Anybody with that sort of enthusiasm is just plain fun to watch. In fact, he and Henning are the only 2 WRC drivers with any personality at all these days! The problem is that WRC is down to 2 factory teams, both who have been around forever. It doesn't take long to fill those 4 driver seats and Petter is now an 'oldtimer'. If another manufacturer jumps in next year, Petter would have to be at the top of anyone's shopping list.
For this year, being team owner/driver .... well, that almost NEVER works out. How can one concentrate on driving while running the team as well? He's said this year is sort of all or nothing. Unlikely he'll be back next year under his own money, unless a miracle happens and he wins some rallies.
I've also heard he might move to Euro LeMans Series!
