World RX podium-finisher Krisztian Szabo will race an RX5 (Cross Car) in the Rallycross World Cup.
The 2016-17 Euro RX3 (Super1600) Champion also has three European Autocross titles to his name, along with three seasons of racing in World RX, finishing on the podium at Spa and Nurburgring in 2021 with the GRX-SET squad.
Having returned Volland Racing to finish on the RX3 podium at Nyirad in 2024, he will now make his maiden rallycross start in Cross Car machinery in Jakarta, Indonesia in December.
“Since I’ve known about the World Cup, I’ve wanted to take part,” he said. “As there is no RX3 category, it came to my mind that I could try RX5. I was European Champion in Autocross and it’s pretty close to RX5, so I’m really looking forward to sit back into a Cross Car and to race with Volland Racing again. I have some great memories with the team.
I don’t know what to expect, I plan to do some tests and I hope to have some great fights, somewhere in the front. I think it will be a great event and I wanted to be part of it because it will be historic.”
