Victory was the goal and victory was the result for 22 year old Pontus Tidemand when Rally de Portugal, the first rally in this year’s Junior World Championship, took place during the weekend.

Already on the second stage of the rally, Pontus took the lead and managed to keep it all the way until the finish on Saturday evening.

“It feels really great to start the international season with a victory. It was a very tough rally on rough and rocky roads. Ola and I have had a fantastic weekend where everything has worked perfectly and I’ve been able to just focus on my driving,” says Pontus, who can participate in the championship thanks to support from EVEN Management.
