The 1978 San Remo rally was a mixed gravel and tarmac affair, as it was only later the rally became an all tarmac event. It was also the scene of the only World Rally Championship event won by the Lancia Stratos in 1978. Driver Markku Alen, with co-driver Ilkka Kivimäki, scored his only Stratos win on the event, one which suited the powerful short wheelbase Lancia well.
