Notes: 298 starters, 51 finishers

Start cities were Almería, Athens, Glasgow, Frankfurt, Monte Carlo, Oslo, Reims, 
Rome and Warsaw. Almost 150 cars were excluded after the first Burzet stage. This was due to
the road being blocked by a Capri which was wedged in the rapidly accumulating snow.
As all following competitors couldn't complete the stage, they were all excluded for
being over the time limit! The caused a major upset, and for the rest of the run
down to Monte Carlo, some excluded competitors tried to block the remaining cars
so that they too would become OTL, and the rally organisers wouldn't have a rally.

Michelle Petit is also known as "Biche".
