    Henning Solberg in a Fiesta

    According to norwegian website http://www.norsk-rally.com Henning Solberg will be driving a Ford Fiesta ST in the first round of the Norwegian Rally Championship, Mountain Rally Norway, coming saturday.

    "It`s just for fun, but I`m really looking forward to it", says Henning in a press-release, and adds that the Fiesta is the smallest and least powerful of all rallycars he has driven.

    As I recall Henning Solberg has never driven anything else but 4WD cars in rallying since he started his career in a Toyota Celica ST165 in 1996. Before that he ran a Volvo 242 in hillclimb and rallycross, and a Ford Escort Cosworth Group N in the European Rallycross Championship 1995. He has also done a few guest appearances in tarmac racing in a Honda Civic VTEC and a Porsche 996.

    Good ol’ Henning, is Loisl Alzheimer also on your heels already…? Did Henning not start his RX career with a RWD Ford Escort Mk2…?
