elephino should be qualifying in the top 5 on the gridelephino should be qualifying in the top 5 on the grid
I need some help to prove or disprove something.

In a newsgroup, this was posted...
"Henri Toivonen got it round Estoril in a 1.18.1 during the 1986 Portuguese Rally. To put that in perspective, Senna took pole in the Grand Prix that year in a 1.16.7. And yes, the track was dry for the F1 cars."

Can anyone tell me more about this, or if it is true/false/both.

I have done a little bit of research and it has possibly come from a book called "In Like
a Lamb...Out Like a Lion!"

Anyone?
