DF on Ostberg switching to ERC in 2023...
But is that really such a bad thing for Østberg’s career? The ERC is a championship that appears to be growing in momentum and appeal, and in competing there he can be the star of the show – not a subplot winner in another category.
And, once again, it’ll afford Østberg the chance to try something new. He’s appeared in the ERC three times before, winning Rally Hungary in 2021, and done some of next season’s rallies in other championships and classes of cars, but a season-long push will be a fresh challenge for him.

Østberg in ERC is cool, both for him and the series.
Will be interesting to see how he can make a good program, and if any dealerships/importers can make it into a good finanancial year as well.
Maybe a manufacturer also see the benefit in having him drive their brand.

Given that he's been with the Citroen C3 for a while and helped development a lot, it seems likely Ostberg will stay with the car in 2023. He's also got a close relationship with Citroen in Norway.
I wonder if there will be many new Fabia RS cars available to be used in the ERC ?
