Time for a new challenge !

Following my success in the British Rally Championship last year, i felt the need to try something new, and take on a new challenge.

After a lot of hard work, effort and endless setbacks, I’ve managed to put a deal together to complete in the FIA European Rally Championship for the next 3 events at least. Taking part in Poland, Latvia, and Sweden and see how it goes!

This year I’ll be piloting a Skoda Fabia Rally 2 EVO ran by MAPO Motorsport.
Joining me in the co drivers seat is former WRC co driver Stephane Prevot, so I’m looking forward to learning from him too.

Very thankful that My loyal sponsors and supporters behind the scenes are back for more after being with me for the last two seasons and more. The one thing the last challenging few months has taught me is to rely on the loyal ones, they have stuck with me and kept to their word’s.

Also Thanks to my family and friends once again for their support, I definitely wouldn’t be doing this if it wasn’t for them. 🙏🏻

Looking forward to starting in just over a weeks time in Poland, and join the FIA ERC roadshow. Its been a competitive few rounds so far, so looking forward to getting stuck in, and seeing how we go. And of course…. Enjoy the Experience!

They started a crowdfunding on their facebook page also, as basically this almost collapsed their budget. I hope to be wrong, but without the help of a big sponsor, it is very 50/50 for them to be there...

Tom Kristensson Motorsport cancels the ERC program in 2023

It is with great sadness that Tom and Andreas now choose to stop competing in the ERC - European Rally Championship after 3 rounds, and with this also ends the partnership with Tagai Racing Technology and Citroën.
There are many small reasons for this decision. Everything from a feeling, to bigger challenges in working with budgets and the situation in the world right now, as well as some other things, says Tom.
Of course, I would have hoped for a perfect feeling and a really great season in a fantastic championship, but obviously that doesn't happen, unfortunately.
I have been fighting for so many years and learned never to do anything that doesn't feel 100% good or right. This with full respect for everyone involved - the Team, Andreas, Pirelli, Citroën Racing and above all for my own part that I choose to do this.
It's really not about me not wanting to drive a rally car. The will and the joy are there. But it needs to be done the right way. It is so important that the positive outweighs the negative in order to have the strength and be able to continue, concludes Tom.
There are still many activities and sponsor events going on and we are working on a new way forward.
In the middle of this, a request has appeared from a person who has been very involved in my rally effort in various ways. This concerned driving and being seen as well as evaluating various things at Hovdalasprinten in Hässleholm, which is part of the Swedish Championship Gravel Sprint as early as June 3rd.
We will therefore start there in one of GN Motorsport's Ford Fiesta Rally2 here. This felt like a good thing to do considering this situation and we have therefore chosen to accept this.
There are no more competitions planned right now, but we will see how the future develops.
We drive and enjoy in Hovdalasprinten and then we'll see.
Once again, we would like to extend a big and warm thank you to everyone involved.

What a brave guy co-driver James Fulton is, getting back into a rally car after the accident that cost his driver Craig Breen his life.

That´s true, but he was already in Rally de Portugal with Meeke.
