Rallying is some of the toughest racing in the world. Drivers have to tackle changing weather conditions and roads that vary from gravel to dirt to tarmac. There are blind corners lined with trees and people throughout. It's not for the feint of heart.

And if you win a championship, like Petter Solberg did, that means you're one of the best drivers in the world. Ask him anything you want about rallying, racing, winning, and just being a badass.

Petter Solberg entered the World Rally Championship for the first time in 2000 and won his first rally in 2002. In 2003, while driving for the works Subaru Prodrive team, he won the whole magilla, his first World Rally Championship.
