Jase Macalpine sits down with Pernilla Solberg for Chapter 419 of the Gypsy Tales Podcast to tell the story behind one of rally's most influential families. Pernilla never wanted to be the best female driver. She wanted to be the best driver, period. When one competitor told her that if she ever beat him, he'd put his helmet on the shelf, that's exactly what she did.Pernilla raced against the boys in Sweden throughout the late '90s, met Petter Solberg at Rally GB in 1998, and retired at 28 to raise their son Oliver, now a WRC driver in his own right. Today, she runs the Solberg motorsport operation, serves as President of the FIA World Rally Commission, and holds board seats across five family car companies.In this chapter, Pernilla gets into what it takes to run a rally team, why a Rally1 car can now cost $1.5 million with few buyers lining up, how modern PR is stripping motorsport of its biggest personalities, and why a new WRC owner could be days away from being announced. Plus, the sim racer who beat everyone with a Logitech taped to his kitchen table, the Norwegian Prime Minister who wrote Petter a letter about his swearing, and why Pernilla believes YouTube, not TV, has become the biggest engine in motorsport.Stay Hydrated - Order SOTA Fuelhttps://sotafuel.com/products/sota-fuel-hydration-30-pack?variant=42103959945258Drink AG1http://www.drinkag1.com/gypsytalesGet $10 Off BRUNT with code GYPSYGANG at https://bruntworkwear.com/GYPSYGANGFollow the Gypsy himself: https://www.instagram.com/jasemacalpine/SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST: https://www.youtube.com/@gypsytalespodcast?sub_confirmation=1Shop Gypsy Tales merch: https://gypsytales.comWatch more clips: https://www.youtube.com/@GYPSYTALESFOLLOW GYPSY TALES ON INSTAGRAM: @gypsytalespodcastListen on Spotify/Apple: https://pod.link/1335551721Business inquiries: [email protected]#PernillaSolberg #PetterSolberg #WRC #WorldRally #GypsyTalesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
