"It's time to re-establish history" - so says the press release from Sweden World Rally Team with the aim to give a Swedish drivers the chance to compete in the WRC in 2012.
An awesome line-up behind the initiative, including Bjorn Waldegard, Stig Blomqvist, Thomas Rådström, Jan Pettersson, Leif Asterhag and Staffan Parmander
There will be an exciting start to the year 2012 Swedish Rally, despite the dreary winter weather here around the Mälardalen region.
A long-awaited press releases by e-mail came from Sweden World Rally Team.
In the mail, you can read:
"- 1979, Bjorn Waldegard the first World Champions. Five years later it was again time for a Swedish to step onto the throne when Stig Blomqvist drove home the World Championship title.
- Rally was red hot and is one of the great popular sports in Sweden. The money flowed and re-growth flourished. But then something happened. While the sport was growing more and more international, they were Swedish talent increasingly difficult to deliver. Talent there, but they never got the chance. Until now.
- Sweden World Rally Team is a joint effort by some of the biggest rally profiles of all time. Together, they have hundreds of World Cup starts, delsegrar and World Cup titles in track list. And a tremendous skill.
-Sweden World Rally Team is an elite investment that gives a Swedish drivers the chance to compete in the WRC class already in 2012. "
Monday, January 9 is Sweden World Rally Team press conference and it will be interesting to see what, or what, drivers will be matched up.
The rumor says that it's Patrik Sandell to drive a Mini in Sweden Championship and some WRC events.
Great news with Sweden WRT. If it's MINI they chose I expect it to be run by Grifone. They seem - together with Motorsport Italia - to be the team that now has experience running the MINI WRC car.
One note: I would chose PG over Sandell
Think PG is busy that weekend...........
