There's no doubt that we have a driver with fighting spirit in the team. As you
already know, the Pewano project is about Scandinavias largest initiative for
building competitive Rally Raid cars to the Dakar Rally - but the story behind
Pewano is also about an impressive comeback.


This week GT/Expressen published an article about Pelle's comeback. Winning
an almost impossible fight against cancer in 2005 - and now 2011, be the
team-owner and driver for Pewano.


Translated from the swedish article:

"The doctors gave him a few months to live. He was in a wheelchair, had spine cancer and was in excruciating pain. One cough was enough for breaking a rib. This was 2005. Since then, Pelle Wallentheim has been driving the world's toughest rally twice and is now aiming for a third Dakar next year, and with Tina Thörner in the team."
