“I'm so excited to be at the start with the C4 WRC. We spent three days testing. The car performs very well. I really hope I can fight up front,” comments Petter.

Winner of a single event on asphalt (Tour de Corse 2003), the Norwegian will try to join the fight between the four official Citroën and Ford drivers?

"The Rally of Spain is a difficult race with very fast roads. At high speed, do you have to have a certain confidence to be able to brake as late as possible? without doing too much so as not to go off the road. In Spain, there is no dirt to help drivers get through certain corners! »

The start of the first special stage will be given on Friday at 8:46 a.m. Mikko Hirvonen will lead the way.
