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. mahbx.com Radio caught up with him recently ahead of the thir🌠d round in the championship...

mahbx.com:
Henning, how much are you looking forward 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 the rally though🌺 how exactly we get on.

mahbx.com:
You showed great pace in Sweden but in the end missed༒ out on a podium. Does that make you extra determine🧔d to try and do well this weekend?

HS:
Of course. I really need some points.

mahbx.com:
What have you made of the Pirelli tyres this y🍬ear and how have you got on with the new 'Scorpion' gravel tyres that you will use this weekend for the first time?

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

mahbx.com:
Is this event going to be any di🐬fferen𓃲t without run-flat mousse?

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

mahbx.com:
How much of a be💙nefit is it using th⭕e 07 Focus this year?

HS:
For me I like it. I re🐻ally enjoyed using it in Sweden - I have to say that. But I don't know how it will be here until we s🦹tart the rally.

mahbx.com:
How h🐻ave your pre-event preparations gone for Mexic🍨o?

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

mahbx.com:
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.

mahbx.com:
You finished fift𓃲h in Mexico in 2006 and were ninth last year. What sort of result are you aiming for this w🍷eekend?

HS:
Top-three. I think my position on the road on Friday ൲will help me. It will give me a much better [aওnd cleaner] line.

mahbx.com:
What difference if any will it make being nominated for the Munchi's team this✤ weekend as opposed to fo✨r the Stobart squad?

HS:
I hope I can get some points for them and then maybe they can help me with some free🅷 i🌳ce cream in Argentina and then it will be OK!

mahbx.com:
What targets hav▨ꦜe you set yourself for the year as a whole?

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