The Lancia Stratos HF, bearing the distinctive Alitalia livery and the number 6, secured a second-place finish in the 1976 Rally Monte Carlo with the talented duo Björn Waldegård and Hans Thorszelius at the helm. Björn Waldegård, a pioneering Swedish rally driver, and his co-driver Hans Thorszelius were known for their exceptional teamwork and skill. The 1976 Rally Monte Carlo was unique for its challenging night stages, which tested drivers' navigation and driving precision under difficult conditions. The Lancia Stratos HF, renowned for its mid-engine layout and agility, excelled in the treacherous mountainous terrain. This rally is remembered for its mix of ice, snow, and tarmac, demanding the utmost from both car and crew, and Waldegård's impressive performance cemented his reputation as one of rallying's greats.
