Today Subaru announced that they have extended its contract with 27 year old Chris Atkinson until the end of the 2009 WRC season. Chris drove his first rally for SWRT in Sweden 2005, and has started in 42 rallies since. Petter looks forward to continue to work together with the Australian.

Chris says he is really happy about the signing, and that he also looks forward to continue driving for SWRT. Chris’ codriver is now Stephane Prevot, after Glenn MacNeall decided to step down after Rally Portugal this year.
