Behind the wheel of this particular blue-and-white berlinette was the legendary French rally driver Jean-Luc Thérier, with Marcel Callewaert as co-driver.
The historic achievement in Corsica
The 1973 Tour de Corse was the 13th and final round of the first official World Rally Championship (WRC). Alpine-Renault had secured the constructors' title that season early, but closed the year domestically with an unprecedented demonstration of dominance.
Thérier and Callewaert fought in the number #7 car to a third place on the stage. The full stage was occupied by the Alpine A110 edition:
#1 Jean-Pierre Nicolas / Michel Vial
#5 Jean-François Piot / Jean de Alexandris
#7 Jean-Luc Thérier / Marcel Callewaert
Specifications of the real factory car
Where the standard street cars had lighter engines, this factory car (Works Car) was specifically groomed for the rugged Corsican tarmac:
Engine: Rear placed 1.8-litre (1796 cc) four-cylinder Cléon-Alu engine.
Power: About 175 hp, which was a huge amount for a car of this size at the time.
Weight: Only 710 kg. Thanks to the ultra-light body of fiberglass and a stripped-down interior, the car had a spectacular horsepower-to-weight ratio.
Drive: Rear-wheel drive with a 5-speed manual transmission.
Thanks in part to the performance of Jean-Luc Thérier (who won three WRC rallys with Alpine that season), the A110 went into the books as one of the most successful and agile rally cars in history
