coming from Montalegre, Portugal,
where the FIA World Rallycross
Championship started its 2015 season with celebration from the Swedish
side.
Johan Kristoffersson, well known for winning the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship,
the Italia-based V8 Superstars and
the Porsche Cup Scandinavia, won his
first World RX event in his third
rallycross season with a Volkswagen Polo
from the Team Sweden squad.
The
changing weather in the Portuguese circuit wasn't a problem for Kristoffersson
as he passed with ease for the heats and the semifinals, and combined with an
early joker lap strategy on the final race, he overcame the winner of the 2014
Portugal RX event and reigning world champion Petter Solberg.
Now that
Kristoffersson has a team to race the whole season, we can expect good things
from him in the rounds to come. He may even be a title contender this year.
