Team principal at Team Hansen. Kenneth’s journey in rallycross is a remarkable one. He started in RX back in 1983 on a basic level with an old Volvo. With a determination and love to the sport he continued to build on his success and has earned 14 Gold medals in the FIA European Rallycross Championship during the years. An unbreakable record?
Today Kenneth has turned his focus on running the team instead of racing, but he still likes to have a test drive now and then not to loose the feeling and understanding of the cars. Kenneth likes to work and develop young drivers talent.
And he likes to win! Despite all the years of competition – to win is still the major desire that drives him forward each and every day.
Kenneth lives in Källby in Sweden with his wife Susann, who is the team’s manager. Together they have two boys, Timmy and Kevin. Both of them has inherited the passion for motorsport, especially rallycross.
Kenneth is balanced, warm hearted, street smart and not afraid to fight for what he believes in.
Susann Hansen

Susann brings a unique blend of the tactical and organisational skills that have been at the core of the development of the team.
Whether it is preseason preparation or race day management Susann is on the frontline of the team’s quest for success.
Susann’s skill set is grounded in her practical success as a driver having been the sports only female European champion in 1994. The same quiet determination and work ethic that brought her victory as a driver has been directed into the development of rallycross’s most successful team.
Professional, innovative, inspiring and driven all executed with a permanent, welcoming smile, that’s Susann Hansen.
