Petter Solberg has announced that he will contest his home WRC event, Rally Norway, in a Citroen Xsara.

Solberg, who will miss this weekend's opening round of the World Rally Championship in Ireland, stated on his website:

"I can now confirm that we will start Rally Norway in a Citroen Xsara 2006 model.

A lot has to (be) organized before we come to Hamar. Information regarding the team, who will run the car and sponsors will be announced at a press conference before Rally Norway."

Solberg fans will have to wait until the press conference to learn if the Norwegian will contest the remainder of the 2009 season in the Xsara.  He has been rumoured to have been in talks with both Ford and Proton.
