It's nothing official bur there is a strong rumor that son of 2003 WRC champion Petter called Oliver Solberg has signed a three year deal with Škoda Motorsport and that he will be next season in WRC2 category with an official Škoda team.

I already wrote that Škoda wanted to pull the plug on the works program and wanted only a customer program to survive but if this is the true then we could see young Solberg in action on the WRC stages.

Just to say that Oliver Solberg started his WRC2 career with his family's Volkswagen Polo R5 rally car, which was bought by his father Petter after his works drive with that car in Catalunya last season.

Oliver SOlberg has the knowledge and he has the best mentor in his father Petter so it won't be a problem to progress on the world scene fast.

Until the confirmation, we can only wait and enjoy some video of him.
