Publisher's Synopsis
Petter Solberg was never just another driver-he was a showman, a champion, and a phenomenon. From the icy roads of Norway to the muddy forests of Wales and the electrifying arenas of rallycross, Solberg carved out a legendary career built on heart, horsepower, and an unshakable will to win. This definitive biography charts his meteoric rise from local rallycross prodigy to 2003 World Rally Champion with Subaru, and his stunning reinvention as a double FIA World Rallycross Champion with a team he built from scratch.
Told in rich, fact-based narrative, the book explores Solberg's most iconic victories, his rivalries with Sébastien Loeb and Marcus Grönholm, his struggles with unreliable cars, and his triumphant return as a privateer. It also delves into his role as a mentor, father, team principal, and global ambassador for the sport-highlighting the Solberg family legacy that continues through his son, Oliver.
Packed with passion, personality, and precision, Petter Solberg: Flat Out and Fearless is not just a motorsport biography-it's a tribute to one of racing's most beloved and influential figures.
