“Anna Andersson: ”He is Sweden’s greatest drivers 2018””
“A world title. Two runner-up finishes.”
“in 2018, the keep Sweden in its position as the world’s best bilsportnation.”
“in 2017 was a magical year for Swedish motorsport, with three world CUP titles in a single season. “
“A year later, WTCC, Thed Björk won, lost its world CHAMPIONSHIP status and Pontus Tidemand was defeated by his Czech team colleague in his SKODA once again won the WRC2.”
“The Swedish success depends mainly on Johan Kristoffersson dominated the world CHAMPIONSHIPS in rallycross and became historic when he won every race except one, and that Mattias Ekström finished second in the same championship. A world title and a second place, it succeeded, no other nation during the past season and it is the success of the Swedish motorsport should be proud.”
“When we now leave the 2018 and in 2019 there are many exciting driver to follow, but also three large losses.”
“▪ Volkswagen leaves the world CHAMPIONSHIP in rallycross. Thus forced to Johan Kristoffersson also a change of career. It will be circuit racing with WTCR, WRC2, or only the STCC in anticipation of something else?”
” ▪ Mattias Ekström leaves the world CHAMPIONSHIP in rallycross. His team lost fabriksstyrningen from Audi and are now selling their cars. What he should do in the future is not clear, but the 40-year-old swede has been one of the most successful drivers during his nearly 20 year long international career. He will be missed.”
“▪Sweden lose his place in F1. Marcus Ericsson was not given the new confidence, and it is a setback for Swedish motorsport. Although he has struggled to assert himself in Formula 1 he has had an important role as a model. Swedish talents have seen that it is possible to bring it all the way to the racingens kungaklass.”
“The positive thing is that Ericsson will leave F1 for IndyCar, one that is much more even and where he can hopefully find a way back to what once got him to love racing. To the joy of the fight man against man, and where he gets the opportunity to show their potential and fight for podiums again.”
“There he is joined by Felix Rosenqvist, the man always manages to win the race no matter what car you drive in, have selected a bet in the united states, and he makes it the team that won the championship in 2018.”
“this means that The Swedish bilport has fine conditions for the 2019, never before have the two swedes run throughout the seasons in the Irl, Thed Björk in the running for a title in the WTCR and Johan Kristoffersson has all the prerequisites to continue his rampage.”
“Behind the headlines that the stars create is also a promising regrowth, for example, Linus Lundqvist, who despite a tight budget trying to hit on the way towards Formula 1, and in the USA Rasmus Lindh launched an exciting bet against the Irl.”
“It gives a faith in the future.”
“Despite the fact that Sweden is losing its place in F1, and that Johan Kristoffersson and Mattias Ekström will leave the world CHAMPIONSHIP in rallycross. “
“Footnote: the FIA has four world CUP; Formula 1, rally, rallycross and the WEC, but the latter is determined first in 2019 and is therefore not included in the assembly.”
“1) Johan Kristoffersson”
“His streak in the world CHAMPIONSHIP in rallycross is impressive. Eleven wins in twelve races. He is the most dominant of all the wrc drivers 2018. Now leave the VW world CUP and Kristoffersson do not yet know what he will do in 2019.”
“for three seasons, he has won a world title and finished in second place the past two seasons. A strong effort by the swede that now he will leave the world CUP . He will be missed.”
“no matter what car he has, he wins the race. The last two years he has established himself in the elbilsmästerskapet Formula E and in the weekend he is driving this year’s premiere in Saudi Arabia. But in 2019, he wants to continue to develop and select the Irl – where he gets a chance next to the last year’s champion of the Chip driving for stewart-haas Racing. “
“He followed up the victory in the WRC2 2018, with a second-place finish behind teamkollegan. Once again a strong effort by camden, but what happens now? He dreams of the WRC. Behind him are then Emil Bergqvist and Dennis Rådström who were successful in the junior world CUP in 2018. “
“It was five seasons in F1 for the swede, but even if he is tredjeförare for Sauber in 2019 the focus will be on IndyCar. There will be a fresh start and an exciting challenge in a championship that is decided on the regular race tracks, city circuits and ovals.”
“He left formula car for the DTM and took a victory during his debut season. The swede stay in the championship again next year.”
“Cyan Racing bet against a title in WTCR. Björk, who won the RACE a year ago satisfied never with the second best. Co-operation becomes once again a winning combination? “
“He left Sweden to debut in the USF1 2000, a supporterserie to the Irl. Already during the premiärsäsongen, he distinguished himself with a second place in the championship.”
“Marcus’s little brother had it a little heavier in the british F4, but the first races in british F3 were promising. Is a new Ericsson on the way to the top?”
“Peugeot will leave the world CHAMPIONSHIPS in rallycross. What happens with the two talented brothers? Hansen motorsport is a part of the rallycrossens soul of the plot may come up with a gift so give the brothers Hansen justa conditions for 2019. “
