When Oliver was two years old, in 2003, Dad Petter Solberg took the World Cup gold in a rally in Wales. Next week's World Cup series in the same country will be a milestone for both: dad's last and son's first.
- Of course, it will be especially special to get the World Cup debut in a rally from which Dad has such good memories, says the son to the newspaper.
But first, it was just that detail with the driver's license. Of course there was nothing wrong with the driving habit, but worse with the theory test.
- I didn't pass the theory on the first try. I was completely shaken when I tried again. I've never been so nervous, he tells Norwegian VG.
But on Wednesday, he could breathe out, when both theory and the drive were clear.
Now he can drive a car for the first time on a regular road, perfectly legal. But the fact is that he has already won a victory in the rally European Championships in Latvia, where the driving license rules are different.
