2009-01-08 13:33 CET Två svenska förare klara för Rally-VM Sverige får två rallyförare i PWRC 2009: Patrik Sandell/Emil Axelsson kör för Red Bull Rally Team och Patrik Flodin/Göran Bergsten för Uspenskiy Rally Tecnica (URT). - Vi satsade tidigt på de här talangerna och det är enastående att de nu kommit så långt, säger Anders Dawidson, förbundskapten i Rally. Samtidigt som finanskrisen tvingar många att lägga i handbromsen, så passar andra på att lägga i en högre växel. Idag offentliggjorde Patrik Sandell, tidigare juniorvärldsmästaren i rally, att han skrivit avtal med Red Bull Rally Team, och igår berättade Patrik Flodin att han är klar för det ryska teamet URT som han vann finaltävlingen för i det ryska mästerskapet och VM- deltävlingen i Rally Wales. Båda förarna ingår i SMSC, Swedish National Rally Team. - Patrik och Patrik visade tidigt potensial och stryka internationellt. Därför är det fantastiskt att de nu har kontrakt som gör det möjligt att köra hela Production World Rally Championship (PWRC), säger förbundskapten Anders Dawidson. - Vi har jobbat stenhårt för att få ihop en lösning för 2009, och när Red Bull hörde av sig och frågade om vi ville köra för dem, var det inget svårt beslut direkt, säger Patrik Sandell. Sandell ska tillsammans med co-drivern Emil Axelsson köra en Skoda Fabia Super 2000, alltså samma mästerskap och klass som han tävlade i under 2008 för Peugeot Sverige. Därmed är de ensamma i WRC-sammanhang om att ha kört två år i rad med en Super 2000-bil. Flodin och Göran Bergsten ska köra en Subaru N14, i princip den från VM- finalen i Wales. - Det här känns riktigt fint och under året kommer bilen att uppdateras när nya delar blir inklassade. Det kommer förhoppningsvis att geännu mer effekt, säger Patrik Flodin. Flodin genomför inom kort ett test i Ryssland och startar i den första deltävlingen i ryska mästerskapet. Därefter väntar VM-deltävlingen i Norge 11-15 februari.

Press Inform Ation
PRESS INFORM ATION Grönholm powers dominant Ford Focus to victory in Sweden Sweden, 11th of February 2007 - Marcus Grönholm and Timo Rautiainen won their fifth Swedish Rally today as BP-Ford World Rally Team closed to within a point of the leaders in the FIA World Rally Championship. The Finns dominated this second round of the 16-event series in their Ford Focus RS World Rally Car, winning 11 of the 20 snow and ice-bound speed tests. Team-mates Mikko Hirvonen and Jarmo Lehtinen claimed their eighth podium in the last 11 rallies by finishing third in another Focus RS. The 39-year-old Finn led the four-day rally in central Sweden from midway through the first leg. He stamped his authority on the rally with five consecutive special stage victories yesterday and was able to pace himself through today's final leg. Grönholm's 26th career victory took him to equal second in the all-time standings alongside Carlos Sainz. Drivers tackled 342.09km of stages, the bulk clustered around the small town of Hagfors, 90km north of the rally base in Karlstad. Frozen roads and plenty of snow ensured near- perfect conditions throughout. While the weather was relatively mild for a Scandinavian winter during the first two legs, today's final action was played out in bitterly cold temperatures that plunged to -22°C this morning as drivers prepared for the final five tests covering 86.32km. Grönholm enjoyed a troublefree rally throughout and won a further three stages today to finish 53.8sec ahead of Sébastien Loeb and climb to second in the drivers' standings.

Swedish Rally
PRESS INFORM ATION BP-Ford's Finns target winter warmer in Swedish Rally Next week's Swedish Rally (8 -11 February) is the first half of a FIA World Rally Championship double-header in the Scandinavian winter that will provide BP-Ford World Rally Team with one of its most intense periods of the season. The first of two events in northern Europe on consecutive weekends, it is traditionally characterised by snow, ice and numbing cold which guarantee ideal driving conditions but place huge demands on man and machine. However, BP-Ford's all-Finnish line-up of Marcus Grönholm and Timo Rautiainen and team- mates Mikko Hirvonen and Jarmo Lehtinen will feel comfortable in the barren, ice-bound countryside of the Värmland region of central Sweden. They grew up in such conditions and their rallying careers encompassed winter competition from the very start. Along with the following weekend's Rally Norway, which starts just four days after the Swedish Rally finishes, this second round of the championship offers the harshest environment of the year. Temperatures can plunge as low as -30°C and the unrelenting cold requires huge resolve and determination from technicians forced to lie in the snow and work on the team's Ford Focus RS World Rally Cars in such extremes. Grönholm, third on the opening round in France last month, enjoys the challenge of winter driving. The Finn, who celebrates his 39th birthday on Monday, has won here on four occasions from 14 starts, including in a Focus RS last year. The rally suits northern Europeans and only one non-Nordic driver has won in the 44-year history of the event.
