I can`t actually remember the Escort MK2, but maybe it`s the Alzheimer playing me tricks. Petter Solberg started in a MK2 Escort in 1994 - and possibly he "inherited" this car from Henning, who ran it in 93...?

When it comes to the Fiesta drive last saturday, Henning did a great job and had a lot of fun. I don`t think many drivers in 4WD cars was any faster than him on the downhill and tight sections during the rally. Actually codriver Cato Menkerud said that he had lots of time with the pace-notes when they were running uphill, but he read notes in WRC style when they were going downhill!

My vote goes to the guy who said before Rally Norway last year that Henning would win it. :) :)

Quite many changes (tyres,drivers) for this year, better maybe to wait a few rounds and see before start to predict anything.

unfortunately for the sick dogs the changes are universal.....same like the passive diffs some time ago...Sick dogs remained sick and the rally drivers drove the carsand won championships.

Yes Henning drove the Escort MK2 and a Volvo340/360 before the 240.
But even before that he used to race beaten up vw beetles :D

True most likely he will win, but in a motorsport many things can happen.
