Rothmans White Wall Art

Rothmans White — 4 museum-grade prints in this palette. The Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 won consecutive WRC manufacturers' championships in 1985 and 1986 — the only French manufacturer to dominate Group B before the FIA banned the class. Its transverse mid-engine, four-wheel-drive layout represented a different engineering answer to Audi's longitudinal quattro concept, and the Rothmans-sponsored livery became as recognisable on forest stages as Martini stripes on Lancias. The Porsche 962 and its 962C evolution dominated Group C and IMSA GTP through the mid-1980s, winning Le Mans outright in 1986 and 1987 among a broader streak of Sarthe success. Rothmans sponsorship defined the factory team's visual identity — white upper body, navy lower body, gold and red stripe stack — and became shorthand for an era when turbo flat-six endurance cars rewrote lap records and team strategy alike. The Porsche 956 won Le Mans outright in 1982, 1983, 1984, and 1985 — the prototype that launched Group C as the defining sportscar formula of the 1980s. Stefan Bellof's 1983 pole lap of 3:15.
