Without full-time driving WRC or even in WRC2, Ole Christian Veiby is currently proving himself in World RX. However, the Norwegian has not forgotten his true passion: rally. Thus, he will participate in the Swedish Rally (February 9-12) in WRC2 as has been the case since 2021 and each round contested on snow (Arctic in 2021 and Sweden in 2020).

On the icy roads of Sweden, Ole Christian Veiby will be at the wheel of the Kristoffersson Motorsport Volkswagen Polo GTI R5. The Kongsvinger native knows this team very well since it is the one with which he usually races in World RX.

During the Swedish round, Ole Christian Veiby will receive a helping hand from Johan Kristoffersson, his teammate in the world championship Rallycross. The Swede will be present in an engineering role like a year ago when his friend competed in the Nordic event. After the 2e place in 2022 behind Andreas Mikkelsen, the Veiby-Kristoffersson duo is now aiming for victory.
