  Driver Profile: Miki Biasion
Miki Biasion's, 36, international breakthrough in rallying was winning the European Championship in 1983.
Nowadays it seems that Miki has lost the sharpest edge in his driving, but he certainly is still a very fast and most of all, a very reliable driver.
In 1995 he seems not to have found a seat in a top WRC team.
