Subaru's Petter Solb🌠erg has retired from the Telstra Rally Australia, after hitting a rock in SS4 and going off the road.

The ꦿNorwegian, and his co-driver, Phil Mills were unhurt in the incident, however they were unable to continue.

"It's too bad, I did🌄n't want to end the season like this, but that's just how it is sometimes," reflected 'Hollywood'.

"I was 5.8km from the start line on a right hand, third-gear corner and there was a rock on the apex, which I hit and broke the end of the steering 🍌arm. After that we couldn't steer and went off the road on the other side. Apart from that, the car is okay.

"We'🎃ll get it fixed and I'm looking forward to getting out there again tomorrow."

Solberg had been running second✅ overall, around 10 seconds behind leader, Marcus Gronholm.
