The people behind Group B, including the co-drivers.

With Biasion

Born in Bassano del Grappa on 28 October 1957, Siviero partnered Miki Biasion for his entire world championship career from 1980 to 2001. In the Group B years:

  • 1982 – eighth on the Rallye Sanremo in a Conrero Opel Ascona 400.
  • 1983 – European champions in a Lancia 037.
  • 1984–85 – regular podiums for Lancia, including second in Corsica 1984 and Portugal 1985.
  • 1986 – their first world championship win, on Rally Argentina in the Delta S4.

They went on to win the 1988 and 1989 world titles in Lancia Deltas.

Statistics on this page cover world championship rallies from January 1982 to December 1986, excluding the annulled 1986 Rallye Sanremo, and are counted from the entry lists and results in Jonkka’s World Rally Archive. ‘Starts’ means appearances on an entry list.

Biasion’s co-driver: European champion in 1983, first world win in Argentina 1986.
