Henning Solberg secures Focus drive for 2005.
Henning Solberg has secured a part season in a 'works-assisted' Ford F💃ocus WR🐭C.
According to reports by the official W🧸RC website, the deal will see him compete in seven of the 16 events in 2005, beginning with the Swedish Rally in February, round two of the championship.
Although, Henning is not a part of the official For🎃d team, he will have the latest specification car and could be nominated for points on certain events 𝓀- in much the same way as Janne Tuohino substituted for Francois Duval in Sweden and Finland this season.

"We hope to fight among the six best in every round we will compete in, and in Sweden I will go for the podium," he told wrc.com.
"I'm really looking forward to driꦚving the vꦏery competitive Ford.
"I also look forward to working with Malcolm Wཧilson, and driving alongside Toni Gardemeister and Roman K🍌resta."
Henning, the brother of Petter Solberg, c🐼ontested seven WRC events this season, in a Bozian Peugeot 206.
M-Sport have now confirmed they will run fo🔴ur cars in 2005, the works Fords of Toni Gꦦardemeister and Roman Kresta, as well as a privately ran Focus for Anthony Warmbold. These drivers will contest all 16 events.
Four more drive💞rs are said to be in talks with M-Sport about running in privateer Ford's, including, so WRC insiders suggest, Subaru reject Mikko Hirvonen and Daniel Sola.
