opinion from somebody who won in his first rally with a fabia in wrc rally Sandell and Al-Attiyah counts.So your guess for Monte Lambros? :D


my guess is that Henning is not going to be near top 4-5 in terms of speed.
I count very high Mikkelsen,Hanninen and believe to be fastest crews without ''problems''

It is a very difficult event cause of weather and road condition.
But i think that Peter Solberg, Hanninen, Henning Solberg and Mikkelsen are the favourites. You must not forget also Loix, Kopecky and many others.
If i had to bet only on one, that would be Peter if the weather is warm. Hanninen has done a lot of testing for monte and that is an advantage if the weather is cold...
It looks to be a very interesting rally, so i will go and watch closely as a spectator

That will undoubtedly come out as a huge mistake...

What!s there to laugh about?!? I'm not a Henning fan - and Ford fan neither, but...!!!

Henning Solberg is gone ahead of ALL S-WRC pilots this year at tarmac events he uses Fiesta S2000. So he is an underdog.

And Petter Solberg is never succesful @MC. May be because of Impreza.

MC is all about tyre choices and driving skills. You can be fast but black ice is faster than anyone else :)

Yes Henning can be faster then Petter. :p :

I could be wrong, but one year Petter was leading the Monte. Then crashed badly on some snow fans had threw on the road? So Petter could still be competitive, he's never driven an S2000? That would be more of a handicap I think than the Monte itself.

Henning is fast atleast in the Fiesta S2000, but he always does seem to find problems.
