This will be the first time that Patrik and Göran does an WRC-event together. It will be the first time Patrik does an international WRC event. Göran on the other hand has done several seasons with Thomas Shie and they made several great events both in the Norwegian championship and in the world championship.
- “We won the Norwegian championship in 2005 and 2006 and came in second 2007” says Göran.

Patrik meet the team last week and had the opportunity to drive the car a little:
