Petter and Chris third in Rallye Monte-Carlo.

After 5 days and 433 competitive kilometres, Petter and Chris today drove in to their first podium with Ford. Sebastien Loeb is the winner, while Dani Sordo ended second.

Rallye Monte-Carlo is Petters first event together with Ford, and with only two days of testing prior to the event, he is very happy with the result.

- This is just fantastic, says Petter. – I just love driving this car, it is unbelievably fast, and they say it is even faster on snow and gravel! It is so easy getting into rhythm with the car, and then the rest is just fun! Can’t wait to do Sweden next!

A total of 18 stages have been completed, with Petter and Chris setting the fastest time through four of them.

Next event is Rally Sweden, 10 – 12 February.
