The seventh edition of the Firestone Rally, held from 13 to 15 April 1973, was not only a qualifying event for the Spanish Rally Championship, but also for the European Championship. The rally, organised by the Real Peña Motorista Vizcaya, had the city of Bilbao as its starting and finishing point, with the neutralisation in Santander. As a novelty, the route also included some dirt sections.

The list of entrants was long, with 71 vehicles out of the 96 entered finally taking the start. There were several well-known drivers, among the best known being Sandro Munari with the official Lancia Stratos and Pinto with the also official Fiat 124 Spider. In addition, the BMWs of the official Swedish team (Asterhag and Allanson) and the spectacular Ferrari Dino of the Englishman Lipton were also candidates for victory. In total there were 28 foreign drivers present at the race.

Of all of them, only 27 survivors managed to reach the finish line, after passing the stages of Peña Angulo, Arceniega-Mercadillo, La Bien Aparecida, La Revilla-Los Tornos, Incinillas-Soncillo, Palombera, Castillo Pedroso, Peñacabarga and El Vivero, some of them repeated up to three times. The winners were Sandro Munari and Mario Mannucci, who, as a historical fact, gave the legendary Lancia Stratos its first victory.
