Speaking to Norwegian outlet Parkferme, Solberg confirmed ongoing discussions but stressed that no agreements have been finalized yet. He noted that the project has been in development for some time, but progress must be made โ€œstep by stepโ€ and nothing is guaranteed without a signed contract.

A potential link with Subaru is gaining momentum.
Rumours suggest Solberg may be negotiating with Subaruโ€”the brand with which he won his 2003 world titleโ€”as the Japanese manufacturer is reportedly considering an official return to the WRC. Another possible route could involve Prodrive, though this seems less likely while the team remains committed to the Dacia Sandriders program. AutoSport reports that David Richards would only re-enter the WRC if it made sense as part of a manufacturer-backed project.

Upcoming regulation changes could create new opportunities.
With current WRC rules expiring at the end of 2026, new technical regulations starting in 2027 are expected to attract more manufacturers and independent teams. Solberg believes this shift is crucial for the future of the championship, bringing more brands, teams, and chances for drivers.

The Solberg family legacy continues.
Oliver Solberg, Petterโ€™s son, will race for Toyota Gazoo Racing in the WRCโ€™s top category in 2026, marking the familyโ€™s continued presence at the highest level. Meanwhile, Petter continues to work from his base in Torsby, Sweden, hoping to have his team project ready ahead of the new 2027 regulations.
 
Now when you read the above post...
And you are aware that Toyota built an AWD 2.0L turbo GR86 with Corolla GR running gear, and your aware that the GT86 and BRZ are the same car, it starts to get the brain working... ๐Ÿ‘€1000070904.jpg
