yes but for the moment.. no answer about rally and rallycross...
“Petter Solberg and Subaru have agreed that Petter Solberg is free to enter any brand of the car he elects for participation in the WRC in 2009 and beyond.
Petter Solberg will use the nearest future to sort out the possibilities to re-enter the WRC for 2009.”

WRC IS ON FIRE!! :hot:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I expect an announcemnet of what car he drives soon, all we have to speculate now is it a Ford or C4.
I suspect a Ford, but would like to see hIm in a C4.
Sure Petter will go to Ford or Citroen ..
So Prodrive support Adapta next year...
Otsberg one of the S14 driver, it is ok
But for the second wheel ... ?? What do you think between
- PG Andersson ??
- Petter Solberg ??
- Guy Wilks ??
- Marcus Grönholm ??
The main question now is which car Petter will drive...I think that all the seats in Citroen are covered and one missing in Stobbart.Am I right?So,we should expect a Petter-Focus perticipation?This way the strength between the two teams (Ford-Citroen) will be well-balanced.What do you think??
It is still uncertain how many cars Adapta World Rally Team will run next season. Like the situation is now, it can be from one to four cars. The team has two S12B and two S14 available. However, it is definitely that Mads Østberg are to be found in one of the two-S14 cars in eight wrc rallys.
Rally Norway will be Østbergs first rally in 2009, so no RI. He will do a 3 day test in Norway in jan and he will also start in the two first rallys in the Norwegian championship with the S14.
Is there anything official in that regards?Quote:

Looking at the current balance in the teams Citroen have, Loeb, Sordo, Ogier, Rautenbach, Novikov and Atko, that 6, and some of those are 8 rounds only drivers.Quote:

Then there are the likes of Aava in the Ramsport Ford,
Based on that I reckon it will be a Ford, but maybe others will know more about what level of sponsorship Petter has, and which of those two maunfacturers are stronger in Nordic market. We normally think Ford is teh dominant in Nordic countries but Kenneth Hansen has a big Citroen connections so maybe its not so straight forward.
