Oreca Testing

Le Mans-testing was a thrilling experience. I never thought I could cope with the others from the start, but I did – what a boost for my confidence. And it is also good to know that it worked well behind the wheel again. Oreca seems to be a fantastic team, and the other drivers are fantastic guys. Team-manager, Hugues de Chaunac, is a great man with a big heart. What happens next, well – I’ll guess we know more in a couple of weeks.

Fantastic Petter!
Of course it worked well behind the wheel! I don’t know how it could be bad? You’re one of the greatest driver no matter what you drive!
Wow its funny to see you in a different kind of car. Glad you had a good time, and just shows that the old saying is true, as one door closes another door opens… Good luck with whatever you decide to do…
Thats great news. I’m in the US and it would be nice to watch you drive again on TV, we haven’t had WRC coverage for a few years now.
Raikonnen had better watch his back….
RED 5……Was that not a World Champions Number from the Nineties…??
Nice work petter. That looks like a blast and very quick! It’s great to see you trying somthing different!!
Good Luck
Matt
Good to see you had fun!!
New helmet!! It looks good
Det der så fantastisk morsomt ut! Helt sikkert godt for deg å få “lettet” litt på trykket etter så mye pes i det siste. Synes nå det er litt småkjipt at du ikke skal kjøre Impreza, du du er Petter Impreza Solberg. Men håper du uansett knuser all motstand med nybilen, så kanskje de innser at det er prodrive som har tatt noen dårlige avgjørelser i forhold til bygging av bil. Det er iallefall steike bra at du holder koken! Stå på!! Nå vet jeg ikke om du har tid til å lese bloggen din selv, men jeg skriver det nå på den måten lell jeg da.

I hope you will race in the 1,000 km of Spa or the 24 Hours of Le Mans with Team Oreca Matmut.

Go for it Petter!! Just go for it!
Jeg har aldri tvilt på deg!!
I saw the video of your test at VG’s site. It was just fantastic to see you “being your old self” again, being so excited about the test and the car! I hope you can take part in Le Mans, it would surely be a great experience!
very great ……..go petter
Kjempe bra Petter tipper dette gir deg skikkelig turbotrykk på selvtiliten foran Rally Norway.. Håper du kjører alle ned i snøsøla og vinner hele greia…..
Øyvind
good luck, love you forever petter
Så klippet på VG TV, og det så skikkelig gøy ut!!
Morro å se at du behersker flere grener, da jeg tror du virkelig er et multitalent:)
Får håpe dette gir positive ringvirkninger til Rally Norway, og at du virkelig kan skape litt “action & surprise” i resultat lista der..
Er ikke sikkert at den raskeste bilen nødvendig vis vinner i Norge, da erfaring på snø kan utligne oddsen kraftig.
Bare du kjører sirkler rundt Loeb, er jeg fornøyd.
Det er vel ingen hemmelight at han ikke er noe snø talent?!
Great news both with the Le Mans and the Norway Rally look forward to seeing more of you on TV.
I’m a Scot living up here in Alaska.
Stå på i Rally Norway til helga, vinn hele greie og vis de andre hvem som er best !
Hvis det blir start på Le-Mans i june så er du garantert at en glad gjeng herfra heier på deg.
Det norske flagget vil vaie til ære for deg der nede. Se http://www.Tourlemans.com
