Fredrik Ahlin

Having impressed during the inaugural WRC Academy intake as part of the Pirelli Star Driver programme, the Swede returns in 2012 with Norwegian co-driver Morten Erik Abrahamsen. Ahlin was a podium finisher in Sardinia last term and will be looking to build on the experience gained - and the pace shown - in 2011 when he returns for a second season. Prior to taking up rallying in 2008, Ahlin raced karts for a five-year stretch.
