Mikkola wins rally
NZPA-Reuter Glasgow Hannu Mikkola of Finland came from the tail of the field to win for the fourth time the Scottish motor rally which ended on Wednesday. His Audi Quattro broke a steering arm on the first of the 49 special stages and he dropped to last place among the 61 crews. However, Mikkola, who will drive a Quattro in New’

He eventually won by half a minute in the penalties tally from the Briton Jimmy Mcßae in an Opel Ascona, with Henri Toivonen of Finland third in another Ascona. Mikkola profile, Pl 5
