Petter is ready according to nwt.se and Bertil Klarin. P-G is on hold, looking for a car. http://www.nwt.se/sport/motorsport/article832323.ece
Confirmed Petter doing Sweden .....

Richard Tuthill in a Porsche is a nice surprise as well.
Modern Porsche on snow? That's crazy. No snow competition tyres for this car exist. He would have to drive on stock wide winter tyres :D
Porsche makes absolutely no sence for Sweden so i guess he wont start.
If it's the same Porsche than in this video... well not too modern. :)

I think Richard Tuthill drives a classic Porsche? http://farm1.static.flickr.com/170/4...ed548827c8.jpg

He doesn't look like a complete novice and the old car shouldn't be a problem in winter.
Anybody know what car P-G Anderson is trying to secure a budget for?
I think it depends also on the progress in his Proton - allseason - IRC deal... I doubt they would let him start with anything else in this case... If he's not in this race anymore, I believe in a Fabia.Quote:

The team is renamed, so no more sleepless nights for N.O.T. Wilson jr. is still in the game :) He's team mates with Mads Østberg and Henning Solberg. http://www.wrc.com/news/revamp-for-m...try/?fid=14026Quote:

I do not know why it is called M-Sport Stobart world rally team on WRC.COM as stobarts wont be involved at all.
WRC.COM need to get the correct facts./.....

Information only in swedish at the moment.
I notice PG is listed as a WRC car, surely that must mean another Fiesta? especially if Van Merjkstein forfeited their car to allow Petter to start that must mean there is less DS3's than Fiesta's and as only Ford and Citroen will have homologated new cars by Sweden it has to be a Fiesta, if its a WRC car.Quote:

Greetings from Ekshärad Dimitry
I have more information than that knowing someone in the team and Stobarts are not involved this year as they said no to sponsoring so why would they have a team without puting money in its like Castrol being on the cars but not putting money inQuote:

Seems he still needs some 40k EUR more... :-oQuote:

Is it still possible for PGA to change the car/category if he doesn't find enough money for Fiesta WRC???
Yes many people do not understand as a company don' t draws money in also can be a sponsor or partner!Quote:

On PG's web site the translation i am now reading,seems to say that one person has payed 200,000 euro for him to start in WRC car for Sweden.Can anyone else confirm this.Great news if true!
http://translate.google.com/translat...Ny%2FNyhet.htm
It is a foundation that has set aside 200 000€ for PG
More on the foundation here: http://translate.google.com/translat...stiftelsen.asp
Helmia is also supporting the Walfridssons + Petter Solbergs son Oliver in Motorsport: http://www.walfridsson.com/
Congratulations PG !
i think its 200000 kr not euro. at least it says that in the original text...this is about 23000 euro´s then.
Summary friday night tells that PG now got around 45000 Euros. That´s in two days my friends!
Amazing!
