack consisting of Carlsson and Serge Power cars. |
 |
 |
| The Alfetta GTV's were replaced by 75 V6 cars now. This is the Jolly Club car. |
Yet another exotic: the Dutch Mazda 929 rotary, with a solid performance here. |
 |
 |
A prodsaloon Mercedes for Lepp and Eccles.
|
The Seikel Motorsport semiworks Audi 80 of Seikel/Suster. |
 |
 |
Stallmann and Ley with their Golf.
|
Hodgetts and Moss, Corolla.
|
 |
 |
Minshaw and Hill in a second CHMS Corolla.
|
Denny Hulme made a welcome return to racing in Europe. |
 |

 |
 |
| Row 1: two TWR Rovers. |
Row 4: Schnitzer BMW and Eggenberger Sierra. |
 |
The start! V8s in the lead.
|
 |
 |
| An unlucky race for the RAS Volvo of Cecotto and Olofsson. |
Walkinshaw and Percy finished third. |
 |
 |
| The #10 Schnitzer car retired. |
But this #11 car finished second. |
 |
 |
| Carlsson Mercedes: Vojtech and Micangeli, fifth in class. |
Another Carlsson Mercedes, the car of Werginz and Baron. |
 |
 |
| Rouse and Sears were unlucky and finished just 13th. |
Müller Jr and Dieudonné brought the first Sierra home in fifth. |
 |
 |
Two fighting groups: Grano/Cipriani (BMW 635), Vogt/Oestriech (BMW 325) and Curnow/Longman (Escort).
|
If
this picture actually is from the race itself, then Postan/Cox
(Renault) did start the race; I had my doubts. Howling past is the
Rover of Hahne/Brancatelli.
