    I am not convinced a private WRC2 programme in a DS3 R5 will be all that good for his career.

    What happened to his Opel contract?

    An other year with the Adam R2 wouldn't make any sense, so leaving Opel was imo the best thing he could do. It's only strange no other manufacturer picked him up!

    I think everyone has to bring money, no matter what they say publically. And money for rallying is rare in sweden. We have so many talented guy who missed the train during the years. I´m glad Fredrik Ahlin will do the BRC and oc we have Tidemand.

    Let´s hope for his try this year and I know his goals stays. Youngest WDC ever!

    Any idea of the entrylist of the newly created Citroën WRC2 Ultimate Challenge

    Looks like Bonato and Bergkvist are part of the challenge regarding their program...

    Bergkvist? He did crowdfunding for his home rally, so he needs big help to do a WRC2 program..

    Take a look at Emil Bergkvist FB from preparations before Rally Sweden. Zero-car in first round of SRC. WRC tires on Evo IX.

    Saw this nowhere else on the forum so I'm throwing this in here:
    Emil Bergkvist plans to do select rounds of the season with J-motorsport. He goes on to mention that he felt at home in the car and that the plan is to do "half a dozen events" in their DS3.

    Source, his FB.
