13 Apr 2018|2,421 views
It is a welcome fate that befalls every world champion. In 2018, Volkswagen and the PSRX Volkswagen Sweden team have to take on the challenge of defending their FIA World Rallycross Championship title. In Barcelona, Spain, on 14th and 15th April, world champion Johan Kristoffersson and PSRX team owner and his team-mate Petter Solberg will now be the ones everyone wants to beat.
They will be supported by Volkswagen Motorsport; the world champion team from 2017 will receive technical support from Hanover and Wolfsburg in the form of the carefully enhanced 562bhp Polo R Supercar. The season runs from mid-April to the end of November and consists of 12 races on three continents.
"Winning titles is one thing, but it is often more difficult to retain them," says Volkswagen Motorsport Director Sven Smeets. "We are proud of what we have achieved together with the PSRX Volkswagen Sweden team. However, every team is starting from scratch in the new season, and the competition is extremely strong this year." As well as Volkswagen, Peugeot, Hyundai, Renault and Audi are supporting teams in the World Rallycross Championship.
