It seams like Petter has something big going on...
Maybe he could be the first privateer who win the wrc title since Ari Vatanen in 1981?
You can get 1/25 in odds for Petter winning WRC 2009 (as "any other driver"). If Petter have a good car he should have a realistic chance of winning in 2009.
Are you being serious?Quote:

That depends on the car. If Petter has a top priority Focus or C4 he will have maybe 1:10 inn winning the championship, at 1:25 in odds.Quote:

But anything else than a top priority car, even a M2 car, would make that bet a waste of money bet.
LOL, sure yes if you can get the best car for him and lousier cars for the rest.Quote:

The only way to figure out who's the best is.. Like in Norway: make a cup.. No exuses. . And of course ..everybody knows that Loeb would'nt be de obvious winner.. Maybe, Solberg, or Latvala, or Hirvonen..? maybe someone else...

1) It is still "next weekend"
2) It is the decision witch is due this weekend. It says nothing of the publication of the result of the decision.
I am probably biased in the fact that I would like Petter to continue in the WRC, purely to give something back to Phil. He`s stood by Petter through all the crap over the past few years, and (Ok he may have been paid a decent amount) remained loyal to their overall objective. I think we perhaps forget the crutial role of the co-driver in suceeding in rallying,and when, as Subaru did before Christmas, the plug is pulled the driver is always in the spotlight.On the matter of what Petter will drive in Norway, we will have waited a hell of a long time to find out, so another few days or so is not going to make any difference.I along with most of you on this Forum hope that whatever they both compete in, it will be on as equal footing as it can be to an M1 car.I think Petter and Phil, could deliver if this were made possible, and silence those doubters as to their ability to challenge Sebastian. :s mokin:
I suppose that the teams should be Petter Solberg rally team with Petter as a driver and Adapta Rally team with Mads Ostberg as a driver.Quote:

Stobart shared the bill with Expert and friends, so my bet is that Henning will stick with Stobart
Why the new team will not be, RAMSPORT .. With Petter and one other driver as Galli or Duval or Marcussss ? Why not ?
