Austria

Biggest Winners

Drivers: Franz Wittmann

Cars: Audi

Models: Audi Quattro A2

  Although it does not occupy a prominent position on the international scene, rallies in Austria (races & drivers) over the years have proven to be quite consistent and consolidated.

  After all, which rally fan doesn’t know Franz Wittmann, one of the greatest rally winners of all time, one of the ‘gods of Rallying’?

  With a rich and traditional history that (according to the Rallymemory archive) began in 1910 (more precisely on June 26th) with the famous Osterreichische Alpenfahrt, which was contested until 1973, being interrupted, for the first time, from 1915 to 1922 and then from 1938 to 1948 - the period between world wars, and included in the calendar of the first WRC contested in 1973, precisely the year it was last held.

  But beyond Franz Wittmann and the Osterreichische Alpenfahrt, rallying in Austria offers much more. Top names like Raimund Baumschlager, Rudi and his son Manfred Stohl (two great adventurers) and the great Sepp Haider who, together with Franz Wittmann, are the only Austrian drivers to win in the WRC, to be more precise in New Zealand. And races, important races on the European calendar and truly classics like Janner, Arbo, Semperit and others that make Austrian rallies a consolidated and, above all, consistent sport.

  Total races in the Rallymemory file: 226

  Embora não ocupe uma posição de destaque no cenário internacional, os rallies na Austria (provas & pilotos) ao longo dos anos tem se mostrado bastante consistente, consolidado.

  Afinal, qual adepto dos rallys não conhece Franz Wittmann, um dos maiores vencedores de rallys de todos os tempos, um dos ‘deuses dos Rallys’?

  Com uma rica e tradicional historia que (de acordo com o arquivo Rallymemory) teve inicio em 1910 (mais precisamente em 26 de junho) com o famoso Osterreichische Alpenfahrt, que foi disputado até 1973, sendo interrompido, pela primeira vez, de 1915 a 1922 e depois de 1938 a 1948 -período entre guerras mundiais, e incluido no calendário do primeiro WRC disputado em 1973, justamente o ano de sua ultima realização.

  Mas, além de Franz Wittmann e do Osterreichische Alpenfahrt, os rallys na Austria oferecem muito mais. Nomes de primeira linha como Raimund Baumschlager, Rudi e seu filho Manfred Stohl (dois grandes aventureiros) e o grande Sepp Haider que, junto com Franz Wittmann, são os unicos pilotos austriacos a vencer no WRC, pra ser mais exato na Nova Zelandia. E provas, provas importantes no calendário europeu e verdadeiramente clássicas como o Janner, Arbo, Semperit e outros que fazem dos rallys austriacos um esporte consolidado e, principalmente, consistente.

  Total de provas no arquivo Rallymemory: 226
