Obviously the champion was not going to be missing. Who else but Johan Kristoffersson to succeed… Johan Kristoffersson? Crowned world champion Rallycross in 2022, the first campaign of the electric era, for the 5e time in his career, the Swede decided to put his crown on the line.

Like last year, Johan Kristoffersson will be at the wheel of the Volkswagen RX1e operated by the family structure Kristoffersson Motorsport. He will also find his same teammates there as in 2022: Ole Christian Veiby and Gustav Bergström.

« This is going to be fun, anticipates the Nordic. We are clearly the hunted, but it's a position I appreciate. The competition was already tough last year, and now we have Sébastien Loeb who is coming – and everyone knows what he is capable of.

It's good that we had the opportunity to drive during the winter and we did what we could to optimize our cars, but I'm absolutely sure the other teams did the same. It will be exciting to see who did their homework best. »
