Oliver Solberg in the lead after day 2

Heading into the overnight break, Solberg leads by 23 seconds over Roope Korhonen and 45 seconds over Georg Linnamäe.

Solberg, who has already won the past two editions of Rally Sweden, has established himself as a dominant force on the snow-covered roads of Västerbotten. This year, he appears to be continuing on the same path, impressing with his stable and controlled driving alongside his new Toyota.

With a solid lead ahead of the weekend’s final eleven stages, it looks like Solberg has laid the foundation for yet another victory. If he maintains his current form, few will be able to challenge him for the top spot. Saturday and Sunday will decide everything, but for now, Oliver Solberg seems well on his way to lifting the winner’s trophy for the third year in a row.

For the people of Umeå, where Rally Sweden has become a natural part of everyday life, Solberg is a clear poster boy and an idol. With his positive energy, he has become one of the biggest personalities in the competition, and there is no doubt that he has his sights set on yet another triumph in Umeå.
