The 1986 Lombard RAC Rally marked a milestone. This was the last time the awesome Group B machines would see World Rally Championship action in Europe before being banned after a season of tragedy and controversy. The British round would ensure these 'supercars' would go out with a dramatic bang! The four-day event was shrouded in controversy following Peugeot's disqualification from the previous round, but the politics was put aside as the drivers battled for victory.
