Renault R11 Turbo Rallye du Portugal

From its humble beginnings, the Renault 11 spawned a number of sports versions, followed closely by competition versions. It would only be in 1987, however, that the big cheese at Renault decided to place it in the world championship in the hands of Jean Ragnotti. Its balanced chassis, along with its pilot’s skills associated to Pierre Thimonier’s co-piloting, quickly set the world on fire. This model, bearing the number 4, was engaged in the Portugal Rallye with 37 specials. After 4 intense days of racing, the team came second.
