FIA World Rally Championship icon Petter Solberg has confirmed he will contest the 2025 Race Of Champions in Sydney with his son Oliver.

The duo won the ROC Nations Cup in 2024 on snow in Sweden but will be back on asphalt at Stadium Australia in the city’s west come March 7-8.

Night one comprises the Nations Cup where two-driver teams will compete for their respective country. Night two sees every driver go head-to-head for the champion of champions honour.

In a slightly bizarre twist, Oliver will compete for Sweden on night two but will compete for Team Norway in the Nations Cup with his father Petter.
