Hard on the heels of the announcement that M-Sport has secured
funding for its 2013 World Rally Championship campaign from the State of Qatar comes the
news that Mads Østberg and Jonas Andersson are joining the team.
The Norwegian driver scored a top-five finish on each of the 11 rounds he
contested in 2012 and finished fourth overall in the drivers’ championship,
just 5 points behind Jari Matti Latvala in third.
Ostberg has been nominated as Qatar M-Sport World Rally Team’s point
scorers for all 13 rounds of next season’s championship.
