46 wins for the Delta in 6 years (all while Toyota/Subaru and Mitsubishi were trying hard to beat them) with an un-matched 6 consecutive WRC manufacturers championships from 1987 to 1992 inclusive... then they pulled out as they had proven their absolute dominance and decided to give the other manufacturers a chance.lol. 46 rally wins for Subaru before they pulled out in 2008. Decent record. You mean Martini decorated cars don't all look the same? Fun episode nonetheless, in your backyard so to speak...
Add in the 10 WRC rally wins for the 037 and S4 (and another WRC manufacturers championship for the 037)
Then add in the Stratos' 18 rally wins and 3 WRC championship results (1974/1975/1976)
and then add in the Fulvia results (even though it wasn't called the WRC back then)
and if you want to count them all under the same Fiat group umbrella, add in the 131 Abarth 3 WRC championship titles (1977/1978/1980)
Now THAT'S a decent record...
So that's WRC's For Fiat/Lancia in 1974/75/76/77/78/80/83/87/88/89/90/91/92 ...which is 13 titles in 19 years
please remind any Subaru fans of that next time they try brag about WRC wins. (which for the record was 3 consecutive titles in 1995/96 and 97 - and the 46 victories took them from 1990 to 2008 to amass - 18 years)
