Fantastic achievement in Estonia and just goes to show that the same rule applies as in most sports in that its about practice, practice and more practice and not just talent. Oliver has had more seat time testing and on events than any other driver his age I can think of so good to see that come to fruition. Also the move from the Fabia to the Yaris in Rally 2 probably didnt hurt..
Quote from this thread in 2019 about his time in the American Rally Championship, shows just how much experience 'young' Solberg has...

Will Oliver get more Rally1 chances in 2025, are there any signals?
Funny and sad.Quote:

Will they bring 6 cars or just bench Pajari or just rotate Pajari x Solberg? So many questions, so many drivers and not so many cars to drive.. Both Pajari and Solberg definitely deserve full season, and I have to say it, Katsuta doesn't deserve Rally1 seat IMO.. He is fast, but can't catch the speed of the best guys on Friday and if he eventually does, he crashes.
