EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 2002 World Rally Championship, we witness the unfortunate turn of events for Petter Solberg and Phil Mills. Driving their Subaru Impreza WRC 2002 with sheer determination, they were holding an impressive third place on the final day of the Rally of New Zealand in Auckland. However, fate had a different plan for them as their engine suffered a devastating failure. The image captures the intensity and adrenaline-filled atmosphere that surrounds rally racing. The vibrant colors of the car against the picturesque backdrop of New Zealand's landscape create a visually stunning scene. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of disappointment, there is beauty to be found. Petter Solberg, hailing from Norway, and his co-driver Phil Mills from Great Britain showcased their exceptional skills throughout this championship event. Their dedication and expertise brought them within reach of victory before being thwarted by mechanical misfortune. This photograph encapsulates both triumph and defeat - a testament to the unpredictable nature of motorsport. It immortalizes an unforgettable moment in rallying history when Solberg's dreams slipped away but left an indelible mark on fans worldwide who witnessed his valiant effort until that fateful engine failure occurred on that October day back in 2002.
