He has two titles now in RX. Why shouldn´t he go for two titles in WRC? (Know it sounds a bit crazy, but with Petter you never know, right?)Quote:

Petter has already confirmed he will be doing more rallycross in 2016, with a potential Dakar drive in 2017:

Because he doesn't have a VW? Also it seems to me that he enjoys rallycross far more than he did rallying, and it's almost certainly a damn sight cheaper.Quote:

about Petter selling his RX-cars.
He has something ready for next year, maybe contract with a factoryteam.
From the article:
"Do you already have an agreement with another manufacturer?- It may be so, but I can not go out with any info of the current state.
If you are building a new car, well that work need to begin soon?
- Well, if we are to build a new car then it is so.
So you can end up in a factory team where you get a finished car?
- So it may be.
So what factory team could that be for Petter?
And is it in the World or Global series?
Or could it be; http://rallytakeover.kinja.com/pette...ale-1737612800

Hardly qualifies as a 'World' series; 3 continents...hmm
I believe three continents is the minimum required by the FiA to class a Championship as "World".Quote:
