Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Dolomites, the 1970 Rally di San Martino di Castrozza was a tightly packed Italian tarmac rally known for its switchback ascents, rapid elevation changes, and stunning scenery. It favored lightweight, agile cars with confident handling in mountainous terrain.
The rally’s stages looped around San Martino and Trentino-Alto Adige, climbing and descending over narrow Alpine roads.
The high-altitude location meant drivers had to adapt to thinner air, lower grip, and rapid changes in weather.
Källström’s flowing pace and Häggbom’s precise notes gave the Lancia team a 1–2 finish, further solidifying their strength on twisty asphalt rallies.
The 1970 Rally di San Martino di Castrozza proved a masterclass in precision tarmac rallying, as the Lancia Fulvia reaffirmed its dominance in the Italian Alps.
