The PSWRT will run to cars on the upcoming Rallye de France.
In addition to Petter Solberg’s Citroën C4, the privateer team will run a Citroën Xsara for Yvan Muller. The Frenchman, who will be codriven by Gilles Mondesir, will drive the same car Solberg used in the championship in 2009, but with a new chassis.
“ I think this will be good fun for both our team and for Yvan”, says Petter Solberg. “The Xsara is extremely good on tarmac, and I’m confident Yvan will enjoy driving it. I do know him a bit from before, he is really a great guy, and also a very good driver! I’m sure we will have a great weekend in France, and a good rally.”
41 year old Yvan Muller is from the Alsace region of France.
He is currently leading the drivers WTCC Championship, 5 points ahead of Gabriele Tarquini. Yvan Mullers team is also leading the Manufacturers Championship.
