The Greatest car driver ever in motorsports! These drivers really flouts the death! 200 km/h in narrow gravel roads or asphalt roads or snowy roads. Alen drove and (maybe) still drive maximum both of them three.
@kekkonen10 He still has the record number of Stage Wins, with 796. Won in all types of cars and could race the wheels of anything. Great diversity and speed.
Alén and McRae were the only Rallye drivers I ever cheered for... Röhrl was sublime, Ari and Juha were fast, Henri was a superstar, Stig and Hannu revered, Michelle was unique!
@MargusKiistheCritic He got the 78 title (which was the FIA drivers' cup for Rallying) and therefore isn't mention as an official WRC title, which started from the 1979 season. He still had the record number of Stage Wins though with 796.
Old comment but it wasn't thanks to the rain. It was thanks to him. Driving a RWD in the rain on gravel stages requires more skill and concentration than doing so in an AWD car. Not even touching horsepower :)
Markku Alen, no fué nunca campeón de mundo, aunque pudo serlo en mas de una ocasión, de hecho en 1978 fué campeón de la copa FIA, es decir lo mismo pero con otro nombre. Tal vez no fué el mejor en su época, pero siempre estubo entre los mejores y, en Finlandia era inalcanzable. Para mi es el mejor.
They are all champions, I think. Driving those so difficult roads. ...and I think I might get my computer driver gear from my bedroom, under some *umm* cartboard boxes and drive again. This video is for Markku but Ari!
Huomasin huutonetissä aika mehukkaan kohteen keräilytavarat osiossa. Alenin paita missä oli Räikkösen, Häkkisen, Alenin yms nimmareita. Se paita on Alenin Martini racing ajoilta sellanen kauluspaita ja siinä on kaikki lancian teamin sponsori merkit kiinni. 8) Ettikääs tällänen sieltä ku "Markku Alenin paita MM-tason nimikirjoituksilla".
yes, not crappy music. the supercharged enginesound is the second best sound in the world. Only audi S1 was better :) Luckily i was able to go watch the last finnish rally with these 1000hp monsters.
It just baffles me why I have to listen to horseshit dutch pseudometal in a Markku Alen tribute video. After all this cat won 1978 FIA rally cup with Fiat Mirafiori and continued to create havoc with Lancia Stratos and 037. The 1986 S4 Integrale team of finnish dynamites Toivonen and Alen is something that only referees can deny - or death.
Maximum attack. The sound makes the video very emotive. But I prefer engine sound. Markku is one of the greatest.
Big Balls Markku Allen...respect from Croatia
maximum attack !!! words that never be forgotten...
He was a flying fin!!!
I liked his style!!!
Always haunting the 1st place!!!
one of the greatest driver of all time, wonderful tribute !
The best Rally Driver Ever
One of the best of all time, a legend!
A GIANT among them all.
The best of the best!
The Champion without the title.
never a man to let his mastery of English dull his ability to drive anything, anywhere fast at any angle.......grazie Markku.....the Italian Finn!!

In my opinion the music was a good touch the lyrics fit well with the legend who could tame a beast going 80 down a narrow dirt road
The truest champion of 1986
My favourite driver. The 1986 championship should've been his. He was the better driver that season despite Lancia not being the best constructor.

Back in '85 1000 Lakes day 1.. That one day (thanks to rain) when he and his 037 were flying against Peugeots and Quattros. Amazing day that was.

Alen did win FIA Drivers Cup 1978 before wrc drivers champoinships started.
Great Video, good choice of song and great editing, it makes justice to Markku Alen.
He is a world champion...
It is sad really that Markku never won a world title and by God he deserved at least one!
He did
For 11 days but it was enough.
He is still mr. MAXIMUM ATTACK and no one can take it from him.
More than WC.
superb driver and Lancia Delta was such a briliant car ..
great video :)
Markku Maestro... Leyenda 👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
Il mio pilota preferito di sempre, piede giù e maximum attak.
its a shame that they took away the 86 champ title from him. he totaly deserve it...
Markku "maximum attack" Allen, great.
Maximum Attack!!!!!! He's the World Champion, that's it. -Grampasso-

Markku Alen + Within temptation = great video
thank u Joost
Great rally driver! 5 stars! =)
um verdadeiro deus do volante viva markku alen parabens por dares estes triunfos as estas marcas fiat e lancia
My brother has one, he was in Lancias 2006 birthday party. An there was Dr. "pohjat" ALen too.
They are all champions, I think. Driving those so difficult roads. ...and I think I might get my computer driver gear from my bedroom, under some *umm* cartboard boxes and drive again. This video is for Markku but Ari!
In fact, we also saying it "maximum attack". So there is no outright translation. Just like Kimi Räikkönen is the "Iceman".
Within Temptation - Angels

The music must be the engine sound.
also this will be playing in cars 5

One of the greatests drivers ever. Pitty never became World Champion (he would have been if the WC for drivers began in 78 istead of 79)
This was for "Mknives"
Jos mä haluun ajaa pohjat, mä ajan pohjat
How about Henri Toivonen and not Within Temptation ?
are they still calling it rally nowdays...
vai Markku
@Rentta
never
i not going!
another video ruin by silly music !
1000hp LMAO more like 550 or so
Less musick let right foot play song
