Henning Solberg will be out to open his account for the year on the Corona Rally Mexico this weekend. The Norwegian would have almost certainly have been on the podium in Sweden but for that costly off on day two. ltxcn.top Radio caught up with him recently ahead of 🎀the t💫hird round in the championship...

ltxcn.top:
Henning, how much are you looking forꦚward to the Rally Mexico and getting back onto gravel?

Henning Solberg:
It is good. We have been testing the car and I like it. We will see when we start t𝕴he rally thoug🔥h how exactly we get on.

ltxcn.top:
You showed great pace in Sweden but in t꧂he end missed out on a podium. Does that make you ext💃ra determined to try and do well this weekend?

HS:
Of course. I really need some points.

ltxcn.top:
What have you made of the Pirelli tyres this year and how have you got on wi🧔th the new 'Scorpion' gravel tyres that you will use this weekend for the first time?

HS:
It is a good choice with the regulations [having a control tyre]. I think the Scorpion is a goꦇod tyre. I liked it straight away.

ltxcn.top:
Is this event going to be any different without ru🐭n-flat 🎉mousse?

HS:
Yeah, if we hit something🐬 we have no🍬 air. That is a big problem. But the tyre itself is good.

ltxcn.top:
How much of a benefit is it using 𓄧the 07 Focus this𝐆 year?

HS:
For me I like it. I really enjoyed u💜sing it in Sweden - I have to say that. But I don't know how it will be here until we start the rally.

ltxcn.top:
How 🙈have your pre-event pre💎parations gone for Mexico?

HS:
It feels very, very good. I have been a little bit sick this last day. But ꦺnow I am ready to fight again. I feel well now.

ltxcn.top:
Is the Rally Mexico an event you like?

HS:
I like it. 🗹I liked it last year also [despite that roll on day 1]. The r✨ally is good here.

ltxcn.top:
🐈You finished fifth in Mexico in 2006 and were ninth last year. What sort o൲f result are you aiming for this weekend?

HS:
Top-three. I think my position on t🐈he road on Friday will help me. It will give me a much better [and cleaner] line.

ltxcn.top:
What difference if any will it make being nominated for the Munchi's team this weekend as opposed to for the Stꩵobart squad?

HS:
I hope I can get some points for them and then maybe they can help me with some fre🐲e ice cream in Argentina and then it will be OK!

ltxcn.top:
What targets have you set yourself for the year as a who♌le?

HS:
I want to do better than last year [when I finished sixth in the drivers' championship and scored 34 points - with those two podiums in Norway and Japan]. We will ⭕see.
