Petter Solberg Fans Have Something To Look Forward To
[ January 28th, 2009 ] By: Charles Smith Posted in » Ramblings
It turns out that Petter will be racing in a Citroen Xsara in the upcoming Rally Norway. That’s some pretty exciting news, since it will be the first non Subaru he has competed in since the year 2000. Almost a decade ago.
Citroen Xsaras were fast a few years ago, and I wonder if Petter will be able to claw out a decent position in a non-factory supported car. However, for all we know he could be factory supported by Citroen, but I doubt it if he is running a Xsara.
I’m real excited to see Petter back for another year.

I’m very sad and actually quite shocked on the leave that Subaru is taking from WRC.
It’s just so surprising to me that half their business model is based on WRC, yet they’ve pulled out for the 09 season. Budget cuts is one thing, but completely pulling out is another.
Atleast Petter’s back though!
